Spring Loaded Aluminum Dock Plate
Spring Loaded Aluminum Dock Plate
Effortless Dock Access for Repeated Truck Servicing
The Spring Loaded Aluminum Dock Plate (SL Plate) is a practical solution for docks that repeatedly service the same type of truck. Designed for manual loading methods such as hand trucks and dollies, it features a spring-loaded mechanism that allows it to be quickly lowered into place for use and effortlessly lifted back into a vertical storage position when not needed. Mounted on top of the dock, it requires minimal installation. The diamond deck aluminum plate ensures a non-skid surface, with optional 3M adhesive grit strips for enhanced traction. Each SL Plate is custom-built to fit specific dock locations and operational needs.

Mechanical Pit Leveler M68R & M78R
- Fast, safe install with height adjusters operated while standing on building floor-no need for installer to be under leveler and no shimming/welding needed in rear of pit
- Adjusters quickly position the dock level with the building floor Improved safety — the installer is never under the leveler
- Levelers ship with four steel fork loops bolted to the deck, which improves stability when lifting from a truck. The loops help with forklift placement into a pit from inside or outside the building, and helps to minimize levelers sliding while stacked on top of each other
- Cut outs identify weld points to the curb angle for faster installation
- Lifter arm is mounted to the rear of the frame instead of sitting on pit floor. No need to shim or weld under the lifter arm
- Base frame is open all the way to the rear of the pit for easy access with no cross beams or places to trap debris
- C-channel beams create a strong deck structure and allows moisture to dry
- Deck design eliminates the transition angle which is a frequent repair on many levelers
- Deck hinge is fully supported across the entire width of the deck to enhance long term durability
- Durable textured powder coat finish
- Compliant with ANSI MH30.1-2022

- Designed with an optimized beveled lip to reduce bumps and damage to cargo and material handling equipment
- Reduces shocks and jolts to workers by creating a level pathway
- Facilitates fast movement of material handling equipment and forklifts
- Release chain for deck operation is user friendly and easy to pull
- The hold down is easy to operate
- Leveler is well-balanced for quick, easy articulation and automatically maintains positive lip contact with trailer movements
