Typical scopes of work

Converting a yard roller shutter opening into a full loading bay with a loading house, leveller and shelter.
Adding a loading house to a unit where the warehouse floor cannot be cut for a leveller pit.
Phasing bay refurbishment at a cold store, one bay per weekend, so temperature-controlled loading carries on.

What the law expects at a loading bay

Across Great Britain, including Yeadon, 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.

Planning the work around your site

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Your questions about complete loading bays

Can a loading bay be added to our Yeadon 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 Yeadon?

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 Yeadon site.

Can you refurbish our loading bays in Yeadon 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.
