The short version
For chilled and frozen operations in Enniskillen (BT74), an inflatable dock shelter gives a tight seal around the trailer, helping hold temperature during loading and reducing condensation at the dock.

What we fit in Enniskillen
- Inflatable seals. Once the vehicle is in place, inflated bags press against its sides and roof.
- Guidance aids. Guide stripes, wheel guides and lights help drivers park centrally.
- Weather protection. Goods and staff stay out of the weather while the trailer is being worked.
- Retractable frames. If a trailer reverses too far, the frame gives way and springs back instead of bending.
- Sized to your fleet. We size curtains to the vans, rigids and trailers that actually use your bay.
Typical scopes of work
- Adding rain gutters and guide lights to dock shelters so water stays out of trailers during loading.
- Specifying deeper top curtains for bays that receive double-deck trailers alongside standard trailers.
- Replacing worn dock bumpers before fitting new shelters so trailers stop at the correct distance from the wall.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Enniskillen?
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
For busy sites in County Fermanagh the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

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.
