Dock Levelers

Easy Rack Dock Levelers
Dock levelers provide movable, vertical ramp platforms that can be raised and lowered to create a level surface between the loading dock and the interior of a truck trailer. A dock leveler must be stable and able to handle extremely heavy loads. Because trailer beds can vary extensively in size, dock levelers have to be able to reach a variety of heights, and they must also provide a stable platform that provides traction for material handling equipment, personnel, and odd-sized or cumbersome loads.

It can be ordered with weather stripping if you plan to use it outdoors. You can also have it built either with legs or without leg, depending on where you plan to use the device.

Electric Hydraulic Dock Leveler
This unit is engineered with state of the art hydraulic lifting at the push of a button. If your facility has an exceptionally busy dock, we recommend that you purchase this unit because of its speed, reliability, and exceptional weight capacity. When the operated depresses the “raise” button, the hydraulic pump raises the deck and extends the lip. Once the electric hydraulic dock leveler is at the desired level, the operated releases the raise button and deck descends to the trailer bed. When the truck pulls away, the deck descends to full down position, trips the limit switch and returns automatically to the level support cross traffic position.

The Easy Rack electric hydraulic dock leveler can be ordered in 1 phase or 3 phase power options. The unit includes 2 laminated bumpers and a control box with a red emergency stop button. This is the most powerful unit available in our stock, capable of handling up to 80,000 lbs. in weight.
