Options for dock shelters and seals in Cookstown
- Foam seals. Foam pads that the trailer squeezes into, ideal where every vehicle is much the same.
- Temperature control. Helps hold heat or cold inside the building with dock doors open.
- Replacement curtains. Damaged curtains can be swapped without replacing the whole shelter.
- Retractable frames. If a trailer reverses too far, the frame gives way and springs back instead of bending.
- Guidance aids. Guide stripes, wheel guides and lights help drivers park centrally.
Jobs we can carry out
- Adding rain gutters and guide lights to dock shelters so water stays out of trailers during loading.
- Pricing shelters, levellers and sectional doors together for the refurbishment of an existing goods-in area.
- Replacing torn side and top curtains on existing retractable shelter frames instead of buying new shelters.
Loading bay safety in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, PUWER (Northern Ireland) 1999 requires dock levellers, shelters and powered doors to be maintained, and the Workplace Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993 cover traffic routes around the dock. HSENI is the regulator. Dock levellers are built to BS EN 1398.
Keeping your site running during the work
For busy sites in County Tyrone 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.

How long does dock shelter installation take in Cookstown?
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.

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.
