Autumn is almost upon us – as well as its downpour of leaves and debris.  Dock levelers and dock doors increase in wear and reduce in effectiveness when leaves, sticks, packaging products, pebbles, etc. are continually tossed into the mechanical components.

Especially during the Fall season, a solid preventative maintenance plan is crucial for the safety and longevity of your warehouse equipment. Routine maintenance extends the life of your equipment and also helps to prevent the possibility of downtime and accidents. Without a maintenance plan, premature failure of your equipment is almost certain.

Maintaining Equipment Efficiency – Your equipment is the foundation of your operations

The lifeforce of your operations is driven by the operational efficiency of your workplace.  In order for you to meet your client’s needs, all your storage and material moving equipment must be in top working order.  Safety is also a consideration when your employees rely on the equipment to function properly every day.  A loose spring could cause a dock door to crash down, a malfunctioning hydraulic on your dock leveler could cause a forklift or pallet jack to shift and drop a load, a damaged pallet rack upright could compromise the integrity of the entire bay.  A regularly scheduled preventative maintenance plan will keep your equipment running at peak performance and will extend the life of your equipment – saving you time and money.
