Eastchurch Construction has solidified its position as the safety barrier installers of choice for commercial clients from all walks of life, from private companies and landlords, to public authorities and the Highways Agency. Covering areas from Canterbury to Faversham, Maidstone to Rainham, and Rochester to Sittingbourne, we’ll begin with a consultation and site survey, ensuring our team can proceed with the installation safely, navigating any logistical or environmental challenges while honouring all relevant British Standards and safety legislation.
Many different environments can benefit from the installation of safety barriers; loading docks, car parks, access roads, warehouses and properties in vulnerable locations are some of the most common ones we attend to. These barriers can be constructed using different installation techniques and materials, including concrete and steel, ensuring they are perfectly suited to their end application and will provide the correct degree of protection to peoples and property.
The installation of safety barriers involves several important steps. The first step is to identify the hazards that the barriers will protect against. Once they have been identified, the appropriate type of barrier can be selected. Factors such as the size and weight of the barrier, its visibility, and its resistance to impact will all be considered during the selection process. It’s in this way that our safety barrier installers can ensure clients around Canterbury, Faversham, Maidstone, Rainham, Rochester and Sittingbourne don’t simply get a generic barrier that just looks the part, and is actually fit for its intended purpose.
The next step is to prepare the installation site through clearing the area of debris, levelling the ground, and excavating the site to create a foundation for the barrier. If the barrier will be anchored to the ground, anchor points will need to be installed.
The barrier itself is then assembled and installed. Eastchurch Construction has a fleet of well-maintained plant on hand to ensure we can complete the project within a strict timeframe, without compromising the quality of installation. We may lift and position the barrier using said plant, or it may require a team of workers to manually install the barrier piece by piece. Once in place, our safety barriers installers will secure it to the anchor points and provide a thorough inspection to ensure a job well done.
