    Portable Dock Plates with Forklift Loops

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Dock Plates. Portable Dock Plates with Forklift Loops.
    The heaviest dock plates we offer, these are built to endure high-traffic use. Forklift loops on the top flip up for easy maneuvering with a forklift and fold down when not in use. Use plates to bridge the gap between a truck and the dock when loading and unloading with forklifts, battery-operated hand trucks, and other powered equipment. They have a diamond surface texture for positive traction and lips on the sides lessen the chance of vehicle runoff.
    Anchoring Pins—Plates have anchoring pins that you drop into any of the eight holes along their edges—this secures the plate in the space between the dock and the truck.

    Steel ramps are strong enough to hold up to frequent use. A lip on each side keeps wheels from running off the edge. To keep them from shifting, lock them to your container with the included chains. These ramps have loops built into the top, so you can pick them up and move them with your forklift. The loops fold flat when they’re not in use.

    Create a walkway to maneuver hand trucks on or off vehicles and trailers. These ramps come with chains to secure them in place. One end is sloped to provide a smooth transition from the ramp to a truck bed or the ground. The ramp surface has ridges to give wheels traction, and a lip is welded to each side to keep them from running off the edge. Made from aluminum, these ramps are durable and corrosion resistant, so you can use them outdoors.
    Note: Not for use with pallet trucks and forklifts.
    Foldable—Foldable ramps bend in half for storage. Carry them from job to job with the built-in handle. They have a lighter duty construction and lower capacity than comparable solid ramps.

    Create a smooth transition over curbs and thresholds. Often used for moving hand trucks, these ramps can also serve as an accessible pathway for wheelchairs and scooters. Made of aluminum, they are lightweight and easy to handle. They can also withstand outdoor use. The ramp surface has a diamond or ridged texture for traction. A barrier along each side keeps wheels from running off the edge.

    Drive a fully loaded forklift into a truck, trailer, or dock door from ground level. When you’re done, these ramps break down to the size of a double-wide pallet for storage. They’re often referred to as yard ramps because they’re common in shipping yards. Made entirely of aluminum, these ramps stand up to the weather. The perforated surface gives your vehicle traction in all conditions and allows rain, snow, and dirt to pass through. These ramps have two included ratchet straps to secure them to a vehicle and prevent them from pulling away. Plates on either end facilitate smooth transitions from ground to ramp and ramp to truck.
    No tools are needed for setup. Assembly can be completed in as little as 15 minutes with two people and a forklift.
    Note: Check local, state, and federal codes, including OSHA, for safe set up and operating practices.

    The tracks on these ramps retract after use for convenient carrying and storage. Originally designed for wheelchairs, they are useful in an industrial setting to roll equipment up a few stairs using a hand truck. Made of aluminum, these platforms are lightweight and easy to handle. They have an antislip surface and lips on the sides to lessen the chance of runoff.
