What we fit in Wokingham

Commissioning. Each leveller tested and handed over with records and instructions.
Telescopic lips. Extending lips placed precisely on the bed for awkward vehicles and loads.
Velocity fuse. Hydraulic safety valve locks the platform if a hose fails or a trailer moves.
Pit work. We sort the pit too, from re-edging an old one to detailing a new one.
Door interlocks. Leveller works only with the door open; the door cannot close on it.

Jobs we can carry out

Re-edging and repairing a damaged pit before fitting a replacement leveller at a manufacturing site.
Fitting telescopic-lip levellers for a fleet whose trailers do not always park tight against the dock buffers.
Interlocking new hydraulic levellers with sectional dock doors so neither can be used out of sequence.
