What we fit in Berkshire
- Sectional doors. Well-sealed, insulated dock doors that open fully and run clear of the leveller.
- Phased refurbishment. Bays refurbished one at a time so the site keeps trading.
- One package. Every item at the bay is chosen to work with the others, not bought in isolation.
- Impact protection. Bumpers, wheel guides and bollards protect the building and equipment.
- Shelters and seals. A shelter or seal closes the gap around the vehicle during loading.
Jobs we can carry out
- Repairing damaged pit edges and fitting new telescopic levellers, shelters and bumpers at a manufacturing site.
- Refurbishing bays one at a time with new sectional doors, levellers and inflatable shelters so loading continues.
- Retrofitting traffic lights and door-leveller interlocks to a run of existing loading bays.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Berkshire?
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.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.
