Edge of Dock Levelers for Loading Docks

An edge of dock plate is a type of loading dock equipment used to bridge the gap between a loading dock and a truck or trailer. It is typically made of steel and is designed to provide a smooth transition between the dock and the truck bed, allowing forklifts or other equipment to easily move goods between the two surfaces. Edge of dock plates are typically installed at the edge of the loading dock and are raised and lowered using a hydraulic or mechanical mechanism. They are an alternative to traditional dock levelers, which require a pit to be built into the loading dock. Edge of dock plates are commonly used in facilities with low to medium volume shipping and receiving operations. They are easy to install, cost-effective, and require less maintenance compared to dock levelers. However, they have a limited weight capacity and are not suitable for heavy-duty applications.security cages security cages for storage storage cage wire cage storage
