Fixed Dock Levelers

Fixed Dock Leveler Specifications

Our fixed hydraulic dock levelers are designed for permanent loading docks where forklifts need to move goods between the warehouse and trucks. The appropriate model depends on the required load capacity, platform dimensions, height difference and installation pit.

• Rated Load Capacity: Common options include 6, 8, 10, 12 and 15 tonnes.
• Height Difference: Designed to accommodate a height difference of approximately 400–1100 mm between the loading dock and vehicle bed, subject to the selected model and site conditions.
• Drive System: Hydraulic power unit.
• Platform: Heavy-duty steel platform with anti-slip patterned plate.
• Safety Features: Safety side skirts, emergency lowering valve and overload protection.
• Customization: Platform length, width, lifting requirements and surface protection can be specified according to project needs.

How to Choose a Fixed Dock Leveler

1. Determine the Required Load Capacity

Calculate the operating load based on the forklift, cargo and actual loading conditions. Select a rated capacity suitable for your application.

2. Confirm the Platform Dimensions

Check the loading dock width, vehicle positioning and available installation space to determine the required platform size.

3. Measure the Height Difference

Provide the loading dock height and the truck or trailer bed height range. These measurements help determine the required adjustment range.

4. Check the Installation Pit

Fixed dock levelers are installed in a prepared pit. Confirm the civil construction dimensions before installation so the equipment can fit the loading bay correctly.

5. Consider the Operating Environment

For cold storage, outdoor use or environments requiring additional corrosion protection, discuss the operating conditions and required configuration with our team.
