What we fit in Wallington
- Impact protection. Bumpers, wheel guides and bollards protect the building and equipment.
- Traffic lights. Inside and outside lights show when the bay is safe to use.
- Shelters and seals. A shelter or seal closes the gap around the vehicle during loading.
- Dock levellers. Swing-lip or telescopic-lip levellers sized to your fleet.
- Sectional doors. Well-sealed, insulated dock doors that open fully and run clear of the leveller.
What this work can involve
- Phasing bay refurbishment at a cold store, one bay per weekend, so temperature-controlled loading carries on.
- Designing and fitting a run of complete loading bays on a new-build distribution centre to the main contractor's programme.
- Retrofitting traffic lights and door-leveller interlocks to a run of existing loading bays.
Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Wallington 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 Wallington 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 a loading bay be added to our Wallington 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.
