What to specify
- Polymer bollards. Flexible bollards that absorb impact and spring back.
- Frame buffers. Buffers cushion knocks to frame edges and wall corners around the opening.
- High visibility. Bright finishes make protection easy for drivers to see and avoid.
- Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
- Dock bumpers. Bumpers that stop trailers at the right distance from the building.
What this work can involve
- Placing bollards beside a fire shutter so stored goods and trucks cannot obstruct its closing line.
- Replacing bent bollards and checking the slab and anchors around them before fitting new fixings.
- Installing wheel guides and corner bollards on a run of loading bays to protect the shelter frames.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Abergavenny?
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.
Planning the work around your site
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
