In short
When a dock leveller at your Newton-le-Willows 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.

What our engineers check and fix
- Lips and hinges. Structural damage to lips and hinges repaired so the platform supports loads safely.
- Shelter repairs. Torn curtains replaced and damaged frames straightened or renewed.
- Safety devices. Toe guards, velocity fuses, struts and emergency stops restored.
- Most makes. We work on loading bay equipment from many manufacturers.
- Controls. Electrical faults found and repaired, including door-to-leveller interlocks.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Rebuilding the lip hinge on a swing-lip leveller damaged by forklifts driving onto the lip before it rests on the trailer.
- Straightening a bent leveller lip and fitting steel-faced bumpers so trailers stop short of the dock edge.
- Renewing torn side and top curtains on retractable dock shelters damaged by off-centre reversing.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Newton-le-Willows?
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.
How the work is organised
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.
