Options that matter on site
- Interlocks. Door, leveller and restraint operate only in a safe sequence.
- One package. Every item at the bay is chosen to work with the others, not bought in isolation.
- Phased refurbishment. We work through the bays in turn, leaving the rest in use.
- Sectional doors. Insulated sectional doors with vision panels and electric operation.
- Traffic lights. Inside and outside lights show when the bay is safe to use.
What this work can involve
- Phasing bay refurbishment at a cold store, one bay per weekend, so temperature-controlled loading carries on.
- Specifying vehicle restraints, traffic lights and dock lights as part of a review of how trailers leave the dock.
- Converting a yard roller shutter opening into a full loading bay with a loading house, leveller and shelter.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Stourbridge, 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
For busy sites in the West Midlands the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Frequently asked questions
Can a loading bay be added to our Stourbridge unit without a pit?
Often, yes. A loading house built out in front of the door, or an edge-of-dock leveller for light use, avoids cutting a pit in the floor. We check which option suits the building and the traffic on survey.
How much does a complete loading bay cost in Stourbridge?
Complete loading bays are priced on survey, typically £14,995 to £39,995 ex VAT per bay depending on the leveller, shelter, door and safety systems. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey of your Stourbridge site.
Do you work on new-build loading bays around the West Midlands?
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.
