Loading bay safety in Scotland
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Wishaw 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.
Planning the work around your site
For busy sites in Lanarkshire 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.

Your questions about complete loading bays
What safety systems should our Wishaw loading bays have?
That follows your risk assessment, but busy bays commonly have traffic lights, door-leveller interlocks, vehicle restraints or sensored chocks, dock lights and edge protection. We recommend a package after seeing how your bays are used.
Do you maintain loading bay equipment across Lanarkshire?
Yes. We service and repair doors, levellers, shelters and controls across Lanarkshire, and can set up planned maintenance covering every item at the bay. Service and repair visits are chargeable.
Can you refurbish our loading bays in Wishaw without closing the site?
Yes. Bays can be refurbished one at a time so the others stay in use, and work can be done out of hours where needed. Each bay is commissioned before we move on to the next.
