In short

What we fit in Wiltshire
- Door interlocks. Leveller works only with the door open; the door cannot close on it.
- 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.
- 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.
What this work can involve
- Replacing a mechanical leveller with a hydraulic unit that has single-button automatic operation and a velocity fuse.
- Replacing worn swing-lip dock levellers in their existing pits, with pit edge repairs and new dock bumpers.
- Fitting an edge-of-dock leveller to a lightly used bay where a full leveller pit is not needed.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Wiltshire?
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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Sites in and around Wiltshire vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Questions from businesses in Wiltshire
How long does it take to fit a dock leveller in Wiltshire?
A single leveller into a prepared pit is typically fitted and commissioned in a day. Pit repairs or modifications can add time, and we plan work around your loading schedule, bay by bay.
Do you install levellers on new-build sites around Wiltshire?
Yes. We provide pit details to your groundworks contractor early, supply box-frame or pit-fitted levellers and install them to the main contractor's programme, along with doors and shelters if needed.
Can our dock leveller in Wiltshire 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.
