The short version
New-build loading docks in Keighley need levellers planned early. We provide pit details for the groundworks contractor, then fit and commission the levellers and interlock them with the dock doors once those are in.

What we fit in Keighley
- Swing-lip levellers. Robust hinged-lip levellers for standard trailer traffic.
- Sized to your fleet. We size the platform for your bed-height range and heaviest laden truck.
- Pit work. Existing pits repaired or re-edged; new pits detailed for groundworks.
- 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.
Typical scopes of work
- Re-edging and repairing a damaged pit before fitting a replacement leveller at a manufacturing site.
- Interlocking new hydraulic levellers with sectional dock doors so neither can be used out of sequence.
- Fitting telescopic-lip levellers for a fleet whose trailers do not always park tight against the dock buffers.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Keighley?
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.
How the work is organised
Most installations in Keighley 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.
