The least expensive option. This style requires no electrical power, usually being operated by a pull-chain and being spring-based for the upward position and hold-down for the downward position. The mechanical leveler is both cost effective and efficient for basic loading and unloading. Our mechanical levelers feature a four inch tilt, which is essential for keeping the lip level with the trailer bed. They also offer weight capacities as high as 45,000 pounds, and deep tooth Ratchet Hold-down.
Requires less maintenance, and is one of the more versatile levelers available, also one of the safest. Hydraulic levelers have safety features other levelers do not, and there is the option to add additional features as well. The controls for a hydraulic leveler are usually mounted on the wall near the dock opening. This is the best choice for high capacity loading and provides a smooth and quiet operation. Our heavy duty, North American made Hydraulic Levelers can hold weights as high as 100,000 pounds.
Another form of leveler is the dock lift. Lifts, or scissor lifts, are very similar to levelers and they can both serve the same function. You can choose from, electric, mechanical, or hydraulic, and lifts can be pit mounted or surface mounted. The use of any of the above safety levelers, or platform lifts, will reduce the injury to you or your employees by allowing industrial vehicles, such as fork lifts, to do the heavy lifting.
Moulded bumpers are North American made and best suited for low traffic docks, these reinforced prime rubber and nylon cord bumpers are one solid piece of protection that will not warp, and can hold up in any weather condition. These are also a good choice for the protection of warehouse walls against indoor industrial vehicles.
Our Rubber Laminated bumpers are heavy duty, designed to withstand high impacts, and capable of absorbing 80% of force from impact. Our Laminated Dock Bumpers are made with plies of recycled airplane and truck tire material, and are completely maintenance free. Compressed with steel angles and ¾ inch steel rods keep it secure. This is an excellent choice for high traffic loading docks.
