In short
When a dock leveller at your Wick warehouse is beyond economic repair, we price a replacement unit into the existing pit alongside the repair, so you can compare the two options honestly.

How we look after doors in Wick
- Bumpers and guides. Worn bumpers and damaged wheel guides replaced.
- Clear pricing. You know the visit cost before we arrive and the repair cost before we order.
- Most makes. We work on loading bay equipment from many manufacturers.
- Lips and hinges. Structural damage to lips and hinges repaired so the platform supports loads safely.
- Hydraulic repairs. Leaks, drift and slow operation traced to their source and fixed.
Typical scopes of work
- Restoring a door-to-leveller interlock that has been bypassed and testing the bay sequence before handover.
- Straightening a bent leveller lip and fitting steel-faced bumpers so trailers stop short of the dock edge.
- Replacing a leaking hydraulic cylinder on a dock leveller that drifts down under load.
Loading bay safety in Scotland
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Wick the business running the site must keep them in efficient working order under PUWER 1998, and keep traffic routes safe under the Workplace Regulations 1992. Dock levellers are built to BS EN 1398; powered loading bay doors are covered by the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 and BS EN 12453.
Access, phasing and timing
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.

Your questions about dock leveller and loading bay repairs
Should we repair or replace our leveller in Wick?
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.
Can you repair our dock leveller in Wick 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 Wick 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.
