In short
Ageing bays at your Bearsden warehouse? Across Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire, 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.

- Area
- Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire
- Survey
- Free for new installations
What to specify
- Phased refurbishment. We work through the bays in turn, leaving the rest in use.
- One package. Every item at the bay is chosen to work with the others, not bought in isolation.
- Shelters and seals. A shelter or seal closes the gap around the vehicle during loading.
- Interlocks. Door, leveller and restraint operate only in a safe sequence.
- Traffic lights. Clear signals for drivers and forklift operators at every stage of loading.
Typical scopes of work
- Refurbishing bays one at a time with new sectional doors, levellers and inflatable shelters so loading continues.
- Designing and fitting a run of complete loading bays on a new-build distribution centre to the main contractor's programme.
- 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 Bearsden?
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.
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.

Your questions about complete loading bays
What safety systems should our Bearsden 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.
Can you refurbish our loading bays in Bearsden 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.
Do you work on new-build loading bays around Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire?
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.
