Options for dock shelters and seals in Craigavon
- Retractable frames. Spring-loaded scissor arms fold back on impact and return afterwards.
- Sized to your fleet. We size curtains to the vans, rigids and trailers that actually use your bay.
- Temperature control. Less heated or chilled air escapes around the trailer while the door is up.
- Foam seals. Foam pads that the trailer squeezes into, ideal where every vehicle is much the same.
- Weather protection. Keeps wind, rain and cold out of the dock during loading.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing worn dock bumpers before fitting new shelters so trailers stop at the correct distance from the wall.
- Specifying deeper top curtains for bays that receive double-deck trailers alongside standard trailers.
- Fitting foam dock seals at a bay used only by a dedicated fleet of identical trailers.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Craigavon?
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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Your questions about dock shelters and seals
Do you fit dock shelters for cold stores around County Armagh?
Yes. We fit inflatable and retractable shelters at cold stores and chilled sites across County Armagh, often alongside insulated doors and levellers, to help hold temperature and limit condensation at the dock while trailers are worked.

Yes. We straighten or replace bent frames and arms, replace curtains, repair inflatable shelter blowers and bags, and renew bumpers. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before ordering any made-to-measure parts.

Typically half a day to a day per shelter, depending on size and fixings. We schedule work bay by bay so loading can continue at the others while each shelter is fitted.
