What this work can involve
- Straightening a bent leveller lip and fitting steel-faced bumpers so trailers stop short of the dock edge.

- Repairing damaged toe guards and a faulty emergency stop identified during a leveller safety inspection.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Irvine?
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.
Planning the work around your site
Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.

Dock leveller and loading bay repairs in Irvine: your questions
Do you repair dock shelters across Ayrshire?
Yes. We replace torn curtains, repair bent frames and scissor arms, fix inflatable shelter blowers and bags, and renew worn bumpers across Ayrshire, always quoting a fixed price before ordering made-to-measure parts.
Is our dock leveller in Irvine safe to use?
If it drifts, drops, leaks significantly, has cracked hinges or damaged toe guards, or will not return to stored position, stop using it and isolate it until it has been inspected and repaired.
Can loading bay repairs in Irvine be done out of hours?
Yes. Repairs take a bay out of use, so we can work early, late or at weekends where needed, with any extra cost shown in the quote before the visit is booked.
