What we fit in Cumbernauld
- Dock bumpers. Fresh bumpers keep trailers off the wall, the leveller and the shelter.
- Frame buffers. Buffers cushion knocks to frame edges and wall corners around the opening.
- Suitable fixings. We choose anchor bolts or foundations depending on the slab and expected impacts.
- High visibility. Yellow or yellow-and-black finishes that drivers notice.
- Polymer bollards. Bollards that flex on impact, sparing the floor, the vehicle and themselves.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Installing wheel guides and corner bollards on a run of loading bays to protect the shelter frames.
- Setting concrete-filled steel bollards in excavated foundations to protect a yard roller shutter from HGV impact.
- Fitting rubber corner buffers to a door frame where pallet trucks clip the wall on a tight turn.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Cumbernauld, loading bays bring together several duties: maintained work equipment under PUWER 1998, safe traffic routes under the Workplace Regulations 1992, and safe powered doors under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. Dock levellers should meet BS EN 1398, and the site's risk assessment should cover vehicle creep and drive-aways.
Planning the work around your site
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to fit door protection in Cumbernauld?
Usually a few hours per door for base-plated bollards and guide guards. Bollards set in foundations take longer because of coring or excavation, and are often fitted out of hours to avoid disrupting traffic.
Do you replace dock bumpers across Lanarkshire?
Yes. We replace worn dock bumpers and fit wheel guides and corner bollards at loading bays across Lanarkshire, often during a leveller service or bay refurbishment to save a separate visit.
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Cumbernauld site?
We check slab thickness and look for buried services before drilling. Polymer bollards and proper foundations reduce the risk of slab cracking on heavy impacts, and we recommend the right fixing for your floor.
