What to specify

One package. Door, leveller, shelter, bumpers and lights specified together.

Sectional doors. Well-sealed, insulated dock doors that open fully and run clear of the leveller.
Interlocks. Door, leveller and restraint operate only in a safe sequence.
Phased refurbishment. Bays refurbished one at a time so the site keeps trading.

Jobs we can carry out

Converting a yard roller shutter opening into a full loading bay with a loading house, leveller and shelter.
Repairing damaged pit edges and fitting new telescopic levellers, shelters and bumpers at a manufacturing site.
Adding a loading house to a unit where the warehouse floor cannot be cut for a leveller pit.

Loading bay safety in England

Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Wellington the business running the site must keep them in efficient working order under PUWER 1998, and keep traffic routes safe under the Workplace Regulations 1992. Dock levellers are built to BS EN 1398; powered loading bay doors are covered by the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 and BS EN 12453.

Access, phasing and timing

Most installations in Wellington can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
