What we fit in Waterlooville
- Dock bumpers. Bumpers that stop trailers at the right distance from the building.
- Steel bollards. Rigid steel posts that stop vehicles firmly in front of guides and frames.
- Guide-rail guards. Protect the bottom of guides and tracks, where forks and pallets strike most often.
- Wheel guides. Apron guides that centre trailers on the bay.
- Suitable fixings. We choose anchor bolts or foundations depending on the slab and expected impacts.
What this work can involve
- 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.
- Replacing worn-through dock bumpers so reversing trailers stop short of the wall and the leveller lip.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Waterlooville?
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
Sites in and around Waterlooville vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
