What we fit in Mid Glamorgan
- Interlocks. Linked controls stop the door closing on the leveller or the leveller deploying too early.
- Phased refurbishment. We work through the bays in turn, leaving the rest in use.
- Sectional doors. Insulated sectional doors with vision panels and electric operation.
- Impact protection. Trailers are stopped and centred so they do not damage the wall, shelter or door.
- Shelters and seals. Retractable, inflatable or foam shelters around the trailer.
What this work can involve
- 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.
- Retrofitting traffic lights and door-leveller interlocks to a run of existing loading bays.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Mid Glamorgan?
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
For busy sites in Wales 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.
