What we check first in Windsor
In Windsor, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from Windsor and Maidenhead Council, the local highway authority. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.
If your site in Windsor is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (Windsor and Maidenhead Council) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
The slab is the foundation, and it decides what can be fixed where. External yard bollards can be root-fixed in concrete foundations, with the usual checks for buried drainage and cables.
- Check with the building owner before drilling into slabs with underfloor heating, guidance wires or post-tensioned reinforcement.
- Keep fire exits, escape routes and fire equipment accessible; bollards must not narrow escape routes below their required width.
Installation, step by step
Walk the site with the vehicles running
At the free site survey we watch traffic routes, note the vehicles and loads, and look for existing damage that shows where impacts happen. You receive a fixed written quote with each position and product listed.
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.
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.
Finishes and options
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Door frame protection | Bollards or low barriers either side of dock doors and roller shutters to protect frames and guides. |
| Diameters and heights | Commonly 114–273 mm diameter and around 600–1,200 mm high, chosen for vehicle type and mast or fork height. |
| Polymer impact bollards | Flex and recover on impact, reducing damage to anchors, floor and vehicle. Need clearance to deflect. |
What affects the quote
When we price warehouse impact bollards in Windsor, these make the biggest difference:
- Number of positions and types of guard
- Steel or polymer bollards and the impact performance needed
- Slab condition and the anchors or foundations it needs
After installation
Persistent strikes in one place often mean the route or turning space needs changing rather than heavier protection. Inspect warehouse bollards regularly as part of routine site checks, and after any reported impact.
We can also service, repair or replace existing posts anywhere in Windsor.
