What to specify
- 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.
- Toe guards. Guards along each side keep feet out from under the moving platform.
- Telescopic lips. Extending lips placed precisely on the bed for awkward vehicles and loads.
- Sized to your fleet. We size the platform for your bed-height range and heaviest laden truck.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing a mechanical leveller with a hydraulic unit that has single-button automatic operation and a velocity fuse.
- Supplying box-frame levellers to a groundworks contractor for casting into a new-build dock edge.
- Re-edging and repairing a damaged pit before fitting a replacement leveller at a manufacturing site.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Worcester?
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.
How the work is organised
Most installations in Worcester 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.
