What we fit in Dunfermline
- Dock bumpers. Bumpers that stop trailers at the right distance from the building.
- Suitable fixings. We choose anchor bolts or foundations depending on the slab and expected impacts.
- Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
- Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
- High visibility. Bright finishes make protection easy for drivers to see and avoid.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Installing wheel guides and corner bollards on a run of loading bays to protect the shelter frames.
- Fitting rubber corner buffers to a door frame where pallet trucks clip the wall on a tight turn.
- Replacing bent bollards and checking the slab and anchors around them before fitting new fixings.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Dunfermline?
The employer or occupier is. PUWER 1998 requires work equipment to be maintained and inspected, and the Workplace Regulations 1992 cover vehicle and pedestrian routes around the dock. In practice that means planned servicing of levellers and doors, daily pre-use checks and a clear procedure to stop trailers moving during loading.
Access, phasing and timing
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Your questions about bollards and door protection
Which bollards suit our Dunfermline warehouse?
Steel bollards suit most yards and external doors; polymer bollards suit busy internal routes where they will be hit often. The slab and vehicle weights decide the fixing. We recommend after seeing where your doors are being struck.
Can bollards at our Dunfermline site be replaced after a strike?
Yes. Damaged bollards and guards can usually be replaced individually. We check the fixings and the slab around them first, because a bent bollard often loosens its anchors or cracks the concrete at its base.
Can you protect our existing doors in Dunfermline?
Yes. Guards, buffers and bollards are fitted around existing doors and frames. If a guide or frame is already bent, we recommend repairing it first so the door runs properly behind its new protection.
