Why it works

Built to take the knocks

Takes the hit

Hot-dip galvanised mild steel absorbs vehicle and forklift impacts to protect the column behind.

Bolts down fast

The flanged base fixes to floor or wall with 8 bolts, with no specialist tools needed.

High-visibility option

A yellow finish with black bands keeps the protector clear to drivers in busy areas.

Weatherproof finish

Galvanising resists rust, so it holds up outdoors as well as inside.

Made in the UK

Manufactured in the UK by Autopa to a consistent, durable standard.

Frequently asked questions

What size column or pipe does it fit?

The protector has a 252mm internal width and guards pipes and columns up to 250mm in diameter. It comes in two heights, 988mm and 1488mm.

Can it be fixed to the floor and the wall?

Yes. This is the floor and wall mountable version, with a flanged base that bolts down to either. A wall-only version is also available.

How many bolts does it need?

Each unit fixes with 8 bolts. You can order it with the bolts included, or excluded if you already have suitable fixings on site.

What finishes can I choose?

Galvanised as standard, galvanised with a yellow and black banded coating for high visibility, or a custom powder-coated RAL/BS colour on request.

Is it suitable for outdoor use?

Yes. The mild steel is hot-dip galvanised, so it resists rust and stands up to outdoor conditions as well as indoor industrial use.

Will it protect a column from forklift impact?

Yes. The galvanised steel shell is designed to take vehicle and forklift knocks, absorbing the impact to protect the column or pipe inside.

What is the lead time and delivery?

These are made to order in the UK, with a typical lead time of 10 to 15 working days. Delivery is free.
