Options that matter on site
- Impact protection. Bumpers, wheel guides and bollards protect the building and equipment.
- One package. Door, leveller, shelter, bumpers and lights specified together.
- Sectional doors. Well-sealed, insulated dock doors that open fully and run clear of the leveller.
- Shelters and seals. Retractable, inflatable or foam shelters around the trailer.
- Traffic lights. Clear signals for drivers and forklift operators at every stage of loading.
Typical scopes of work
- Specifying vehicle restraints, traffic lights and dock lights as part of a review of how trailers leave the dock.
- Designing and fitting a run of complete loading bays on a new-build distribution centre to the main contractor's programme.
- Adding a loading house to a unit where the warehouse floor cannot be cut for a leveller pit.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Battersea?
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.
Planning the work around your site
Most installations in Battersea can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
