Dock houses are complete loading dock units combining a dock leveller and a dock shelter. They are designed for loading and unloading operations in warehouses, logistics centres and other industrial facilities.
Installed outside the building, dock houses can replace conventional concrete structures for dock levellers, helping to reduce construction costs. They also provide improved building closure during loading and unloading operations, contributing to reduced heat loss.
Dock houses can be supplied as individual units or arranged side by side to create multiple loading bays. Depending on the available space, a sawtooth arrangement can also be used to optimise the layout of the loading area.
A dock house is a self-contained loading dock unit incorporating a dock leveller and a dock shelter.
Positioning the dock house outside the building makes it possible to create a loading bay without constructing a conventional concrete dock leveller pit.
The design also helps improve building closure during loading and unloading operations, reducing heat loss.
Dock houses are available in different configurations to suit the requirements of individual facilities.
Individual Dock Houses
Each dock house forms a separate loading bay.
Multiple Dock Houses
Several dock houses can be installed side by side to create a series of loading bays.
Sawtooth Arrangement
Where space is limited, dock houses can be installed in a sawtooth arrangement, with individual loading bays positioned at an angle to the building façade.
This configuration allows more efficient use of the available loading area.
