In short
When a dock leveller at your Sevenoaks 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.

- Sevenoaks
- Postcode district
- TN13
- Area
- Kent
- Guide price
- £245 – £2,495
What our engineers check and fix
- Safety devices. Toe guards, velocity fuses, struts and emergency stops restored.
- Hydraulic repairs. Power packs, cylinders, hoses and seals repaired or replaced.
- Shelter repairs. Torn curtains replaced and damaged frames straightened or renewed.
- Clear pricing. You know the visit cost before we arrive and the repair cost before we order.
- Bumpers and guides. Worn bumpers and damaged wheel guides replaced.
What this work can involve
- Clearing debris from a leveller pit and freeing the hinges so the platform returns level to its stored position.
- 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.
Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Sevenoaks 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Service and repair visits in Sevenoaks are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.

Questions from businesses in Sevenoaks
Can you repair our dock leveller in Sevenoaks 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.
Do you repair dock shelters across Kent?
Yes. We replace torn curtains, repair bent frames and scissor arms, fix inflatable shelter blowers and bags, and renew worn bumpers across Kent, always quoting a fixed price before ordering made-to-measure parts.
Can loading bay repairs in Sevenoaks 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.
