Vertical Storing Dock Leveler
Vertical Storing Dock Leveler: Elevate Your Loading Dock Efficiency
The DockStar vertical storing dock leveler is an ideal solution for facilities that require strict temperature control—especially cold storage and climate-controlled loading docks. When stored in the vertical position inside the building, the leveler allows the overhead door to close fully to the pit floor, helping reduce energy loss, block debris and pests, and improve security. The result is a cleaner, more secure, and more energy-efficient dock environment.
