Options for dock levellers in Tamworth
- Toe guards. Guards along each side keep feet out from under the moving platform.
- Door interlocks. Leveller works only with the door open; the door cannot close on it.
- Telescopic lips. Extending lips placed precisely on the bed for awkward vehicles and loads.
- Pit work. We sort the pit too, from re-edging an old one to detailing a new one.
- Sized to your fleet. We size the platform for your bed-height range and heaviest laden truck.
Jobs we can carry out
- Interlocking new hydraulic levellers with sectional dock doors so neither can be used out of sequence.
- Replacing worn swing-lip dock levellers in their existing pits, with pit edge repairs and new dock bumpers.
- Fitting telescopic-lip levellers for a fleet whose trailers do not always park tight against the dock buffers.
Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Tamworth 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.
How the work is organised
For busy sites in Staffordshire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
