What we fit in Cumbernauld
- Guidance aids. Guide stripes, wheel guides and lights help drivers park centrally.
- Retractable frames. If a trailer reverses too far, the frame gives way and springs back instead of bending.
- Replacement curtains. Worn or torn curtains renewed on the existing frame.
- Weather protection. Keeps wind, rain and cold out of the dock during loading.
- Foam seals. Foam pads that the trailer squeezes into, ideal where every vehicle is much the same.
Jobs we can carry out
- Specifying deeper top curtains for bays that receive double-deck trailers alongside standard trailers.
- Fitting foam dock seals at a bay used only by a dedicated fleet of identical trailers.
- Pricing shelters, levellers and sectional doors together for the refurbishment of an existing goods-in area.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Cumbernauld?
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.
How the work is organised
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Dock shelters and seals in Cumbernauld: your questions
Which dock shelter suits our Cumbernauld 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.
How long does dock shelter installation take in Cumbernauld?
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.
Can you replace the curtains on our dock shelters in Cumbernauld?
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.
