Options for dock shelters and seals in Bridlington
- Replacement curtains. Worn or torn curtains renewed on the existing frame.

What this work can involve

- Installing inflatable dock shelters at a chilled goods-in to help hold temperature while trailers are unloaded.
Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Bridlington 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
Sites in and around Bridlington 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.

Your questions about dock shelters and seals
How long does dock shelter installation take in Bridlington?
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.
Do you fit dock shelters for cold stores around the East Riding of Yorkshire?
Yes. We fit inflatable and retractable shelters at cold stores and chilled sites across the East Riding of Yorkshire, often alongside insulated doors and levellers, to help hold temperature and limit condensation at the dock while trailers are worked.
Can you replace the curtains on our dock shelters in Bridlington?
Yes. Replacement curtains are made to fit the existing frame on most retractable shelters, which is much cheaper than a new shelter. We measure and record the frame on the first visit.
