What we fit in Carmarthen
- Commissioning. Every unit is tested through its full cycle before handover, with documentation.
- Pit work. We sort the pit too, from re-edging an old one to detailing a new one.
- Toe guards. Side guards stop feet being trapped as the platform lowers.
- Velocity fuse. If pressure is lost suddenly, the platform locks instead of dropping.
- Swing-lip levellers. Robust hinged-lip levellers for standard trailer traffic.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing worn swing-lip dock levellers in their existing pits, with pit edge repairs and new dock bumpers.
- 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.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Carmarthen, loading bays bring together several duties: maintained work equipment under PUWER 1998, safe traffic routes under the Workplace Regulations 1992, and safe powered doors under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. Dock levellers should meet BS EN 1398, and the site's risk assessment should cover vehicle creep and drive-aways.
Access, phasing and timing
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
