What to specify
- Replacement curtains. Worn or torn curtains renewed on the existing frame.
- Weather protection. Goods and staff stay out of the weather while the trailer is being worked.
- Temperature control. Helps hold heat or cold inside the building with dock doors open.
- Inflatable seals. Air bags inflate around the parked trailer for a tight seal.
- Retractable frames. If a trailer reverses too far, the frame gives way and springs back instead of bending.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Fitting retractable dock shelters across a run of bays that serve a mixed fleet of vans and trailers.
- Replacing torn side and top curtains on existing retractable shelter frames instead of buying new shelters.
- Specifying deeper top curtains for bays that receive double-deck trailers alongside standard trailers.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Bordon, 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Sites in and around Bordon 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.

Dock shelters and seals in Bordon: your questions
Can you replace the curtains on our dock shelters in Bordon?
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.
Which dock shelter suits our Bordon warehouse?
Retractable shelters suit most mixed fleets. Inflatable shelters give a tighter seal for chilled, frozen or sensitive goods. Foam seals suit uniform fleets. We recommend one after recording your vehicles and dock on survey.
Do you fit dock shelters for cold stores around Hampshire?
Yes. We fit inflatable and retractable shelters at cold stores and chilled sites across Hampshire, often alongside insulated doors and levellers, to help hold temperature and limit condensation at the dock while trailers are worked.
