What we fit in Hammersmith
- 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. A shelter or seal closes the gap around the vehicle during loading.
- 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
- 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.
- Designing and fitting a run of complete loading bays on a new-build distribution centre to the main contractor's programme.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Hammersmith?
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.
Keeping your site running during the work
For busy sites in Greater London 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.

Questions from businesses in Hammersmith
Can a loading bay be added to our Hammersmith 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 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.
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.
