Edge-of-Dock Levelers 

Freight depots with trucks of a consistent truck bed height opt for edge-of-dock levelers.  They are low cost and don't require breaking concrete.  They normally mount to the face of the dock and can be placed in a small recessed pit. This is a light-duty low-cost alternative to the in-pit style full-size loading dock levelers. Also used when a pit cannot be utilized or as a retrofit. It is typically used in an environment with minimal difference between trailer bed and dock and the unit is typically mounted to the dock face.   

Edge-of-dock levelers are not recommended for high-volume dock traffic

Our service crews have the most  common dock leveler parts on their trucks for all manufacturers of the edge-of-dock levelers for loading docks:

Bluff Edge of Dock Leveler, Blue Giant Edge of Dock Leveler, Copperloy Edge of Dock Leveler, DLM Edge of Dock Leveler, Kelley Edge of Dock Leveler, PowerAmp Edge of Dock Leveler, McGuire Edge of Dock Leveler, Serco/Kelley Edge of Dock Levelers, Vestil Edge of Dock Levelers, Rite Hite Edge of Dock Levelers

Our installation company can provide an electric edge-of-dock leveler using hydraulic pump systems.  They represent a low-cost hydraulically operated unit that bridges the gap between building and truck where a minimal variance exists between dock and truck with a recommended working range of +/-3” and a maximum operating range of +/-5” above and below dock level. A standard NEMA 4 single pushbutton control provides easy activation of the deck and lip. It has quite a dependable operation via a two-cylinder design with deck and lip cylinders.
