What we fit in Leamington Spa

Commissioning. Each leveller tested and handed over with records and instructions.
Telescopic lips. A sliding lip that reaches further and lands exactly where the driver needs it.
Swing-lip levellers. Robust hinged-lip levellers for standard trailer traffic.
Velocity fuse. If pressure is lost suddenly, the platform locks instead of dropping.
Toe guards. Guards along each side keep feet out from under the moving platform.

What this work can involve

Sizing a longer leveller platform for a bay that receives both low-bed vans and high-bed articulated trailers.
Fitting an edge-of-dock leveller to a lightly used bay where a full leveller pit is not needed.
Supplying box-frame levellers to a groundworks contractor for casting into a new-build dock edge.

Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Leamington Spa?

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.

Planning the work around your site

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.
