Edge of Dock Leveler


Buildings do not always have docks that match the exact height of trucks pulling into those docks. Over the years, trucks have gotten taller. Older buildings can have low docks and require some sort of dock leveler to facilitate fork truck traffic from the dock to the truck.

There are two categories of dock levelers that facilities use for this:
A. Pit mounted dock levelers. B. Edge of dock levelers.

An edge of dock leveler stops the truck in exactly the right position with two rubber bumpers on the side of the unit. When the truck is in position, the ramp is raised into position hydraulically OR with a tool known as a ratchet riser. This creates a bridge between the dock and the bed of the truck which forklifts, fork trucks, pallet jacks, and workers can cross.

The edge of dock levelers can handle capacities ranging from 20,000 to 25,000 pounds. They are easy to position hydraulically or by lifting a self-storing handle.

Edge of dock levelers include bumper and bumper blocks and can be ordered in widths of 72" and 78" upon request.
