What to specify
- Sized to your fleet. We size curtains to the vans, rigids and trailers that actually use your bay.
- Replacement curtains. Worn or torn curtains renewed on the existing frame.
- Temperature control. Helps hold heat or cold inside the building with dock doors open.
- Weather protection. Keeps wind, rain and cold out of the dock during loading.
- Guidance aids. Guide stripes, wheel guides and lights help drivers park centrally.
Typical scopes of work
- Installing inflatable dock shelters at a chilled goods-in to help hold temperature while trailers are unloaded.
- Fitting foam dock seals at a bay used only by a dedicated fleet of identical trailers.
- Adding rain gutters and guide lights to dock shelters so water stays out of trailers during loading.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Ossett?
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
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.

Questions from businesses in Ossett
Do you repair dock shelters in Ossett?
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 Ossett 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 West Yorkshire?
Yes. We fit inflatable and retractable shelters at cold stores and chilled sites across West Yorkshire, often alongside insulated doors and levellers, to help hold temperature and limit condensation at the dock while trailers are worked.
