Before we dig in Kenilworth
The highway authority for local roads in Kenilworth is Warwickshire County Council; motorways and trunk roads sit with National Highways. Warehouse impact bollards on the adopted footway are a matter for the highway authority, so we only install there with its written agreement.
Many private-land installations in Kenilworth 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 Warwickshire County Council before posts go in.
Anchors need enough edge distance from slab joints and cracks or they will split the concrete on first impact. 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.
- Use your workplace transport risk assessment to decide where protection is needed, in line with HSE guidance on workplace transport.
- Keep fire exits, escape routes and fire equipment accessible; bollards must not narrow escape routes below their required width.
How the job runs
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.
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.
Choosing the right spec
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Steel bollards | Yellow-coated steel tube on a base plate, often concrete-filled. Robust and economical, but they pass impact loads straight into the slab. |
| Column and rack end guards | Wrap-around or corner protectors for columns and racking uprights where a single post will not fit. |
| Door frame protection | Bollards or low barriers either side of dock doors and roller shutters to protect frames and guides. |
What moves the price in Kenilworth
Our West Midlands guide prices are a starting point; the survey in Kenilworth firms them up. What tends to move them:
- Steel or polymer bollards and the impact performance needed
- Slab condition and the anchors or foundations it needs
- Number of positions and types of guard
Looking after them
Polymer bollards should return to their original shape; one that stays deformed or has split needs replacing. Inspect warehouse bollards regularly as part of routine site checks, and after any reported impact.
For damaged or loose posts in Kenilworth, repairs and replacements are priced in writing first.

Who gives permission for bollards on the pavement in Kenilworth?

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.
What size bollard do we need for forklifts?
That depends on the forklift's weight with load and how fast it travels near the asset, not just the post diameter. Tested products state their impact performance, which can be compared with your fleet. We size from your vehicles at the survey.
