Operational Simplicity
- Operator steps on release pedal and gently pushes forward.
- Lip is easily repositioned for end-loading using the operating handle.
- Requires only approximately 38 lbs. of lifting force to store.
- Maximizes security, cleanliness and floor space.
- Has fewer parts and requires minimal lubrication at only two points for superior cost of ownership.
- Operates from a standing position - No bending over required.
Minimizes Energy Loss
- LoadHog allows the loading dock door to be closed tight against the floor. No Pit means no gaps where energy can be lost.
Promotes Cleanliness
While building improvements are typically the tenant's responsibility, having access to a cost effect dock solution is beneficial to developers
- No significant expense associated with retro work.
- LoadHog requires no saw cutting or demolition of concrete as is the case with new recessed concrete pits.
- No limited access to the loading dock due to pit construction or concrete cure time.
- No dust or debris in operating facility as a result of construction work.
Simple & Clean Installation
- No pit means no sanitary issues related to debris build-up or pest infiltration.
- Small footprint allows easy access for cleaning and routine maintenance.
- Because there’s no pit, spray wash down procedures can be completed more efficiently.
Conventional Cost of Ownership
- Conventional mechanical dock levelers require construction of a recessed concrete pit. Construction costs combined with the price of the dock leveler and required maintenance and service over five years make mechanicals a high-priced alternative.
Loading Dock Door Damage
- General warehousing facilities experience significant damage to door panels and overhead door tracks. Combining the LoadHog with a TKO impactable dock door and TKO’s exclusive Impact-A-Track™ provides a higher degree of protection against costly overhead door and track damage.
