What to specify
- Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
- Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
- Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
- Steel bollards. Rigid steel posts that stop vehicles firmly in front of guides and frames.
- Dock bumpers. Fresh bumpers keep trailers off the wall, the leveller and the shelter.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing bent bollards and checking the slab and anchors around them before fitting new fixings.
- Replacing worn-through dock bumpers so reversing trailers stop short of the wall and the leveller lip.
- Placing bollards beside a fire shutter so stored goods and trucks cannot obstruct its closing line.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Renfrew, 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Sites in and around Renfrew 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.

Frequently asked questions
Do you replace dock bumpers across Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire?
Yes. We replace worn dock bumpers and fit wheel guides and corner bollards at loading bays across Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire, often during a leveller service or bay refurbishment to save a separate visit.
Can you protect our existing doors in Renfrew?
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.
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Renfrew 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.
