Loading bay safety in England

Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Surrey 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

Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.

Frequently asked questions

Should we repair or replace our leveller in Surrey?

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 loading bay repairs in Surrey 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.

Can you repair our dock leveller in Surrey 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.
