Things people ask before a Burton upon Trent bollard install
Can you do automatic bollards with intercom or ANPR?
Yes. We wire in loops, fobs, intercoms or ANPR cameras depending on how the site needs to manage access, and commission the system end-to-end.
How quickly can you install bollards in Burton upon Trent?
Lead time depends on the bollard spec, but most fixed and removable installs in Burton upon Trent are booked within a couple of weeks of a signed quote. Automatic and crash-rated jobs need longer for the units to come in.
Can the install be done out of hours?
Yes, where access permits. Most retail and forecourt installs in Burton upon Trent can be done in a single day, but evening or early-morning slots are an option if shutting in trading hours isn't.
Do you supply the bollards as well as install?
Usually yes. We can also install bollards you've already bought if they're a sensible spec for the site — we'll flag it before quoting if they aren't.
Can you install crash-rated PAS 68 bollards in Burton upon Trent?
Yes. PAS 68 / IWA 14 schemes have to be installed to the foundation depths in the test certificate, which usually means deeper cores and different fixings. We've installed plenty.
What's included in the price?
Bollard, fixings, coring, structural set, surface reinstatement, traffic management if needed, and removal of waste. Quotes are itemised so it's clear what's covered.
