Add trailer safety to loading docks
Z-Deck Truck Leveler provides full-width access to virtually any load. Features Z-shaped deck with a low-profile, 158-in. collapsed height. The deck allows a variety of trailers to be serviced at or above dock height. Minimizes slope of lifting surface. Improves safety by keeping tires even and reducing the potential for trailers to move away from the dock. Built-in dual wheel guides provide consistent trailer alignment at docks. Surface-mounted design eases installation by eliminating the need for a costly below-grade pit. Product line also includes various styles of wheel risers, which raise trailer to dock level for smooth loading and unloading. Rite-Hite Corp., Milwaukee, Wis.
