BK Systems LTD Leeds began life as a small firm in 1987, plastering homes and small commercial projects in the West Yorkshire area. Year on year, they have expanded their range of innovative, high-quality products and services now becoming a multi-divisional company that can handle drylining, partitioning, suspended ceilings, a variety of floor screeds, resin floors, underfloor heating, acoustic flooring and flowable insulation, in addition to that first skill; plastering, that started it all off.
They recently had a manual handling problem and needed to move a bespoke cylinder cupboard built for the purpose of new apartments in Leeds. After extensive research trying to find a solution, Chris Kerfoot, BK Systems LTD Leeds Director contacted Handling Equipment UK for help.
After discussing the application with Chris, we provided a Hand Pushed Battery Lift Counterbalanced Stacking Truck on a Sale or Return basis.
Chris said ‘The truck provided stops manual handling and therefore provides a saving from projected 5 men to lift and move for approximately 30 minutes per item to a matter of minutes for 3 men saving time, money and ensuring responsible health and safety practice on a construction site’
On his experience of working with Handling Equipment UK for the first time, Chris continued ‘We we looked after by Marie Lacey. Marie has been incredibly helpful after BK systems extensive hours of research to find a machine which was fit for our bespoke purpose. Marie gave us great insight after we explained what we would like the machine for. She offered a plan to us, showing HEUK’s willingness to not only offer great advice but helped to provide confidence through a 7 day sale or return which was above and beyond. Very rare in today’s commercial world do we find companies like HEUK. Marie is a credit to the company’
We are delighted to have been able to help BK Systems and look forward to working with Chris and the team again in the future.
