Edge of Dock Levelers for Loading Docks
Edge of dock levelers (EODs) are the go-to solution for loading docks with limited space. Perfect for locations where installing a full-size ramp isn’t possible, they offer safe and efficient loading and unloading without structural modifications.
No Pit, No Downtime
Because EODs don’t require a pit, there’s no need for construction work. This not only avoids disruptions to daily operations but also reduces installation costs and saves valuable time.
