What we fit in Troon

Guidance aids. Driver aids help trailers line up straight, which protects the shelter and improves the seal.
Temperature control. Less heated or chilled air escapes around the trailer while the door is up.
Weather protection. Keeps wind, rain and cold out of the dock during loading.
Replacement curtains. Worn or torn curtains renewed on the existing frame.
Sized to your fleet. Curtain sizes matched to vehicle widths, heights and dock height.

Typical scopes of work

Adding rain gutters and guide lights to dock shelters so water stays out of trailers during loading.
Replacing torn side and top curtains on existing retractable shelter frames instead of buying new shelters.
Fitting foam dock seals at a bay used only by a dedicated fleet of identical trailers.

What the law expects at a loading bay

Across Great Britain, including Troon, 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.

Planning the work around your site

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.
