Dock Equipment

For the application of dock equipment it is of great importance to make the right choices in an early stage of the building process.

These are the questions that need to be answered to ensure an optimum loading/unloading design:

  • How many trucks need to load / unload at the same time?
  • Do the docks for incoming goods need to be on the same side of the building as the docks
  • for outgoing goods?
  • What will be the internal routing of the goods?
  • What is the driving direction of the trucks?
  • Is a raised dock floor the best solution or a loading pit with depressed driveway approach?
  • What are the right dimensions for a loading pit?
  • Do the trucks dock straight against the building or under an angle?
  • What is the necessary working range of the dock leveller?
  • What capacity does the dock leveller need to have?
  • What internal material handling equiment is used?
  • How can the right dimensions for the dock shelter be determined?
  • What type of dock shelter is the best choice?
  • What dimensions does the sectional door need to have?
  • Does the design meet all the regulations?
