Dock Lifts and Truck Risers
Truck Risers, Wheel Risers, and Loading Dock Lifts: Solutions for Leveling Your Loading Dock
Efficient loading and unloading start with proper dock height alignment. When a trailer or truck doesn’t match the dock height, it can create unsafe conditions, increase equipment wear, and slow down operations. Truck risers, wheel risers, and loading dock lifts offer cost-effective and durable solutions to bridge these height gaps, ensuring a smooth and safe transition between trucks and docks.

Truck Risers: Creating a Level Transition
Best For: Facilities needing to raise an entire truck or trailer to dock height for a safer, more efficient loading process.
Truck risers close the vertical gap between a truck bed and the loading dock, ensuring a level transition and minimizing damage to dock equipment such as dock boards, dock plates, and levelers. By properly aligning the truck at dock height, truck risers increase safety, reduce impact damage, and streamline loading operations.
Wheel Risers: Versatile and OSHA-Compliant Solutions
Best For: Raising individual wheels or axles of trucks and semi-trailers for proper dock positioning.
Wheel risers provide a safe, stable, and efficient way to align truck and trailer beds with loading docks. These heavy-duty steel or aluminum risers accommodate single or tandem axle trucks and can add 6” to 12” in height, depending on the application. Available in portable or permanently installed models, wheel risers help eliminate below-dock loading hazards and ensure smooth forklift access into trailers.
Loading Dock Lifts: Maximum Accessibility for Any Truck Size
Best For: Facilities that require flexible, height-adjustable loading solutions for a variety of truck sizes.
Loading dock lifts provide 100% accessibility, enabling facilities to service any truck height, from low step vans to high reefer semis. Unlike dock levelers, which have limited operating ranges, dock lifts can easily accommodate ground-to-dock transitions and allow for reverse loading when moving goods from ground level up to truck beds. Available in recessed and top-of-ground models, dock lifts increase safety, productivity, and efficiency while minimizing manual handling risks.
For customized height adjustments and improved loading dock performance, truck risers, wheel risers, and loading dock lifts provide the safest and most effective solutions to keep your operations running smoothly.
