What we fit in Brecon

Sized to your fleet. We size the platform for your bed-height range and heaviest laden truck.
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.
Telescopic lips. A sliding lip that reaches further and lands exactly where the driver needs it.
Toe guards. Side guards stop feet being trapped as the platform lowers.

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.
Re-edging and repairing a damaged pit before fitting a replacement leveller at a manufacturing site.

Loading bay safety in Wales

Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Brecon the business running the site must keep them in efficient working order under PUWER 1998, and keep traffic routes safe under the Workplace Regulations 1992. Dock levellers are built to BS EN 1398; powered loading bay doors are covered by the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 and BS EN 12453.

Access, phasing and timing

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Your questions about dock levellers

Can our dock leveller in Brecon 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.

Can you replace the dock leveller at our Brecon 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.

Do you service and repair dock levellers across Powys?

Yes. We service and repair most makes of dock leveller across Powys, including hydraulic power packs, cylinders, hoses, lips, hinges and controls. Service and repair visits are chargeable and priced before work starts.
