About This Service

Dock lifts (also called scissor lifts or vertical lifts) provide a flexible loading solution when traditional dock levelers aren't feasible. Perfect for facilities without raised docks, these lifts safely raise trucks and trailers to your facility's floor level, enabling efficient loading and unloading operations. We install, service, and repair all types of dock lift systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What weight capacity do I need for my dock lift?

Most facilities need 6,000-10,000 lb capacity for standard forklifts and pallets. Heavy-duty operations may require 15,000-30,000+ lb capacity. We'll assess your needs during consultation.

Can dock lifts be used outdoors?

Yes. We install weather-resistant models designed for outdoor use with corrosion protection and drainage systems for all-weather operation.

How often do dock lifts need maintenance?

We recommend quarterly inspections for high-use lifts and semi-annual maintenance for standard use. Regular maintenance ensures safety and prevents hydraulic failures.
