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
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.
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.

Should we choose steel or polymer warehouse bollards?
Steel suits lighter traffic and sound, thick slabs where cost matters most. Polymer suits busy forklift areas where repeated impacts would destroy anchors and floors. Polymer often costs more to buy but less to keep in service.
Can bollards be fixed to a thin warehouse floor?
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.
