When a lorry pulls into the yard

– without Peakboard

The driver doesn't know which bay to head for.

At the gatehouse, someone has to look the assignment up.

When the plan changes, the old printout stays up at the bay.

Loading bay assignment with Peakboard

The visualisation is loaded onto the Peakboard Box, and the bays and lorries are managed through the web interface. No database of your own is required – all the data sits on the Box.

How do I assign a lorry to a loading bay?

Via the Peakboard web interface, you enter which lorry is expected at which bay and at what time. All data is stored directly on the Peakboard Box.

What happens with more than seven bays?

The view switches automatically to the next page, so even larger numbers of loading bays are displayed clearly.

Do I need an external database for this template?

No. Assignments are maintained directly via the Peakboard web interface on the Box, with no external data source needed.

Can I customise the display myself, without IT?

Yes. Peakboard is a low-code platform: you change bays, layout, and display logic by drag-and-drop in the Peakboard Designer.

Does the display run on-premises or in the cloud?

Peakboard runs entirely on-premises on your own network – assignment data never leaves the company. There's no cloud requirement and no dependency on US-based infrastructure providers – 100% GDPR-compliant.
