How we work on sites in Bideford
It starts with a free site survey in Bideford, where we measure the openings, check the dock and talk through how the bay is used. You then receive a fixed written quote. Once you accept, we manage the job: specialist installation engineers carry out the work under our management, planned around your deliveries, and out-of-hours working can be arranged. At handover we test everything with you and leave the documentation.
Repair and service visits in Bideford are chargeable, and we agree the price with you in writing before anyone attends. Photos or a short video of the fault help us send the right engineer with the right parts. If the visit uncovers more work than expected, we quote it and wait for your approval before going ahead. After every visit you receive a written report on what was found and done.
- Lighting inside trailers and at the dock face
- Headroom above the opening and which track type will suit it
- Gaps around trailers where heated or chilled air escapes
- Power supply at each bay, including three-phase availability
- Safety edges, photocells and light curtains
- Door springs, cables and drums for wear or damage
Which rules apply in England?
Lift tables and dock lifts in Bideford may fall under LOLER, with thorough examination at least every 12 months, or every 6 months where people are lifted. It depends on the equipment and how it is used, and your insurer or competent person will confirm. Dock levellers are usually treated as work equipment under PUWER. We check what applies at survey.
