What to specify

Sectional doors. Insulated sectional doors with vision panels and electric operation.
Phased refurbishment. We work through the bays in turn, leaving the rest in use.
Impact protection. Bumpers, wheel guides and bollards protect the building and equipment.
Traffic lights. Inside and outside lights show when the bay is safe to use.
Shelters and seals. Retractable, inflatable or foam shelters around the trailer.

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.
Refurbishing bays one at a time with new sectional doors, levellers and inflatable shelters so loading continues.

Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Kirkintilloch?

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.

How the work is organised

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
