What we fit in Redditch
- Sized to your fleet. Platform length and capacity chosen for your vehicles and forklifts.
- Velocity fuse. If pressure is lost suddenly, the platform locks instead of dropping.
- Pit work. Existing pits repaired or re-edged; new pits detailed for groundworks.
- Commissioning. Every unit is tested through its full cycle before handover, with documentation.
- Telescopic lips. A sliding lip that reaches further and lands exactly where the driver needs it.
Jobs we can carry out
- Sizing a longer leveller platform for a bay that receives both low-bed vans and high-bed articulated trailers.
- Replacing worn swing-lip dock levellers in their existing pits, with pit edge repairs and new dock bumpers.
- Supplying box-frame levellers to a groundworks contractor for casting into a new-build dock edge.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Redditch, loading bays bring together several duties: maintained work equipment under PUWER 1998, safe traffic routes under the Workplace Regulations 1992, and safe powered doors under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. Dock levellers should meet BS EN 1398, and the site's risk assessment should cover vehicle creep and drive-aways.
How the work is organised
Most installations in Redditch 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.
