Frequently Asked Questions
Is this dock bumper suitable for all types of vehicles using my loading bay?
The 750 x 250 x 100mm dock bumper is designed to suit most standard commercial vehicles, including vans and HGVs. It provides an effective buffer at the dock face, but you should always check that the bumper position aligns with the typical height and overhang of the vehicles using your bay.
Can I replace an existing dock bumper with this size?
Yes, this bumper is often used as a replacement where a similar 750 x 250 x 100mm unit has been installed previously. Before ordering, measure your existing bumper and fixing centres, and confirm that there is sufficient space on the dock face to accommodate this size.
What fixings do I need to install this dock bumper?
Suitable heavy-duty mechanical fixings or anchor bolts are normally used to secure dock bumpers to concrete or steel structures. The exact type and size of fixings required will depend on your dock construction and site conditions, so it is recommended to consult a competent installer or engineer.
