FAQ’s
Which dock equipment is best for my facility?
Choosing the best dock equipment for your facility depends a lot on how you operate: what kinds of trucks you handle, how many docks you have, how frequently you load/unload, environmental conditions, what safety requirements you must meet, and what your budget is.
Can McGuire equipment integrate with Overhead Door™ sectional doors?
Yes, McGuire dock equipment can be integrated with Overhead Door™ sectional doors, as we offer both products together for dock solutions. Successful integration depends on ensuring proper alignment of height and width, maintaining clearances between door hardware and dock components, and confirming that seals and shelters work without interfering with door operation. For automated systems, controls may need coordination so the door, leveler, and restraints operate safely together. As long as installation follows manufacturer specifications and accounts for load requirements, clearances, and safety standards, McGuire equipment and Overhead Door™ sectional doors can work seamlessly in the same facility.
How often should dock levelers be serviced?
Dock levelers should generally be serviced at least once or twice a year, depending on how heavily they are used. Facilities with high traffic or continuous operations may need quarterly or even monthly inspections to ensure safety and performance. Regular servicing typically includes checking hydraulic or mechanical systems, lubricating moving parts, inspecting welds and structural components, adjusting springs or cylinders, and ensuring safety features and controls work properly. Performing daily or weekly visual checks for damage, leaks, or unusual operation is also recommended so small issues can be fixed before they turn into costly repairs. Consistent maintenance not only extends the lifespan of the dock leveler but also improves safety and reduces downtime.
