Options for complete loading bays in Aberystwyth
- Traffic lights. Clear signals for drivers and forklift operators at every stage of loading.
- Phased refurbishment. We work through the bays in turn, leaving the rest in use.
- One package. Every item at the bay is chosen to work with the others, not bought in isolation.
- Sectional doors. Insulated sectional doors with vision panels and electric operation.
- Impact protection. Trailers are stopped and centred so they do not damage the wall, shelter or door.
Jobs we can carry out
- Repairing damaged pit edges and fitting new telescopic levellers, shelters and bumpers at a manufacturing site.
- Phasing bay refurbishment at a cold store, one bay per weekend, so temperature-controlled loading carries on.
- Refurbishing bays one at a time with new sectional doors, levellers and inflatable shelters so loading continues.
Loading bay safety in Wales
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Aberystwyth 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.
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.

Complete loading bays in Aberystwyth: your questions
Do you maintain loading bay equipment across Dyfed?
Yes. We service and repair doors, levellers, shelters and controls across Dyfed, and can set up planned maintenance covering every item at the bay. Service and repair visits are chargeable.
What safety systems should our Aberystwyth loading bays have?
That follows your risk assessment, but busy bays commonly have traffic lights, door-leveller interlocks, vehicle restraints or sensored chocks, dock lights and edge protection. We recommend a package after seeing how your bays are used.
How long does it take to install a loading bay in Aberystwyth?
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.
