Armour yards

French translation: Dans les cours chez Armour

English term or phrase: Armour yards
Hello fellow translators,

Please, can someone lend me assistance? I am translating a document on transport in which there is the following sentence:
All loaded trailers requiring staging within Armour yards are subject to the following mitigation procedures where possible.

I do not really understand what "Armour yards" is referring to and I would appreciate your suggestions about how to render it into French.

Thank you!

French translation:Dans les cours chez Armour
Explanation:
Pour autant que Armour soit le nom de l'entreprise comme c'est le cas pour Armour Transport, par exemple.

Le compagnies de transport ont des cours où elles reçoivent et entreposent des remorques chargées ou non. C'est l'explication que j'y vois.

Thank you, Lorraine. I think this is how it should be translated. Le document parle effectivement du transport des produits par les remorques et, selon la logique dudit document, les "Armours yard" sont les endroits où les remorques sont entreposées. Etant donné que Armour prenait une majuscule, je comprenais qu'il ne s'agirait pas de "l'armure", vu que cela n'aurait tout simplement pas de sens dans la phrase. Il s'agit du nom de la companie. Merci !

agree  Tony M: Only logical explanation I can think of! Asker must surely have more context that would clarify.
