Dock and industrial door service across West Point
Downtown West Point lies below the hill at Fort Duffield, on an old meander bend of the Ohio River. Older construction is common along U.S. 31W. Where a building there has a loading dock, the leveler and dock door are looked at as one working position. A fault in either one stops the loading.
Every trailer that backs in loads the same few parts. The leveler lip has to lie flat on the trailer bed, with its hinge pins moving freely. Bumpers absorb the backing impact before the wall does. A vehicle restraint, where one is fitted, is tested for a firm hold. A dock seal or shelter that has torn at the sides is renewed. We test the dock door's photo-eyes and safety edge with the rest of the position.

Commercial service FAQ
Loading dock and industrial service questions
01 Why does our West Point dock leveler lip not lie flat?
Worn or seized hinge pins are the usual cause, so the lip lands unevenly on the trailer bed. That strains the hinge and jolts every forklift crossing. Along U.S. 31W, where older construction is common, the lip, pins and platform travel are checked as one position with the dock door.
02 Why do loading dock bumpers matter?
Bumpers absorb the backing impact before the wall does, protecting the dock face, the leveler and the seal frame. Once they wear through, every trailer strikes the building. At West Point docks, worn bumpers are replaced and any vehicle restraint is tested for a firm hold on the trailer.
03 When should a torn dock seal or shelter be replaced?
When it has torn at the sides and no longer closes around the trailer, since the gaps let weather in around the load. A torn seal is assessed apart from the leveler or restraint at that position, so only the failed part is replaced. West Point facilities get the price before work begins.
04 Do West Point dock inspections include a written summary?
Yes. You get a written summary of what was tested and found, including the leveler, restraint, bumpers, seals and the dock door's photo-eyes and safety edge. Repairs can often work around active deliveries, depending on what the repair requires.
