Options that matter on site
- Telescopic lips. Extending lips placed precisely on the bed for awkward vehicles and loads.
- Commissioning. Each leveller tested and handed over with records and instructions.
- Door interlocks. Linking the leveller and door controls prevents either one being used out of sequence.
- 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.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing worn swing-lip dock levellers in their existing pits, with pit edge repairs and new dock bumpers.
- Fitting an edge-of-dock leveller to a lightly used bay where a full leveller pit is not needed.
- 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 Ealing, 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
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Dock levellers in Ealing: your questions
Do you install levellers on new-build sites around Ealing?
Yes. We provide pit details to your groundworks contractor early, supply box-frame or pit-fitted levellers and install them to the main contractor's programme, along with doors and shelters if needed.
Can you replace the dock leveller at our Ealing 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.

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.
