Options for dock levellers in Droitwich

Sized to your fleet. Platform length and capacity chosen for your vehicles and forklifts.
Door interlocks. Leveller works only with the door open; the door cannot close on it.
Swing-lip levellers. Hinged lips that flip out and land on the trailer bed, suited to most loading bays.
Toe guards. Side guards stop feet being trapped as the platform lowers.
Pit work. We sort the pit too, from re-edging an old one to detailing a new one.

Jobs we can carry out

Supplying box-frame levellers to a groundworks contractor for casting into a new-build dock edge.
Fitting an edge-of-dock leveller to a lightly used bay where a full leveller pit is not needed.
Replacing worn swing-lip dock levellers in their existing pits, with pit edge repairs and new dock bumpers.

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

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

Most installations in Droitwich 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.

Questions from businesses in Droitwich

Can you replace the dock leveller at our Droitwich 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.

Which leveller type suits our vehicles in Droitwich?

Swing-lip suits most standard trailer traffic. Telescopic lip suits vehicles parked off the buffers, trailers with tail lifts, or loads packed right to the rear. We recommend after recording your vehicles on survey.

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

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.
