How Should You Select A Dock Leveler?

Dock levelers should be selected based on key warehouse variables such as load capacity, truck sizes, and weights to ensure they can handle the required capacity. Consider the type of truck being unloaded, how the doors open, and whether the dock leveler aligns properly with the dock height—whether too low or too high. Additionally, decide between powered, mechanical, or manual dock levelers, depending on the availability of power in the dock area.

Which Products Do Customers Commonly Upgrade?

The most popular dock and door equipment upgrades include a hydraulic dock leveler, vehicle restraint with lights, and dock seals and shelters.

What Safety-Enhancing Items Should I Consider For The Loading Dock?

When upgrading your loading dock, consider safety-enhancing features such as security gates to secure the dock area and vehicle restraints with light communication systems to improve operational safety while loading and unloading trailers.

How Can I Ensure My Loading Dock Remains Operational During Power Outages?

In the event of a power outage, a mechanical dock leveler can be operated manually, ensuring continued functionality. For facilities with multiple dock doors, it's advisable to have at least one equipped with a mechanical dock leveler to maintain shipping and receiving operations during power disruptions.
