What we check first in Brierley Hill
The highway authority for local roads in Brierley Hill is Dudley 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 Brierley Hill 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 Dudley Council before posts go in.
External yard bollards can be root-fixed in concrete foundations, with the usual checks for buried drainage and cables. 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.
- Where impact performance matters, ask for products tested to PAS 13 and match the stated performance to your vehicles.
From survey to handover
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.
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. |
| 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. |
| Polymer impact bollards | Flex and recover on impact, reducing damage to anchors, floor and vehicle. Need clearance to deflect. |
Pricing warehouse impact bollards in Brierley Hill
Two Brierley Hill jobs with the same number of posts can price quite differently. The usual reasons:
- Removal of damaged existing protection
- Out-of-hours or phased working around operations
- Steel or polymer bollards and the impact performance needed
Looking after them
On steel bollards look for bending, cracked welds, loose or sheared anchors and cracked concrete around the base plate. Repaint or recoat steel posts when the yellow is worn, because faded protection is easier to miss.
For damaged or loose posts in Brierley Hill, repairs and replacements are priced in writing first.

Do I need consent for warehouse impact bollards on a public footway in Brierley Hill?

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.
