We consider the space of adjointable operators on barreled VH (Vector Hilbert) spaces and show that such operators are automatically bounded. This generalizes the well known corresponding result for locally Hilbert C*-modules. We pick a consequence of this result in the dilation theory of VH-spaces and show that, when barreled VH-spaces are considered, a certain boundedness condition for the existence of VH-space linearisations, equivalently, of reproducing kernel VH-spaces, is automatically satisfied.
