Quick answer

We can supply and install dock levellers in Bromsgrove and throughout Worcestershire, from single replacement units on older warehouses to full runs of loading bays on new-build distribution sheds, with pit work and interlocks included where needed.

Town: Bromsgrove
Postcode district: B61
Area: Worcestershire
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Velocity fuse. If pressure is lost suddenly, the platform locks instead of dropping.
Sized to your fleet. We size the platform for your bed-height range and heaviest laden truck.
Toe guards. Guards along each side keep feet out from under the moving platform.
Door interlocks. Linking the leveller and door controls prevents either one being used out of sequence.
Telescopic lips. A sliding lip that reaches further and lands exactly where the driver needs it.

Jobs we can carry out

Fitting an edge-of-dock leveller to a lightly used bay where a full leveller pit is not needed.
Replacing a mechanical leveller with a hydraulic unit that has single-button automatic operation and a velocity fuse.
Sizing a longer leveller platform for a bay that receives both low-bed vans and high-bed articulated trailers.

Loading bay safety in England

Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Bromsgrove 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

Frequently asked questions

Do you install levellers on new-build sites around Bromsgrove?

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 you replace the dock leveller at our Bromsgrove warehouse using the existing pit?

Usually, yes. We measure the pit on survey and allow for any cutting, repair or re-edging needed. If the new unit is a different size, the quote covers the pit modifications as a separate line.

Can our dock leveller in Bromsgrove 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.
