Town: Greenford
Postcode district: UB6
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Phased refurbishment. Bays refurbished one at a time so the site keeps trading.
Traffic lights. Inside and outside lights show when the bay is safe to use.
Sectional doors. Well-sealed, insulated dock doors that open fully and run clear of the leveller.
Interlocks. Linked controls stop the door closing on the leveller or the leveller deploying too early.
Dock levellers. Swing-lip or telescopic-lip levellers sized to your fleet.

Jobs we can carry out

Retrofitting traffic lights and door-leveller interlocks to a run of existing loading bays.
Specifying vehicle restraints, traffic lights and dock lights as part of a review of how trailers leave the dock.
Refurbishing bays one at a time with new sectional doors, levellers and inflatable shelters so loading continues.

What the law expects at a loading bay

Across Great Britain, including Greenford, loading bays bring together several duties: maintained work equipment under PUWER 1998, safe traffic routes under the Workplace Regulations 1992, and safe powered doors under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. Dock levellers should meet BS EN 1398, and the site's risk assessment should cover vehicle creep and drive-aways.

Planning the work around your site

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Frequently asked questions

Can you refurbish our loading bays in Greenford 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 Greenford 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.

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.
