What we fit in Halewood
- Pit work. Existing pits repaired or re-edged; new pits detailed for groundworks.
- Swing-lip levellers. Robust hinged-lip levellers for standard trailer traffic.
- Toe guards. Guards along each side keep feet out from under the moving platform.
- Sized to your fleet. We size the platform for your bed-height range and heaviest laden truck.
- Door interlocks. Leveller works only with the door open; the door cannot close on it.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing a mechanical leveller with a hydraulic unit that has single-button automatic operation and a velocity fuse.
- Interlocking new hydraulic levellers with sectional dock doors so neither can be used out of sequence.
- 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 Halewood?
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
Sites in and around Halewood 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.
