Before we dig in Kirkby-in-Ashfield
Nottinghamshire County Council is the highway authority covering Kirkby-in-Ashfield's local roads. If any post would stand on adopted highway rather than your land, that consent is the first thing we sort out.
Many private-land installations in Kirkby-in-Ashfield need no planning application, but the rules don't clearly cover bollards, so listed buildings, conservation areas and prominent frontages are worth raising with the planning team at the council for Ashfield before posts go in.
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. Anchors need enough edge distance from slab joints and cracks or they will split the concrete on first impact.
- Where impact performance matters, ask for products tested to PAS 13 and match the stated performance to your vehicles.
- Keep fire exits, escape routes and fire equipment accessible; bollards must not narrow escape routes below their required width.
From survey to handover
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.
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.
Options to consider
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Column and rack end guards | Wrap-around or corner protectors for columns and racking uprights where a single post will not fit. |
| Cast-in or base-plated | Base plates suit existing slabs. External yard posts can be cast into concrete foundations for heavier duty. |
| Door frame protection | Bollards or low barriers either side of dock doors and roller shutters to protect frames and guides. |
What affects the quote
Our East Midlands guide prices are a starting point; the survey in Kirkby-in-Ashfield firms them up. What tends to move them:
- Slab condition and the anchors or foundations it needs
- Number of positions and types of guard
- Out-of-hours or phased working around operations
After installation
On steel bollards look for bending, cracked welds, loose or sheared anchors and cracked concrete around the base plate. Persistent strikes in one place often mean the route or turning space needs changing rather than heavier protection.
We can also service, repair or replace existing posts anywhere in Kirkby-in-Ashfield.

Sometimes, using larger base plates, through-bolts or polymer bollards that reduce anchor loads. If the slab is too thin or damaged, a new local foundation may be needed. We check the slab before recommending a fixing.
