Ageing bays at your Bushey warehouse? Across Hertfordshire, loading bays can be refurbished one at a time, with doors, levellers and shelters replaced in turn so the site keeps trading throughout the work.

What we fit in Bushey
- One package. Door, leveller, shelter, bumpers and lights specified together.
- Sectional doors. Insulated sectional doors with vision panels and electric operation.
- Traffic lights. Clear signals for drivers and forklift operators at every stage of loading.
- Shelters and seals. A shelter or seal closes the gap around the vehicle during loading.
- Impact protection. Trailers are stopped and centred so they do not damage the wall, shelter or door.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Designing and fitting a run of complete loading bays on a new-build distribution centre to the main contractor's programme.
- Converting a yard roller shutter opening into a full loading bay with a loading house, leveller and shelter.
- Phasing bay refurbishment at a cold store, one bay per weekend, so temperature-controlled loading carries on.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Bushey, 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.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Hertfordshire 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.
