Commonly used in the warehousing, logistics, distribution and FMCG industries, dock levellers offer an efficient way to bridge the gap between a loading bay and trailer bed, compensating and overcoming differences in vehicle load heights.
We offer a wide range of low maintenance and completely durable modular dock levellers, that are built to your specific requirements with load capacities of 600kg - 1500kg
The telescopic lip range can be extended or retracted utilising separate controls, ensuring ultimate positioning accuracy onto the vehicle bed. As the vehicle bed moves up and down during the loading and unloading process the leveller floats automatically with it.
We can help you select the right size dock leveller, layout, service and maintenance plan to best suit your requirements.
Each Loading Systems dock leveller is provided with a CE marking and complies with all safety aspects stipulated in the European Directive EN 1398: 2009.
Our thermally insulated load house are often used to expand existing buildings or where internal space is limited and are also used to extend space within leased properties that have building restrictions.
They are also the ideal flexible solution for taller and difficult to access double deck trailers.
When combined with the loading ramp, our loading houses come complete with docking system, dock leveller, dock shelter and sectional doors.

Dock shelters and dock seals protect your goods from the ever-changing weather conditions, prevent draughts, help reduce pest ingress, and save energy by sealing the gap between trailer and dock.
We work with you to select the right size dock seal, retractable dock shelter, inflatable shelter, foam pad seals or a combination solution to best suit your requirements, depending on the ambient or freezer conditions, and trailer sizes.
We have a comprehensive range of low maintenance dock shelters and seals to suit all loading bay environments, including warehouses, distribution hubs, logistics centres and manufacturing environments.
Each of our loading systems offices, and specialist dock shelter and seal engineers carry stock spares for emergency call-out purposes, with the aim of completing the emergency repair on a first-fix visit.
The areas around the loading bay can be dangerous for pedestrians and forklift drivers. Vehicles have been known to drive-off, creep away from the loading bay while the vehicle is still being loaded or tip forward if too much weight is placed towards the front of the trailer.
We offer a range of vehicle restraint systems to address your safety concerns.
Surface Mounted SLSC Vehicle Restraints are our most common surface mounted automatic vehicle restraints and are fitted in conjunction with wheel guides, traffic lights and mimic lights on the internal control panel.
Pitbull Restraints are fitted to the dock wall or yard floor grabbing the rear trailer bar, with a simple to use push button operation.
Universal In-Ground Auto Chocks are flush mounted vehicle restraints embedded in the ground. When not in use the ground is left completely flat, enabling the yard to be swept and cleaned.
Our lifting platforms (scissor lifts) are ideal for lifting and moving loads between different levels where the height difference is less than two metres, such as loading bays and docks.
Available in a wide range of standard and bespoke sizes and finishes, our platforms are suitable for internal and external use, including cold storage.
All lifts can be equipped with handrails, gates, hydraulic power pack enclosures, bridging plates and hinged bridge plates to ensure additional operator safety, and smooth transfer of goods from loading bay to vehicle.
A wide range of capacities are available. Lift specification can be provided for forklift trucks, and all other Mechanical Handling Equipment (MHE) use.
