For depot gates and yards in Wellingborough 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.
On hospital, clinic and care-home sites in Wellingborough we install bollards around ambulance bays, pedestrian crossings and entrances. The brief is usually about keeping the route clear without making it harder for genuine traffic.
Industrial and logistics sites in Wellingborough usually want heavy-duty static posts protecting columns, racking ends, gas meters and pedestrian walkways. We'll quote on a per-post basis or as a package if you want the whole yard done in one visit.
Surface reinstatement is part of the price, not an extra. Whether it's blacktop, concrete, block paving or resin, we leave the area looking like the bollard was always meant to be there.

Wellingborough bollard FAQs
What type of bollard is right for my Wellingborough site?
It depends on what you're stopping (a wandering shopper, a misparked van, a hostile vehicle) and whether you ever need to let vehicles through. Send the site details and we'll recommend a spec rather than guess.
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.
How do I get a quote for Wellingborough?
Use the quote form on this page with the Wellingborough site postcode and a short brief. We'll come back in writing with a quote and the recommended bollard spec.
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.
Can you install bollards in a conservation area in Wellingborough?
Yes — we install heritage-style cast-iron and bell bollards alongside modern steel. Where consent is needed, we'll line the spec up with what the planners will accept.
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.
