Permissions and groundwork in Rhyl
Before digging near the kerb in Rhyl we establish who owns the ground: adopted footways are Denbighshire County Council's responsibility, trunk roads the Welsh Government's, and everything else belongs to the site owner.
Bollards on private land often don't need planning permission, but it depends on the council's view, the height and the location; in a conservation area, next to a listed building or under an Article 4 direction, ask the local planning authority (Denbighshire County Council) first — we flag this at survey.
Warehouse floors vary from thick reinforced slabs to thin toppings over older concrete, and some contain underfloor heating, ducting or wire-guidance systems for automated trucks that must not be cut. Where a slab is too thin or poor, the options include through-bolting, a larger base plate to spread load, a polymer bollard that reduces anchor forces, or breaking out and casting a new local foundation.
- Keep fire exits, escape routes and fire equipment accessible; bollards must not narrow escape routes below their required width.
- Check with the building owner before drilling into slabs with underfloor heating, guidance wires or post-tensioned reinforcement.
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.
Fix, torque and mark
Bollards and guards are fixed and torqued, then any associated floor markings are applied so drivers can see protected zones.
Finishes and options
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Polymer impact bollards | Flex and recover on impact, reducing damage to anchors, floor and vehicle. Need clearance to deflect. |
| Column and rack end guards | Wrap-around or corner protectors for columns and racking uprights where a single post will not fit. |
| Diameters and heights | Commonly 114–273 mm diameter and around 600–1,200 mm high, chosen for vehicle type and mast or fork height. |
Pricing warehouse impact bollards in Rhyl
Two Rhyl jobs with the same number of posts can price quite differently. The usual reasons:
- Out-of-hours or phased working around operations
- Removal of damaged existing protection
- Slab condition and the anchors or foundations it needs
Looking after them
Inspect warehouse bollards regularly as part of routine site checks, and after any reported impact. Polymer bollards should return to their original shape; one that stays deformed or has split needs replacing.
We can also service, repair or replace existing posts anywhere in Rhyl.

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.
What is PAS 13?
PAS 13 is a code of practice for safety barriers used in workplaces, including a method for impact testing them. Products tested to it state how much impact they can take. It helps compare products on performance rather than appearance.
