Loading Houses - Industry, Commerce and Public Authorities

Loading houses are placed in front of the building. This means that the entire building space can be used, right up to the exterior Walls. Hörmann loading houses are always a good choice if buildings do not allow for the installation of interior ramps or if tailboard slots on the ramps are not possible.A complete loading house consists of a pedestal with dock leveller, wall and ceiling cladding and a loading opening with dock shelter.In conjunction with insulated Hörmann industrial doors, loading houses are particularly recommended for loading temperature-sensitive goods.Lorries can then dock at a 90° angle or offset to the side at a tight angle. Loading houses are available as individual units or arranged as a series.Loading bays sometimes take up a large portion of Commercial Buildings. They thus offer substantial energy savings potential – for more information about the amortisation and retrofitting see the Hörmann energy savings compass.
