Alapont offers two types of drawbridge:
Sliding Drawbridges, operating along a guide rail, and Fixed Drawbridges.
The platform is constructed from special aluminium profiles and installed over a supporting runner which includes wheels with ball bearings for effortless lateral displacement. Bridges can slide downwards over an open profile steel guide rail before walking over them from above.
It is positioned vertically upwards when unused and held in place by an anti-fall mechanism which automatically closes upon lifting the bridge.
Furthermore, the laterally positioned drawing arm permits a slow, safe, effortless descent down to the truck’s loading bed.
