Loading Dock Maintenance – Issues 

Periodic Dock Maintenance will minimize problems and add life to your dock equipment.   Below are a few questions to ask yourself.

• In the winter does cold air fill your loading dock area due to faulty dock seals and insulation around your loading dock?  
• Is there garbage accumulating under the loading dock  possibly creating a fire hazard?  
• Do the springs require adjusting?  
• Are the cylinders leaking oil?
• When was the last inspection or maintenance performed?

For more information or to arrange a free inspection contact our service department.   We will arrange a visit to inspect your existing dock equipment and provide a detail report on the condition of your dock equipment as well as a recommended periodic maintenance program.
