There can be drawbacks when using
a lift platform to serve single and
double deck vehicles on the same
bay, says Easilift, which has
developed the Double-Dok to
address these issues.

This is a blend of dock levelling
and lifting platform technology that
the company believes presents a
flexible, cost-effective solution to
changing usage patterns of the
loading bay. The launch of the
Double-Dok counters calls within
the industry for a change to the
height of loading bays to service the
growth in double deck trailer usage.

Based on years of experience,
Easilift believes that, in most cases,
such an approach will almost
inevitably deliver a solution lacking
in operational flexibility and
efficiency.
