Options for complete loading bays in Dagenham

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.
Shelters and seals. Retractable, inflatable or foam shelters around the trailer.
Phased refurbishment. Bays refurbished one at a time so the site keeps trading.
Dock levellers. Swing-lip or telescopic-lip levellers sized to your fleet.

Typical scopes of work

Adding a loading house to a unit where the warehouse floor cannot be cut for a leveller pit.
Converting a yard roller shutter opening into a full loading bay with a loading house, leveller and shelter.
Phasing bay refurbishment at a cold store, one bay per weekend, so temperature-controlled loading carries on.

Loading bay safety in England

Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Dagenham 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

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.

Your questions about complete loading bays

Can you refurbish our loading bays in Dagenham 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.

Do you work on new-build loading bays around Greater London?

Yes. We supply pit, opening and embedded steel details to your design team and groundworks contractor early, then install and commission doors, levellers, shelters and accessories to the main contractor's programme.

How long does it take to install a loading bay in Dagenham?

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.
