Options for dock shelters and seals in Surbiton
- Weather protection. Goods and staff stay out of the weather while the trailer is being worked.
- Sized to your fleet. We size curtains to the vans, rigids and trailers that actually use your bay.
- Inflatable seals. Air bags inflate around the parked trailer for a tight seal.
- Temperature control. Less heated or chilled air escapes around the trailer while the door is up.
- Replacement curtains. Damaged curtains can be swapped without replacing the whole shelter.
What this work can involve
- Fitting retractable dock shelters across a run of bays that serve a mixed fleet of vans and trailers.
- Pricing shelters, levellers and sectional doors together for the refurbishment of an existing goods-in area.
- Adding rain gutters and guide lights to dock shelters so water stays out of trailers during loading.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Surbiton?
The employer or occupier is. PUWER 1998 requires work equipment to be maintained and inspected, and the Workplace Regulations 1992 cover vehicle and pedestrian routes around the dock. In practice that means planned servicing of levellers and doors, daily pre-use checks and a clear procedure to stop trailers moving during loading.
Keeping your site running during the work
Most installations in Surbiton can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Dock shelters and seals in Surbiton: your questions
Can a dock shelter in Surbiton be fitted with our existing leveller?
Usually, yes. The shelter fits around the dock door and works with most existing levellers, provided the bumpers stop the trailer at the right distance from the wall. We check the bumpers and leveller lip on survey.
Do you repair dock shelters in Surbiton?
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.
Do you fit dock shelters for cold stores around Greater London?
Yes. We fit inflatable and retractable shelters at cold stores and chilled sites across Greater London, often alongside insulated doors and levellers, to help hold temperature and limit condensation at the dock while trailers are worked.
