The loading bays or loading docks manages the inflow and outflow of goods. Thus, it is one of the most important access points of buildings that must be kept efficient. This is exactly what loading bay doors are for.

Designed for quick and easy access to loading docks and areas where goods are transported in and out of a facility, loading bay doors are an essential component of many commercial or industrial buildings. Sometimes referred to as bay doors, these industrial doors are usually roll up or sectional doors and come in a variety of styles, each with its unique features and benefits.

Loading Bay Equipment | Dock Leveller & Dock Shelter

When it comes to loading bay equipment, ensuring the safety of personnel and goods is of utmost importance. A well-designed loading bay system not only improves operational efficiency but also minimises the risk of accidents during the loading and unloading process. At EAS, we specialise in providing high-quality loading bay equipment that ensures smooth and safe operations.

A dock leveller bridges the height difference between the loading bay and the vehicle bed, allowing for safe and efficient loading and unloading of goods. Our dock levellers are designed to accommodate a wide range of vehicles, from small vans to large articulated lorries. We offer hydraulic, mechanical, and air-powered dock levellers that can handle various weight capacities, making them suitable for different types of industries.

In addition to dock levellers, we also provide dock shelters that create a seal between the loading bay and the vehicle, preventing heat loss, dust, and rain from entering the facility. Our dock shelters are made of durable materials that can withstand constant use and harsh weather conditions.

Types of Loading Bay Doors

Sectional Overhead Doors

Sectional overhead doors are a popular option for loading bays. They consist of several panels that slide up and back along tracks to open and close the door. Sectional overhead doors are easy to operate, secure, and energy-efficient.

    FAQs

    1. What is the standard size of a loading bay door?

    There is no one standard size for a loading bay door, as the size can vary depending on factors such as the size of the delivery vehicles, the type of goods being loaded and unloaded, and the available space for the loading bay.

    However, common sizes for loading bay doors range from 8 feet wide by 8 feet tall to 10 feet wide by 14 feet tall, with some doors being even larger.

    1. What is a typical loading dock door?

    A typical loading dock door is a large, heavy-duty door that is designed to provide a secure and efficient access point for loading and unloading goods from trucks and other delivery vehicles. Loading dock doors are made of durable materials such as steel or aluminium, and may be insulated to help maintain temperature control in the loading area.

    1. What is the difference between an overhead door and a roll-up door?

    There are a few differences between an overhead door and a roll-up door. An overhead door, also known as a sectional door, is typically made up of several hinged panels that slide up and overhead when the door is opened. These doors can be made of various materials, such as steel, wood, or fibreglass, and can be insulated or non-insulated. They are often used in applications where a wide opening is needed, such as for large vehicles or equipment.

    A roll-up door, on the other hand, is typically made of a single sheet of metal or other material that rolls up and around a drum above the door opening when the door is opened. Roll-up doors are often used in applications where space is limited, as they require less overhead clearance than overhead doors. They are also commonly used in areas where security is a concern, as they can be made from very durable materials and can be outfitted with locking mechanisms to prevent unauthorized access.
