What to specify

Impact protection. Trailers are stopped and centred so they do not damage the wall, shelter or door.
One package. Door, leveller, shelter, bumpers and lights specified together.
Sectional doors. Insulated sectional doors with vision panels and electric operation.
Dock levellers. Hydraulic levellers chosen for your vehicle bed heights and handling equipment.
Interlocks. Door, leveller and restraint operate only in a safe sequence.

Typical scopes of work

Phasing bay refurbishment at a cold store, one bay per weekend, so temperature-controlled loading carries on.
Repairing damaged pit edges and fitting new telescopic levellers, shelters and bumpers at a manufacturing site.
Converting a yard roller shutter opening into a full loading bay with a loading house, leveller and shelter.

Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Campbeltown?

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.

Access, phasing and timing

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.

Questions from businesses in Campbeltown

How long does it take to install a loading bay in Campbeltown?

A single bay with a prepared pit typically takes two to three days, including commissioning the interlocks and lights. New-build projects follow the main programme, and multi-bay refurbishments are phased to suit your operations.

Do you work on new-build loading bays around Argyll and Bute?

Yes. We supply pit, opening and embedded steel details to your design team and groundworks contractor early, then install and commission doors, levellers, shelters and accessories to the main contractor's programme.

Can a loading bay be added to our Campbeltown unit without a pit?

Often, yes. A loading house built out in front of the door, or an edge-of-dock leveller for light use, avoids cutting a pit in the floor. We check which option suits the building and the traffic on survey.
