Overview

A Compact Solution for Efficient Dock Operations

The NGT Edge of Dock Leveler is designed to bridge the transition between a loading dock and the bed of a positioned truck, creating a smoother path for material handling equipment.

Unlike conventional dock levelers installed within a recessed pit, an edge-of-dock leveler is mounted at the front edge of the loading platform, reducing installation complexity where the application and dock geometry are suitable.

It is particularly useful for warehouses, factories and distribution facilities where vehicles generally arrive at relatively consistent bed heights.

Applications

Edge of Dock vs Pit-Mounted Dock Leveler

No Conventional Dock Pit Required

One of the strongest reasons to choose an edge-of-dock leveler is its installation format.

Instead of placing the complete leveler inside a recessed dock pit, the unit is installed at the edge of the existing dock face.

Edge of Dock Leveler Pit-Mounted Dock Leveler
Installation Dock edge Recessed dock pit
Civil Work Lower Higher
Platform Size Compact Larger
Height Compensation Limited range Wider range
Retrofit Applications Excellent Requires suitable construction
Vehicle Height Variation  Best with relatively consistent vehicles Better for wider variation
Initial Complexity Lower Higher
Best For Compact/retrofit loading bays High-volume comprehensive dock operations

Which One Should You Choose?

Choose an Edge of Dock Leveler when vehicle-bed heights are relatively consistent and you want a compact loading solution with less civil modification.

Choose a Pit-Mounted Dock Leveler when your facility handles a wider range of vehicle heights or requires greater vertical compensation and intensive dock operation.
