Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Melton Mowbray 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.
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.

Questions from businesses in Melton Mowbray
Can you protect our existing doors in Melton Mowbray?
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.
Do you replace dock bumpers across Leicestershire?
Yes. We replace worn dock bumpers and fit wheel guides and corner bollards at loading bays across Leicestershire, often during a leveller service or bay refurbishment to save a separate visit.
Which bollards suit our Melton Mowbray 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.
