What we fit in Cleckheaton
- Shelters and seals. Retractable, inflatable or foam shelters around the trailer.
- 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.
- Interlocks. Linked controls stop the door closing on the leveller or the leveller deploying too early.
- Traffic lights. Inside and outside lights show when the bay is safe to use.
Typical scopes of work
- Designing and fitting a run of complete loading bays on a new-build distribution centre to the main contractor's programme.
- Converting a yard roller shutter opening into a full loading bay with a loading house, leveller and shelter.
- Refurbishing bays one at a time with new sectional doors, levellers and inflatable shelters so loading continues.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Cleckheaton, 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.
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
How long does it take to install a loading bay in Cleckheaton?
A single bay with a prepared pit typically takes two to three days, including commissioning the interlocks and lights. New-build projects follow the main programme, and multi-bay refurbishments are phased to suit your operations.
Do you work on new-build loading bays around West Yorkshire?
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.
Can you refurbish our loading bays in Cleckheaton 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.
