For a product-based business to operate efficiently, it needs speedy loading and unloading of its deliveries. Where there is a system in place to ensure this, stock gets where it needs to be without unnecessary delays. Loading dock equipment, manufactured by Hörmann and supplied and installed by Cooks Industrial Doors Ltd will radically improve the efficiency of your deliveries.
External Solution: Dock Levellers
Dock Levellers, or elevation platforms are intended to compensate for the discrepancies in height between the lorry floor and your loading bay entrance. Your deliveries could arrive in all sorts of different models of delivery lorry. A dock leveller allows you to make adjustments for each different type of lorry. Your goods can then be unloaded quickly along a horizontal platform. The dock leveller is fitted to the exterior of your property, so you can still have a lockable industrial door behind it keeping your premises secure.
Flexible: Dock Shelters
Flexible flap dock shelters are another design that enable different size lorries to efficiently use your loading bay. As the lorry reverses in, the flaps at the sides and top of your loading dock flex to fit around the lorry back. Our team of experienced engineers can quickly assemble and install the frames and flaps of your dock shelter – leaving you ready to go.
Inflatable: Dock Seals
When you need to ensure a good seal between your lorry back and your loading bay, we recommend Hörmann inflatable dock seals. These come into their own when maintaining the temperature of an environment is important – for example, when dealing with the delivery and storage of frozen food. Inflatable seals prevent rapid temperature exchange when it is warm outside.
