What we fit in Mansfield
- Commissioning. Each leveller tested and handed over with records and instructions.
- Toe guards. Guards along each side keep feet out from under the moving platform.
- Telescopic lips. A sliding lip that reaches further and lands exactly where the driver needs it.
- Door interlocks. Linking the leveller and door controls prevents either one being used out of sequence.
- Swing-lip levellers. Robust hinged-lip levellers for standard trailer traffic.
Jobs we can carry out
- Interlocking new hydraulic levellers with sectional dock doors so neither can be used out of sequence.
- Fitting an edge-of-dock leveller to a lightly used bay where a full leveller pit is not needed.
- Replacing a mechanical leveller with a hydraulic unit that has single-button automatic operation and a velocity fuse.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Mansfield, 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
Most installations in Mansfield can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
