How we look after doors in Chesham
- Hydraulic repairs. Power packs, cylinders, hoses and seals repaired or replaced.
- Most makes. Repairs to most makes of leveller and shelter.

- Controls. Control panels, buttons, automatic return and interlocks fixed.

Typical scopes of work
- Rebuilding the lip hinge on a swing-lip leveller damaged by forklifts driving onto the lip before it rests on the trailer.

- 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 Chesham?
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.
Access, phasing and timing
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
