What to specify
- Interlocks. Linked controls stop the door closing on the leveller or the leveller deploying too early.
- Traffic lights. Clear signals for drivers and forklift operators at every stage of loading.
- Sectional doors. Well-sealed, insulated dock doors that open fully and run clear of the leveller.
- 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.
Jobs we can carry out
- Converting a yard roller shutter opening into a full loading bay with a loading house, leveller and shelter.
- Designing and fitting a run of complete loading bays on a new-build distribution centre to the main contractor's programme.
- Adding a loading house to a unit where the warehouse floor cannot be cut for a leveller pit.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Keighley?
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
Sites in and around Keighley vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
