Main town: Newtown
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Dock bumpers. Fresh bumpers keep trailers off the wall, the leveller and the shelter.
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.
Steel bollards. Galvanised, painted steel bollards, concrete-filled where needed.
High visibility. Bright finishes make protection easy for drivers to see and avoid.

What this work can involve

Fitting rubber corner buffers to a door frame where pallet trucks clip the wall on a tight turn.
Replacing worn-through dock bumpers so reversing trailers stop short of the wall and the leveller lip.
Fitting polymer bollards inside a busy warehouse door to keep forklifts away from the door guides.

Loading bay safety in Wales

Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Powys 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

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.

Bollards and door protection in Powys: your questions

Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Powys 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.

Do you replace dock bumpers across Wales?

Yes. We replace worn dock bumpers and fit wheel guides and corner bollards at loading bays across Wales, often during a leveller service or bay refurbishment to save a separate visit.
