Hillingdon Bollard Installation
From a single steel post outside a Hillingdon corner shop to a full PAS 68 line across a public square, we handle the survey, the install and the aftercare. Quote first, work second, no surprises on invoice.
What we install in Hillingdon
Whether the job is on Uxbridge town centre, the Pavilions and the Stockley Park business estate, we install across Hillingdon and the rest of the UB postcodes, with the same survey, quote and install crew on every job.
Hotels, restaurants and venues in Hillingdon often want bollards that don't look like bollards: bell-shaped iron, painted to a brand colour, or stainless with a brushed finish. We install all of those without bending the foundation spec to make them fit.
Insurance-driven installs in Hillingdon 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 bollards in Hillingdon we wire in loop detectors, fobs, intercoms or ANPR depending on how the site needs to manage access. We service them too, so you've got someone to call when a unit stops cycling.
The bollards themselves come from manufacturers we've installed for years — predictable steel grade, predictable fixings, parts available years later. That's worth more than a few quid saved on a no-name post.

Frequently asked questions about bollards in Hillingdon
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.
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.
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.
Do you take on small jobs — one or two posts?
Yes. A single replacement post on a damaged shopfront in Hillingdon is a normal job for us, not a "minimum order" that gets pushed away. Quote the same way as a bigger scheme.
Can you install crash-rated PAS 68 bollards in Hillingdon?
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 spacing do you use between bollards?
For pedestrian-permeable lines we typically space at 1.2m centre-to-centre. Where the brief is to stop a vehicle squeezing through, spacing comes in tighter and the post diameter goes up.
