Options that matter on site

Telescopic lips. A sliding lip that reaches further and lands exactly where the driver needs it.
Pit work. Existing pits repaired or re-edged; new pits detailed for groundworks.
Sized to your fleet. We size the platform for your bed-height range and heaviest laden truck.
Swing-lip levellers. Robust hinged-lip levellers for standard trailer traffic.
Commissioning. Every unit is tested through its full cycle before handover, with documentation.

Jobs we can carry out

Replacing worn swing-lip dock levellers in their existing pits, with pit edge repairs and new dock bumpers.
Replacing a mechanical leveller with a hydraulic unit that has single-button automatic operation and a velocity fuse.
Sizing a longer leveller platform for a bay that receives both low-bed vans and high-bed articulated trailers.

What the law expects at a loading bay

Across Great Britain, including Rosyth, 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.

Planning the work around your site

For busy sites in Fife the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Questions from businesses in Rosyth

Can our dock leveller in Rosyth 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 Rosyth?

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.

How much is a dock leveller in Rosyth?

Our guide price is £6,495 to £10,995 ex VAT for a hydraulic swing-lip leveller into a prepared pit, and £8,495 to £13,995 for telescopic lip. Your fixed price in Rosyth, including any pit work, is confirmed in writing after a free survey.
