What we fit in Perth and Kinross
- Dock bumpers. Bumpers that stop trailers at the right distance from the building.
- Polymer bollards. Flexible bollards that absorb impact and spring back.
- Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
- Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
- Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
Jobs we can carry out
- Adding steel guide-rail guards to a row of sectional loading doors at a distribution centre.
- Fitting polymer bollards inside a busy warehouse door to keep forklifts away from the door guides.
- Placing bollards beside a fire shutter so stored goods and trucks cannot obstruct its closing line.
Loading bay safety in Scotland
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Perth and Kinross 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.
How the work is organised
For busy sites in Scotland the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Frequently asked questions
Can bollards at our Perth and Kinross site be replaced after a strike?
Yes. Damaged bollards and guards can usually be replaced individually. We check the fixings and the slab around them first, because a bent bollard often loosens its anchors or cracks the concrete at its base.
How long does it take to fit door protection in Perth and Kinross?
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.
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Perth and Kinross 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.
