What to specify
- Commissioning. Each leveller tested and handed over with records and instructions.
- Door interlocks. Leveller works only with the door open; the door cannot close on it.
- Velocity fuse. Hydraulic safety valve locks the platform if a hose fails or a trailer moves.
- Pit work. We sort the pit too, from re-edging an old one to detailing a new one.
- Swing-lip levellers. Hinged lips that flip out and land on the trailer bed, suited to most loading bays.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing a mechanical leveller with a hydraulic unit that has single-button automatic operation and a velocity fuse.
- Interlocking new hydraulic levellers with sectional dock doors so neither can be used out of sequence.
- Fitting an edge-of-dock leveller to a lightly used bay where a full leveller pit is not needed.
Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Malvern 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Sites in and around Malvern 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.
