Universal Dock Doors | Transdek MLS

OUR UNIVERSAL DOCK DOOR

Transdek has always been the forefront of innovation when it comes to modular loading bay equipment with lifts that can convert both traditional loading docks and level access sites to accept all HGV vehicles without the need for pre-dug pits in just one day.

However, our latest lift design called the ‘Universal Dock Door’ really is the utopia of loading bays and can be quickly installed at new build warehouses or retrospectively fitted to existing sites.

The Universal Dock Door combines all our usual modular lift design benefits along with two additional unique features: a specially adapted bridge plate and a unique tail lift pocket which allows the unit to cater for any vehicle type or configuration.

TAIL LIFT POCKET

A unique design enables vehicle tail lifts to be stored and stowed underneath the lift platform in a special compartment which cannot be achieved with traditional scissor lifts.

This cuts the need to use tail-lift at DCs by up to 50%, significantly extending tail lift reliability and reducing maintenance, speeds up loading considerably, improves operator safety and allows home delivery vehicles to dock safely.

ADJUSTABLE BRIDGE PLATE

Our ‘Vandango’ bridge plate has been specially adapted to quickly adjusts its width, using hydraulics, to cater for any vehicle from 3.5T home delivery vans to a double deck trailer within a matter of seconds.

Vandango Bridge Plate

Adjusts it’s width to cater for any LGV/HGV vehicle

Tail lift pocket

Enables vehicle tail-lifts to stow underneath the lift platform in a special compartment

Modular, plug-and-play design*

Pre-clad, pre-tested, surface-mounted units are fitted straight on to the yard or warehouse floor in 1-2 days – minimises cost and disruption of install. Easily moved, if required – avoids dilapidation charges and write-off/re-purchase costs

Two-section loadhouse*

Transported as roof and base modules that are simply bolted together onsite. The loadhouse is fixed to the ground and warehouse front to provide a sealed and optionally temperature-controlled loading environment

Structurally-engineered loadhouse

Loadhouse and lift structure engineered for durable, lifetime operation in rugged logistics environments. Integrated dock bumpers and impact-dispersal system minimise potential damage from reversing vehicles

Rugged lift platforms

High point-load lift platforms engineered to withstand MHE operations for the fastest loading. Lifting mechanisms also give 2-3 times faster raise/lower speed than scissor lifts

HMI touchscreen controls*

Technologically-advanced main control panel provides rapid-diagnostics pictogram for fast, simple self-fix, which minimises downtime. Mobile login option further reduces call-out costs and enables remote troubleshooting

Twin-interlocked safety gates

Front and rear material gates are both electrically and mechanically interlocked. The front gates lock out to provide safety rails along the side of the bridge plate

Integrated safety systems

Our loadhouse pods include fully interlocked and automated exclusion zones, traffic lights, interior lighting, loading lamps, segregated personnel walkway and (optionally) doors to give operators unrivalled safety
