What we fit in Derry
- High visibility. Yellow or yellow-and-black finishes that drivers notice.
- Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
- Polymer bollards. Bollards that flex on impact, sparing the floor, the vehicle and themselves.
- Dock bumpers. Fresh bumpers keep trailers off the wall, the leveller and the shelter.
- Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing worn-through dock bumpers so reversing trailers stop short of the wall and the leveller lip.
- 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 Derry?
The employer or occupier, under PUWER (Northern Ireland) 1999 and the Workplace Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993. Planned servicing, daily checks and a procedure to stop trailers moving during loading are the practical basics HSENI will expect.
Access, phasing and timing
Sites in and around Derry 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.
