Options that matter on site
- Dock bumpers. Bumpers that stop trailers at the right distance from the building.
- Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
- Polymer bollards. Flexible bollards that absorb impact and spring back.
- Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
- Frame buffers. Buffers cushion knocks to frame edges and wall corners around the opening.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing bent bollards and checking the slab and anchors around them before fitting new fixings.
- Adding steel guide-rail guards to a row of sectional loading doors at a distribution centre.
- Installing wheel guides and corner bollards on a run of loading bays to protect the shelter frames.
Loading bay safety in Wales
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Colwyn Bay the business running the site must keep them in efficient working order under PUWER 1998, and keep traffic routes safe under the Workplace Regulations 1992. Dock levellers are built to BS EN 1398; powered loading bay doors are covered by the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 and BS EN 12453.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Clwyd the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
