Mixed fleet at your Milford Haven (SA73) 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.

What to specify

Velocity fuse. Hydraulic safety valve locks the platform if a hose fails or a trailer moves.
Telescopic lips. Extending lips placed precisely on the bed for awkward vehicles and loads.
Sized to your fleet. We size the platform for your bed-height range and heaviest laden truck.
Door interlocks. Linking the leveller and door controls prevents either one being used out of sequence.
Swing-lip levellers. Robust hinged-lip levellers for standard trailer traffic.

Typical scopes of work

Interlocking new hydraulic levellers with sectional dock doors so neither can be used out of sequence.
Replacing a mechanical leveller with a hydraulic unit that has single-button automatic operation and a velocity fuse.
Supplying box-frame levellers to a groundworks contractor for casting into a new-build dock edge.

Loading bay safety in Wales

Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Milford Haven 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

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.

Dock levellers in Milford Haven: your questions

Can you replace the dock leveller at our Milford Haven warehouse using the existing pit?

Usually, yes. We measure the pit on survey and allow for any cutting, repair or re-edging needed. If the new unit is a different size, the quote covers the pit modifications as a separate line.

Can our dock leveller in Milford Haven be interlocked with the door?

Yes. We fit interlocks so the leveller only operates with the door fully open, and the door cannot close while the leveller is deployed. It suits both new and existing bays, subject to the controls on each.

Which leveller type suits our vehicles in Milford Haven?

Swing-lip suits most standard trailer traffic. Telescopic lip suits vehicles parked off the buffers, trailers with tail lifts, or loads packed right to the rear. We recommend after recording your vehicles on survey.
