Bollard Installers in Corby
If your Corby site needs bollards — to stop ram-raids, to control out-of-hours access, to protect a column or a gas meter — we install the right post for that specific threat. The brief drives the spec, not the other way around.
What we install in Corby
We install bollards across Corby, Northamptonshire and the surrounding NN postcodes. From Willow Place, the Corporate Centre and the Earlstrees industrial estate, the brief changes site by site and we quote each one on its own merits.
For local authority work in Corby — public realm, town centres, parks — we install to the council's specification or supply our own with the test data. Most jobs run under a permit and we'll handle the application as part of the package.
For depot gates and yards in Corby we install fold-down and removable posts that let HGVs in without needing a bollard out of the ground every shift. Heavier-duty than retail kit and specced for the wear.
Insurance-driven installs in Corby usually need a written spec the insurer will accept. We give you a quote that lines up with what the underwriter wants to see, not just what looks fine on the day.
For automatic and rising bollards we handle the civils, the ducting, the control panel siting and the commissioning. If you've already had a survey or specifier involved, we install to their drawings.

How we install bollards on the ground in Corby
For paved or block-paver Corby sites we lift, cut, core and reinstate the pavers around the post so the finished area looks intact rather than patched.
Foundation depth on a standard 168mm steel post in Corby is typically 600–750mm into a freshly cored hole, set in a fast-curing structural mix. Crash-rated foundations are deeper and follow the test drawings exactly.

Corby bollard installation — common questions
Will you check for buried services before coring?
Always. We CAT scan, request drawings where available, and dig pilot holes before opening up. Hitting a service on a bollard install is avoidable.
How do I get a quote for Corby?
Use the quote form on this page with the Corby site postcode and a short brief. We'll come back in writing with a quote and the recommended bollard spec.
What if my insurer needs a specific bollard spec?
Send their requirement with the brief. We'll price a quote that matches the spec they want to see, with documentation you can pass back to them.
Do you handle planning or permits in Corby?
On highway-adjacent or council-owned land in Corby, yes — we'll apply for the permit and price it into the quote. On private land it's usually not needed.
Do you install on tarmac, concrete and block paving?
Yes. We core to the right diameter for the surface, use the correct grout or concrete mix and reinstate so the area looks finished, not patched.
Do you maintain automatic bollards too?
Yes. Hydraulic and electromechanical bollards need annual servicing to stay reliable. We service systems we install and systems put in by other contractors.
