Options that matter on site
- One package. Door, leveller, shelter, bumpers and lights specified together.
- Phased refurbishment. We work through the bays in turn, leaving the rest in use.
- Dock levellers. Hydraulic levellers chosen for your vehicle bed heights and handling equipment.
- Traffic lights. Inside and outside lights show when the bay is safe to use.
- Interlocks. Door, leveller and restraint operate only in a safe sequence.
Typical scopes of work
- Repairing damaged pit edges and fitting new telescopic levellers, shelters and bumpers at a manufacturing site.
- Specifying vehicle restraints, traffic lights and dock lights as part of a review of how trailers leave the dock.
- 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 Worksop, 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
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Frequently asked questions
Can you refurbish our loading bays in Worksop 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.
How long does it take to install a loading bay in Worksop?
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.
Do you work on new-build loading bays around Nottinghamshire?
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.
