Spring Loaded Dock Plate

A Spring Loaded Dock Plate (SL Plate) solves a problem in some common situations. Many times a dock services the exact same truck or type of trucks several times per shift. If the loads are loaded or unloaded by handtruck, dollie or other manual methods the SL plate may be the answer.
The aluminum dock plate is fitted with a pair of spring loaded attachments that fix it in place to the dock floor. These springs allow the dock plate to be quickly and safely lowered into place for use. When finished the dock plate is lifted, aided by the springs, into it’s vertical storage position ready for the next truck. It is mounted top of dock so there is no major installation process. Most customers have the personnel and tools to do the job.
