A dock bumper protects your building and vehicles from getting damaged. Dock bumpers are fixed to the warehouse wall and on each side of the dock leveller.
Did you know that we have a special bumper for every application that you could think of?
A dock bumper literally creates a buffer between building and vehicle. On a loading dock, an accident can happen very quickly. The driver of the lorry can make a steering or estimating error while reversing. The result is hard contact between the truck and the loading bay. This can lead to damage to the vehicle and the building. As a result, the costs can sometimes be high. To prevent accidents with the associated costs, dock bumpers can be mounted on both sides of the dock leveller. The bumpers prevent damage by absorbing the impact forces of the vehicle.
In our wide range of loading dock bumpers, we can distinguish two categories. The adjustable/movable dock bumper and the non-movable/fixed dock bumper. The adjustable dock bumpers are vertically movable. Thus, they follow the upward and downward movements of the lorry during loading and unloading. This prevents damage to the dock leveller and the vehicle. In addition, we offer a wide range of fixed/non-movable models, depending on the intensity of loading and unloading. Curious about which dock bumper is most suitable for your application? Take a look at the handy overview below, in which we have put all dock bumpers and their characteristics next to each other.
Different loading situations require different dock bumpers. Each loading bay is uniquely designed to suit the operations of the company in question. This is why at Loading Systems the right solution for the customer is the deciding factor. To make the choice easier, the bumpers are subdivided into the categories: low, medium and high loading frequency. Curious about all the possibilities? Then why not seek advice from one of our specialists. Then together we will look at what best suits your needs.
