Quick answer
One team, one survey, one set of dimensions: our complete loading bay service in Gwynedd avoids the gaps that appear when doors, levellers and shelters come from different suppliers working to different drawings.

What to specify
- Interlocks. Door, leveller and restraint operate only in a safe sequence.
- Traffic lights. Clear signals for drivers and forklift operators at every stage of 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.
- Phased refurbishment. We work through the bays in turn, leaving the rest in use.
What this work can involve
- Phasing bay refurbishment at a cold store, one bay per weekend, so temperature-controlled loading carries on.
- Adding a loading house to a unit where the warehouse floor cannot be cut for a leveller pit.
- 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 Gwynedd?
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
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.
