Before we dig in Warwick
The highway authority for local roads in Warwick 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.
If your site in Warwick is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (Warwickshire County Council) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
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. The slab is the foundation, and it decides what can be fixed where.
- 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.
How the job runs
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.
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 |
|---|---|
| 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. |
| Diameters and heights | Commonly 114–273 mm diameter and around 600–1,200 mm high, chosen for vehicle type and mast or fork height. |
| Cast-in or base-plated | Base plates suit existing slabs. External yard posts can be cast into concrete foundations for heavier duty. |
What moves the price in Warwick
When we price warehouse impact bollards in Warwick, these make the biggest difference:
- Number of positions and types of guard
- Steel or polymer bollards and the impact performance needed
- Removal of damaged existing protection
Keeping them working
Repaint or recoat steel posts when the yellow is worn, because faded protection is easier to miss. Polymer bollards should return to their original shape; one that stays deformed or has split needs replacing.
For damaged or loose posts in Warwick, repairs and replacements are priced in writing first.

Who gives permission for bollards on the pavement in Warwick?
In Warwick, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from Warwickshire County Council, the local highway authority. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.
What's a typical price for warehouse impact bollards in Warwick?
In Warwick, typically £175–£1,195 per bollard, supplied and fixed, plus VAT, with a minimum job of £445 plus VAT, using our West Midlands guide prices. The fixed figure comes in writing after we've seen the site.
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.
How close to a column should a bollard sit?
Close enough that a vehicle cannot reach the column around it, but with enough gap that the bollard does not hit the column when struck. Polymer bollards need more clearance than steel because they deflect. The gap is set from the product data.
