Loading Dock Equipment

The Loading Dock Equipment range from Action Handling offers durable and expertly engineered solutions designed to enhance workplace efficiency, safety, and flexibility. From dock levellers and bridge plates to mobile platforms and ground-level ramps, every product in this category helps streamline material handling between vehicle and warehouse operations. Built with heavy-duty steel, reinforced aluminium, or modular construction systems, they are suitable for a wide range of industrial applications including logistics centres, manufacturing plants, and retail distribution hubs.

Versatile Loading Dock Solutions

Action Handling’s modular dock systems are engineered for adaptability, making them ideal for loading bays with inconsistent height differentials. These systems are semi-permanent, allowing businesses to relocate or reconfigure layouts quickly and efficiently. Their robust design supports up to eight tonnes of axle load, ensuring reliable performance over long periods of heavy use. Compliance with Health and Safety Regulations ensures both operator safety and regulatory peace of mind.

Industrial Dock Ramps and Bridge Plates

Loading ramps and bridge plates are purpose-built to provide safe, stable access for forklifts, pallet trucks, and manual handling. Models are available in steel or high-tensile aluminium with anti-slip tread finishes and colour-marked edges for enhanced visibility. Options include ramp-only designs for fast vehicle access and ramp-plus-platform configurations that create a level working surface, protecting goods and preventing impact damage during transfer.

Collapsible Dock Shelters and Dock Lights

To complement the mechanical equipment, Action Handling provides weather-resistant dock shelters and efficient dock lighting systems. Collapsible dock shelters reduce water ingress and weather exposure, maintaining a clean, dry, and safe loading environment. Meanwhile, steel-constructed dock lights improve visibility for operatives, particularly in low-light conditions, minimising risks during loading and unloading.

Mobile Platforms and Lift Tables

Lightweight mobile platforms and lift tables make loading operations more flexible, supporting up to 2,000kg for light-duty tasks. These platforms are ideal for environments where mobility and manual handling are frequent, accommodating sack trucks, pallet trucks, or handballing goods efficiently. Adjustable legs, hinged barriers, and integrated safety features provide both practicality and operator protection.
