Options for complete loading bays in Bo'ness
- Shelters and seals. Retractable, inflatable or foam shelters around the trailer.
- Phased refurbishment. We work through the bays in turn, leaving the rest in use.
- Interlocks. Linked controls stop the door closing on the leveller or the leveller deploying too early.
- Dock levellers. Hydraulic levellers chosen for your vehicle bed heights and handling equipment.
- One package. Every item at the bay is chosen to work with the others, not bought in isolation.
Typical scopes of work
- Converting a yard roller shutter opening into a full loading bay with a loading house, leveller and shelter.
- 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.
Loading bay safety in Scotland
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Bo'ness 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.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Forth Valley the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
