Service yard and loading dock protection
Reduce accident risk, prevent damage and optimize traffic movements in loading bays and service yards.
Protecting your service yard
Prevent structural damage to essential loading docks by protecting against HGV impacts and friction from trailers during loading and unloading.
Reduce the risk of serious accidents and injuries from vehicles, pallets jacks and pedestrians falling off vacant loading docks.
Maintain maximum operating capacity and volume by preventing damage to roller doors, shutters and other service yard infrastructure.
Introducing the Traffic Gate
Making your service yard safer
Protect docks
Dock gates provide both visual guidance and a physical barrier at unoccupied loading docks. They prevent access and protect doors from impact damage.
Create pedestrian safe zones
HGV drivers are vulnerable to vehicle impact accidents in service yards. Safety barriers and swing gates can be used to create safe areas in which drivers can wait while their vehicles are being loaded or unloaded.
Protect doorways
Loading bay doors can be damaged by forklift trucks and palleted goods. Safety bollards at doorways provide visual guidance to drivers and protect against impact damage.
PAS 13: your guide to workplace safety
PAS 13 is an independent global benchmark for the installation and testing of workplace safety barriers. It was produced by the British Standards Institution in partnership with leading international companies including Nestlé, Mars, and DHL. Learn more about the PAS 13 code of practice.

Why choose polymer dock protection?
Flexible industrial polymer and patented engineering absorbs and disperses impact forces to protect fixings and prevent floor damage.
Engineered with built-in memory to flex and fully recover from impacts, unique polymer design protects against costly barrier and vehicle damage.
Self-colored, non-corrosive and UV protected, advanced polymer barriers stay visible, do not rust and never need painting, saving you time and money.
