What to specify
- Commissioning. Each leveller tested and handed over with records and instructions.
- Pit work. We sort the pit too, from re-edging an old one to detailing a new one.
- 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.
- Sized to your fleet. Platform length and capacity chosen for your vehicles and forklifts.
Jobs we can carry out
- Sizing a longer leveller platform for a bay that receives both low-bed vans and high-bed articulated trailers.
- 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.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Renfrew, 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Most installations in Renfrew 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.
