Options for complete loading bays in Burnley

One package. Every item at the bay is chosen to work with the others, not bought in isolation.
Dock levellers. Swing-lip or telescopic-lip levellers sized to your fleet.
Impact protection. Bumpers, wheel guides and bollards protect the building and equipment.
Sectional doors. Well-sealed, insulated dock doors that open fully and run clear of the leveller.
Phased refurbishment. Bays refurbished one at a time so the site keeps trading.

Jobs we can carry out

Refurbishing bays one at a time with new sectional doors, levellers and inflatable shelters so loading continues.
Converting a yard roller shutter opening into a full loading bay with a loading house, leveller and shelter.
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 Burnley?

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

Sites in and around Burnley 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.

Questions from businesses in Burnley

Do you work on new-build loading bays around Lancashire?

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.

What safety systems should our Burnley 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.

How long does it take to install a loading bay in Burnley?

A single bay with a prepared pit typically takes two to three days, including commissioning the interlocks and lights. New-build projects follow the main programme, and multi-bay refurbishments are phased to suit your operations.
