Options that matter on site
- Dock levellers. Swing-lip or telescopic-lip levellers sized to your fleet.
- Interlocks. Door, leveller and restraint operate only in a safe sequence.
- Impact protection. Trailers are stopped and centred so they do not damage the wall, shelter or door.
- Sectional doors. Well-sealed, insulated dock doors that open fully and run clear of the leveller.
- One package. Door, leveller, shelter, bumpers and lights specified together.
Jobs we can carry out
- Specifying vehicle restraints, traffic lights and dock lights as part of a review of how trailers leave the dock.
- Repairing damaged pit edges and fitting new telescopic levellers, shelters and bumpers at a manufacturing site.
- Converting a yard roller shutter opening into a full loading bay with a loading house, leveller and shelter.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Staines-upon-Thames?
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.
Planning the work around your site
Most installations in Staines-upon-Thames 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.
