What to specify
- Velocity fuse. If pressure is lost suddenly, the platform locks instead of dropping.
- Sized to your fleet. Platform length and capacity chosen for your vehicles and forklifts.
- Swing-lip levellers. Robust hinged-lip levellers for standard trailer traffic.
- Door interlocks. Leveller works only with the door open; the door cannot close on it.
- Telescopic lips. A sliding lip that reaches further and lands exactly where the driver needs it.
Typical scopes of work
- 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.
- Replacing a mechanical leveller with a hydraulic unit that has single-button automatic operation and a velocity fuse.
Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Beverley 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.
How the work is organised
Sites in and around Beverley vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Questions from businesses in Beverley
Can our dock leveller in Beverley 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.
How long does it take to fit a dock leveller in Beverley?
A single leveller into a prepared pit is typically fitted and commissioned in a day. Pit repairs or modifications can add time, and we plan work around your loading schedule, bay by bay.
Which leveller type suits our vehicles in Beverley?
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.
