Loading Dock Equipment

A dock leveler is a fixed bridge designed to permit the safe and efficient flow of goods into and out of a building. In order to accomplish this, a dock leveler must be able to support extremely heavy loads, service a wide range of truck heights, and compensate for tilted trucks.

There two basic types of dock levelers based on the method of activation. Mechanical dock levelers are spring biased upwards and incorporate a hold down mechanism, while hydraulic units are powered by an electro-hydraulic system. While the initial cost of a mechanical dock leveler is less than a hydraulic unit, the long term operating cost for a hydraulic dock leveler is generally lower.

Many trucks are canted to one side due to unevenly distributed loads. Tilt allows dock levelers to compensate for this canted condition. Without tilt, the dock leveler lip would not lie flush with the trailer bed. Tilt is important when a fork lift is backing out of a trailer as it prevents damage to the fork lift tires, drive train and transmission. Unlike other manufacturers, every Blue Giant dock leveler comes standard with maintained tilt.
