In today’s demanding logistics environment, your loading dock levelers are critical for keeping operations moving safely. These devices create a bridge between your dock and trailers, and their constant use makes regular repair and maintenance essential. A broken leveler is not just an operational problem; it poses a serious physical danger to employees. Even if an accident is avoided, the resulting downtime can severely disrupt your supply chain and become very costly.
Choosing the right leveler for your specific workload and ensuring it is properly maintained is a fundamental part of protecting your workers and your business. At Southeastern Facilities Maintenance Group LLC (SEFMG), we provide complete support for your equipment, including ongoing repairs and maintenance on both new and existing units.
We specialize in repairing all major types of loading dock levelers. No matter what system your facility uses, our technicians have years of experience to accurately diagnose issues and return your equipment to safe, reliable operation.
We repair all components of mechanical dock levelers, including their levers, gears, and chains. Our service addresses common wear-and-tear issues like sticking mechanisms, difficulty in deploying the lip, and problems with the deck’s movement. We ensure the platform moves smoothly and locks securely to maintain the safety and simplicity these units are known for.
Our technicians are trained to service hydraulic systems, from fixing leaks in cylinders and hoses to repairing or replacing the hydraulic power packs and motors. We troubleshoot problems such as failure to lift, slow operation, or failure to retract. We ensure the hydraulic system has the correct pressure and function for safe, powered operation.
We provide specialized repair for pneumatic dock levelers, focusing on their unique airbag system and electrical components. This includes patching or replacing damaged airbags, fixing compressor issues, and repairing control valves. We get your pneumatic system operating smoothly without the need for constant oiling, helping you maintain a cleaner worksite.
We provide dock leveler repair services in 5 steps:
The process begins when you contact us to report an issue with your equipment. Our team will gather essential details about the problem, the make and model of your leveler, and your facility’s location. Based on this information, we immediately dispatch one of our certified technicians to your site, scheduling the visit at a time that minimizes disruption to your operations.
Upon arrival, our expert will perform a detailed inspection of your malfunctioning dock leveler. This involves testing its mechanical, hydraulic, or pneumatic functions to pinpoint the exact reason for the failure. We then provide you with a clear, straightforward explanation of what is broken, why it happened, and a detailed estimate for the necessary parts and labor to fix it, with no hidden fees.
Once you approve the estimate, our technician will begin the repair using specialized tools and high-quality replacement parts. Whether it involves replacing worn mechanical hinges, sealing a hydraulic leak, or repairing an airbag in a pneumatic system, we work efficiently to restore full functionality. Our priority is to complete the repair correctly the first time, ensuring the leveler operates safely and reliably.
After the repair is complete, we do not simply leave. The technician will rigorously test the dock leveler through multiple full cycles to ensure everything is working as intended. This includes checking for proper alignment, secure locking mechanisms, and smooth operation. We ensure the equipment meets all original safety specifications before certifying it is ready for use.
Before concluding the service, our technician will discuss what was found and may offer basic advice on how to prevent similar problems in the future. We provide a detailed report of the service performed for your records.
