Dock Levellers

Dock levelers is a device that bridges the height and distance difference between the warehouse floor and the vehicle in the most effective way possible. It is a height adjustable platform that ensures a seamless transition from dock to truck, reducing the risk of forklift accidents, which can lead to fatal injuries as well as forklift and product damage. It’s usually only a simple metal plate that’s raised from its stored position and placed onto the truck’s rear.

Dock levelers are made of heavy duty corrosion resistant steel which guarantee low maintenance and long run use. Rubber bumpers are fixed at the front side of dock levelers to prevent damage of its structure.
