What we fit in Morpeth
- Pit work. Existing pits repaired or re-edged; new pits detailed for groundworks.
- Toe guards. Guards along each side keep feet out from under the moving platform.
- Telescopic lips. Extending lips placed precisely on the bed for awkward vehicles and loads.
- 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.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing worn swing-lip dock levellers in their existing pits, with pit edge repairs and new dock bumpers.
- 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.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Morpeth?
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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Sites in and around Morpeth 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.

Dock levellers in Morpeth: your questions
Can our dock leveller in Morpeth 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.
