✓ No pit, no problem: These edge-of-dock levelers mount to the edge of the dock rather than being installed in a pit. It eliminates the cost of pit construction.
✓ Perfect fit for tight spaces: Edge-of-dock levelers require limited floor space making it perfect for tight spaces that require access to trailers.
✓ Easy operation: The mechanical edge of dock levelers are easy and ergonomic to use, simply insert the comfort grip handle, pull back, and push forward with a spring-assisted lip. On the other hand, the hydraulic-assisted model activates with just a touch of a button at a NEMA4-rated (IP65) control station.
