Options for dock shelters and seals in Bloxwich
- Guidance aids. Driver aids help trailers line up straight, which protects the shelter and improves the seal.
- Replacement curtains. Damaged curtains can be swapped without replacing the whole shelter.
- Sized to your fleet. We size curtains to the vans, rigids and trailers that actually use your bay.
- Inflatable seals. Once the vehicle is in place, inflated bags press against its sides and roof.
- Weather protection. Goods and staff stay out of the weather while the trailer is being worked.
What this work can involve
- Replacing torn side and top curtains on existing retractable shelter frames instead of buying new shelters.
- Fitting retractable dock shelters across a run of bays that serve a mixed fleet of vans and trailers.
- Installing inflatable dock shelters at a chilled goods-in to help hold temperature while trailers are unloaded.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Bloxwich?
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.
Planning the work around your site
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.

Your questions about dock shelters and seals
Do you fit dock shelters for cold stores around the West Midlands?
Yes. We fit inflatable and retractable shelters at cold stores and chilled sites across the West Midlands, often alongside insulated doors and levellers, to help hold temperature and limit condensation at the dock while trailers are worked.
Do you repair dock shelters in Bloxwich?
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.
Which dock shelter suits our Bloxwich 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.
