Options for complete loading bays in Aldershot
- One package. Door, leveller, shelter, bumpers and lights specified together.
- Shelters and seals. A shelter or seal closes the gap around the vehicle during loading.
- Sectional doors. Insulated sectional doors with vision panels and electric operation.
- Interlocks. Linked controls stop the door closing on the leveller or the leveller deploying too early.
- Dock levellers. Hydraulic levellers chosen for your vehicle bed heights and handling equipment.
Typical scopes of work
- Adding a loading house to a unit where the warehouse floor cannot be cut for a leveller pit.
- Phasing bay refurbishment at a cold store, one bay per weekend, so temperature-controlled loading carries on.
- Repairing damaged pit edges and fitting new telescopic levellers, shelters and bumpers at a manufacturing site.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Aldershot?
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.
How the work is organised
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.
