What we fit in Canary Wharf
- Phased refurbishment. We work through the bays in turn, leaving the rest in use.
- Sectional doors. Insulated sectional doors with vision panels and electric operation.
- Traffic lights. Inside and outside lights show when the bay is safe to use.
- Interlocks. Door, leveller and restraint operate only in a safe sequence.
- Impact protection. Bumpers, wheel guides and bollards protect the building and equipment.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Repairing damaged pit edges and fitting new telescopic levellers, shelters and bumpers at a manufacturing site.
- Retrofitting traffic lights and door-leveller interlocks to a run of existing loading bays.
- Adding a loading house to a unit where the warehouse floor cannot be cut for a leveller pit.
Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Canary Wharf 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
Sites in and around Canary Wharf vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Frequently asked questions
Do you maintain loading bay equipment across Greater London?
Yes. We service and repair doors, levellers, shelters and controls across Greater London, and can set up planned maintenance covering every item at the bay. Service and repair visits are chargeable.
Can you refurbish our loading bays in Canary Wharf without closing the site?
Yes. Bays can be refurbished one at a time so the others stay in use, and work can be done out of hours where needed. Each bay is commissioned before we move on to the next.
Can a loading bay be added to our Canary Wharf 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.
