Springless Solutions

Less Downtime - Consistent Operation – Reduced Liability

What is a Springless Sectional or Dock Door Solution?​
Balance is key for dock doors, or any sectional door, to perform properly and safely.  Traditionally, this is accomplished with springs – which have a limited life and additional service costs. The solution to this problem is a Springless Counterbalance Conversion in which a counterbalance or counterweight is engineered to balance the door without the headaches of traditional door springs.

Benefits of a springless counterbalance conversion
  • Consistent operation
  • Lowest lifetime cost of ownership
  • Functions with or without powered motor operators or chain hoists
  • Reduced liability
  • Reduced downtime, no more broken springs
  • Can be outfitted on new or in-service doors
  • 100,000 cycle or 5-year warranty

Why invest in a Springless Counterbalance Conversion? 
Considering the life of the door is critical when comparing pricing. While the upfront cost to upgrade to a springless solution will be greater than the cost to replace springs, the operating and ownership costs are minimal long-term.

Why Choose A Springless Hydraulic Dock Leveler?
Typically, mechanical levelers with springs, levers, ratchet bars, brakes and holdowns require frequent service and costly repairs. A Springless Hydraulic Dock Leveler Conversion removes the need for the operator to manually use a pull-chain. Instead, the operator uses a control or a button to raise and lower the leveler.
 
Simply put it is a dock leveler with springs, levers, ratchet bars, brakes and holdowns. All terms you are familiar with if you have had to service or pay the bill for costly repairs common with mechanical levelers. With lead times and the struggle to acquire parts upgrading in hydraulic conversion makes great business sense.

Benefits of A Springless Hydraulic Dock Leveler Conversion:
  • Increased Structural stability
  • Increased Efficiency
  • Simple Push Button Operation
  • Ergonomic operation
  • Integral safety features
  • Allow leveler to operate with full-service range
  • Eliminate problematic pull chains
  • Consistent operation
  • Reduced liability
  • Reduced downtime
​
Why invest in a Springless Hydraulic Dock Leveler Conversion?
​Considering component quality, ease of use, and potential safety issues is imperative in comparing cost. While the upfront cost may be higher than repairs, the lifetime operating and ownership costs are minimal.
