Rules for warehouse impact bollards in England
Bollards on adopted highway are a matter for the highway authority under the Highways Act 1980, so they need its written agreement. On private land the owner's agreement is what matters; listed buildings and conservation areas need a word with the planning team first. Accessibility guidance asks for posts at least 1,000 mm high with contrasting tops and no chains between them.

How installation works
Check the slab
Slab thickness, joints, cracks and any underfloor services or heating are checked, and anchors are chosen for the floor rather than taken from a standard list.
Plan around operations
Work is phased by aisle or zone, or done out of hours, with each area barriered off while drilling. Dust is controlled with extraction where products are stored nearby.
Drill and anchor
Holes are drilled, cleaned and anchors installed to the maker's instructions. Chemical anchors are left to cure before the bollard is loaded.
Fix, torque and mark
Bollards and guards are fixed and torqued, then any associated floor markings are applied so drivers can see protected zones.

Who do I ask about bollards on public land in Berkshire?
For local roads, Bracknell Forest Council, Reading Council, Slough Council, West Berkshire Council, Windsor and Maidenhead Council and Wokingham Council; National Highways covers motorways and trunk roads. Bollards on adopted highway need the highway authority's written agreement.
How close to a column should a bollard sit?
Close enough that a vehicle cannot reach the column around it, but with enough gap that the bollard does not hit the column when struck. Polymer bollards need more clearance than steel because they deflect. The gap is set from the product data.
Can you install while the warehouse is operating?
Usually yes, by working zone by zone with each area barriered off, or by working nights or weekends. Drilling dust is controlled near stored goods. We agree the phasing with your site manager.
