In short
New-build loading docks in Holyhead need levellers planned early. We provide pit details for the groundworks contractor, then fit and commission the levellers and interlock them with the dock doors once those are in.

What we fit in Holyhead
- Door interlocks. Linking the leveller and door controls prevents either one being used out of sequence.
- Commissioning. Every unit is tested through its full cycle before handover, with documentation.
- Telescopic lips. Extending lips placed precisely on the bed for awkward vehicles and loads.
- Toe guards. Guards along each side keep feet out from under the moving platform.
- Sized to your fleet. Platform length and capacity chosen for your vehicles and forklifts.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing a mechanical leveller with a hydraulic unit that has single-button automatic operation and a velocity fuse.
- Re-edging and repairing a damaged pit before fitting a replacement leveller at a manufacturing site.
- Supplying box-frame levellers to a groundworks contractor for casting into a new-build dock edge.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Holyhead?
The employer or occupier is. PUWER 1998 requires work equipment to be maintained and inspected, and the Workplace Regulations 1992 cover vehicle and pedestrian routes around the dock. In practice that means planned servicing of levellers and doors, daily pre-use checks and a clear procedure to stop trailers moving during loading.
How the work is organised
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
