How we work on sites in Burgess Hill
If you are planning loading bay equipment for a site in Burgess Hill, expect four stages. A free survey and fixed written quote come first. We then agree a programme with you, including any out-of-hours work. Specialist installation engineers carry out the installation under our management, with us as your single point of contact. Finally, the equipment is tested, your staff are shown how it works and everything is handed over with its documentation.
We do not turn up and then name a price. Every repair or service visit in Burgess Hill is agreed in writing first, including what the charge covers. Sending photos of the damage, error codes or leaks helps us diagnose the problem before travelling and bring the likely parts. Any additional work found on the day is quoted for your approval before it starts. You then get a written report for your records.
- Gaps around trailers where heated or chilled air escapes
- Condition of any existing leveller pit, kerb angles and pit drainage
- Clear opening width and height for each door
- Wheel guide positions and yard markings for reversing vehicles
- Hydraulic oil level, hoses and cylinders for leaks
- Shelter curtains, frames and side pads for tears
Regulations and approvals in England
Lift tables and dock lifts in Burgess Hill 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.

Questions
What details do you need from us to quote for loading bay work?
To get started, send the site address in Burgess Hill, the number of bays or openings, approximate sizes, and photos of the dock from inside and outside. Tell us what vehicles you load, what goods you handle and any temperature requirements. Drawings help on new builds. We then arrange the free survey and confirm the details before the written quote is issued.
Can you work alongside our main contractor on a new build in Burgess Hill?
Yes. For new warehouses and fit-outs, we can supply and install the dock package as part of a wider project, working to the main contractor's programme, site rules and permits. We will need drawings, dock levels and the programme, and we coordinate pit details, power supplies and door openings with the relevant trades before installation begins.
How often should equipment at our Burgess Hill site be serviced?
It depends on how hard the equipment works and on the manufacturer's recommendations. A multi-shift dock with frequent trailer movements needs more attention than a door that opens a few times a day. We suggest a schedule after looking at the equipment and how it is used, and we can line visits up with your insurance inspections where that helps.
How much does loading bay work cost?
It depends on what you need. Our published guide prices run from £120 per dock bumper to £32,000 per loading house, and a complete bay with door, leveller, shelter and safety kit is typically £13,500 to £26,000 per bay, all excluding VAT. See the prices page for every item.
Send a few photos of the dock and a short description of the problem, and we will come back to you about your Burgess Hill site.
