Rite-Hite's RHV Vertical Storing Hydraulic Dock Leveler offers superior environmental and security control and a smooth transition between the warehouse floor and the trailer bed.
Rite-Hite’s drive-thru design is constructed to help maintain cold chain integrity, environmental control, safety and security; ideal for food or cold storage.
Vertical Storing leveler allow trailer doors to open inside the loading dock instead of on the drive approach. This helps reduce dust, debris and rodents from entering the facility and eliminates the energy loss from a pit style leveler when stored.
- It also means security seals are always removed and placed from inside the facility, improving cold chain integrity and enhancing the security of products and processes.
Overhead doors close all the way to the pit floor to maximum environmental control. Option to pair with a VHLS under-leveler or PitMaster™ V seal system, the loading dock will have complete 4-sided contaminant protection; blocking white light.
The importance of safety at the loading dock cannot be understated. From the loading / unloading process to planned maintenance, there are many places to prioritize for safety.
Safe-T-Pit® utilizes sensors that disable leveler operation when movement is detected in the pit for an additional layer of pedestrian safety.
Self-Flexing Deck utilizes L-beam stringers to increase deck strength and allow the leveler deck to flex up to 4” under its own weight. This structural design means the leveler maintains constant contact with the trailer bed at all time; even after the weight of the forklift has been removed from the deck.
