Dock levellers in Campbeltown

The short version

Mixed fleet at your Campbeltown (PA28) site, with vans, rigid lorries and trailers? We size the platform and lip so forklifts and pallet trucks get a manageable slope across the full range of bed heights.

Town: Campbeltown
Postcode district: PA28
Area: Argyll and Bute
Survey: By arrangement

What to specify

Pit work. Existing pits repaired or re-edged; new pits detailed for groundworks.
Sized to your fleet. Platform length and capacity chosen for your vehicles and forklifts.
Velocity fuse. Hydraulic safety valve locks the platform if a hose fails or a trailer moves.
Door interlocks. Linking the leveller and door controls prevents either one being used out of sequence.
Telescopic lips. A sliding lip that reaches further and lands exactly where the driver needs it.

Jobs we can carry out

Re-edging and repairing a damaged pit before fitting a replacement leveller at a manufacturing site.
Supplying box-frame levellers to a groundworks contractor for casting into a new-build dock edge.
Interlocking new hydraulic levellers with sectional dock doors so neither can be used out of sequence.

Loading bay safety in Scotland

Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Campbeltown the business running the site must keep them in efficient working order under PUWER 1998, and keep traffic routes safe under the Workplace Regulations 1992. Dock levellers are built to BS EN 1398; powered loading bay doors are covered by the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 and BS EN 12453.

Planning the work around your site
