Mechanical dock levelers are an economical solution to basic applications, while still providing strength and durability. These levelers use a pull chain activation to raise the deck. The operator then simply walks the deck back down to the bed of a trailer or to a stored position. Although these units require more regular maintenance, the simplicity of install and operation make for an economical solution.


Air-powered dock levelers are an economical alternative to hydraulic levelers, but are still operated with a push-button activation for ease of use. Powered with an airbag or bellows system used to raise and lower the deck. When paired with a planned maintenance program by Docks.N.Doors, these units provide cost savings over the life of the equipment.

Hydraulic dock levelers are push-button activated and have the highest capacity available. They utilize fully powered raise and lip extension functions with hydraulic cylinders and individual or multi-unit hydraulic pump and motor stations.
