Many businesses need a loading dock leveler to ease the loading and unloading of their products in their facilities. Still, they may not have the capacity or need to install a full-sized dock leveler. An edge mount leveler solves this problem. It is made of heavy-duty steel or other strong materials that make it durable. At the same time, they are easier and cheaper to install, which makes them suitable for small- to medium-scale businesses that can’t afford or need full-sized dock levelers.

Core Uses of Edge of Dock Leveler 

Small and medium-scale businesses that move large quantities of goods often need a device to bridge the gap between the loading dock and flatbed. However, complete dock levelers are usually expensive and take up a lot of space. An edge leveler solves this problem by costing time, space, and too much resources. Other uses of edge-of-lock levelers include:

  • The steel strength of edge-of-lock levelers allows them to handle medium-weight goods, like consumer goods and parcels, in limited space. Heavier products would require full-sized levelers.
  • They speed up the loading and unloading process in many small-scale facilities by providing a quick way to align docks with flatbeds.
  • The stability of edge levelers can reduce the damage to goods during loading and unloading.
  • They provide increased and stable accessibility for operations that rely on forklifts to move goods from place to place.
  • They are helpful in shared or multi-use docks because they can accommodate a variety of truck heights. However, the trucks should all be within a limited range.

Types of Companies That Use Our Loading Dock Leveler Installation 

For many businesses, an edge of dock leveler will be an obstacle rather than an aid. However, the following companies can benefit from an edge-of-dock leveler:

  • Small and Medium Warehouses and Distribution Centers that have limited space and handle light to medium-weight packages. 
  • Retail Shops that receive regular shipments that don’t weigh much. These businesses can use the cost-effective installation of edge dock levelers to improve their logistics.
  • Postal and Package Services that handle a steady flow of light to medium-weight parcels that don’t require full-sized dock levelers.
  • Light Industrial Facilities with budget constraints and simple loading/unloading requirements. 
  • Manufacturing Factories that deal in moderately sized products and consistent truck heights that don’t need the adjustability of full-sized dock levelers.

Factors That Affect Loading Dock Leveler Installation Cost 

Edge-of-dock levelers are cost-effective and take up less space, but several factors can drive up their installation costs. It is essential to consider the following factors during the installation process:

  • Dock height and structural modifications that may impact the installation process and costs.
  • Customization and additional features like an extended lip can increase the cost of dock edge leveler installation.
  • Using higher-grade materials like high-grade steel and special coatings can improve the durability of the leveler, but it would also cost more.
  • Site conditions (e.g., uneven floors, structural issues, etc.) and the necessary electrical work required can impact the price of installation.
  • Edge-of-dock levelers require specialization to fix, which can drive up labor costs and increase the cost of installation.
