What we fit in Keighley
- Retractable frames. Spring-loaded scissor arms fold back on impact and return afterwards.
- Sized to your fleet. We size curtains to the vans, rigids and trailers that actually use your bay.
- Weather protection. Goods and staff stay out of the weather while the trailer is being worked.
- Guidance aids. Guide stripes, wheel guides and lights help drivers park centrally.
- Inflatable seals. Once the vehicle is in place, inflated bags press against its sides and roof.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Adding rain gutters and guide lights to dock shelters so water stays out of trailers during loading.
- Replacing torn side and top curtains on existing retractable shelter frames instead of buying new shelters.
- Replacing worn dock bumpers before fitting new shelters so trailers stop at the correct distance from the wall.
Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Keighley the business running the site must keep them in efficient working order under PUWER 1998, and keep traffic routes safe under the Workplace Regulations 1992. Dock levellers are built to BS EN 1398; powered loading bay doors are covered by the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 and BS EN 12453.
How the work is organised
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
