Installation and Maintenance Advice

Installation Advice

  • Site surveys, drawing and quotations can be arranged in most areas of the U.K
  • All technical drawings provided on our website www.werra.co.uk
  • Full installation instructions accompany all products where applicable
  • To install, most items will normally require some form of breaker or drill, depending on site
  • conditions. The stronger the foundation you can lay, the better. Site conditions will dictate the size and type of foundation
  • To prevent vehicle access, gaps between posts/bollards should be no larger than 1 .2-1 .3 metres
  • Chain should not be allowed to span more than approx. 4 metres length

When working outside we recommend the following:

  • Secure the site from pedestrians and vehicles, where applicable, by use of high visibility tape, barriers, cones and safety lamps. Ensure you are familiar with statutory regulations, especially if working in a 'public' area
  • When drilling or cutting, wear protective goggles and suitable clothing
  • Wear strong protective gloves
  • Wear a safety helmet
  • Ensure your power supply is secure and in a safe dry location
  • Beware of any possible underground services - gas, water and electricity

Maintenance Advice

All outdoor products need occasional cleaning & maintenance. Clean with a mild detergent, cloth & water. Lubricate locks. Clear away all dirt, debris, leaves etc.
