How we look after doors in Weymouth
- Bumpers and guides. Worn bumpers and damaged wheel guides replaced.
- Safety devices. Safety features checked and repaired so the leveller is safe to use and service.
- Controls. Control panels, buttons, automatic return and interlocks fixed.
- Lips and hinges. Structural damage to lips and hinges repaired so the platform supports loads safely.
- Hydraulic repairs. Power packs, cylinders, hoses and seals repaired or replaced.
What this work can involve
- Rebuilding the lip hinge on a swing-lip leveller damaged by forklifts driving onto the lip before it rests on the trailer.
- Clearing debris from a leveller pit and freeing the hinges so the platform returns level to its stored position.
- Renewing torn side and top curtains on retractable dock shelters damaged by off-centre reversing.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Weymouth, 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.
Planning the work around your site
On a first visit we record each door's make, size, control type and condition. That record makes later repairs quicker to price and helps you plan replacements before a door fails.

Questions from businesses in Weymouth
Can you repair our dock leveller in Weymouth if you did not install it?
Yes. We repair most makes of hydraulic and mechanical leveller. If original parts are no longer made, we look for compatible alternatives or explain why replacement into the existing pit may be better.
How soon can you repair a leveller at our Weymouth site?
We book repair visits as soon as we can and confirm the expected date when you call. We do not promise fixed response times. Photos and the leveller make help us bring likely parts.
Should we repair or replace our leveller in Weymouth?
Repair is usually the first step. If the platform is cracked, the pit edges are broken or repairs are frequent, we price a replacement into the existing pit alongside the repair so you can compare.
