Vestil FM-2572 Mechanical Edge-O-Dock Leveler, 72 Inch Usable Width, 25,000 lb Capacity, Non-Slip Tread Plate

When your dock sees heavier loads and higher-capacity forklifts, a standard edge-of-dock may not cut it. The Vestil FM-2572 Mechanical Edge-O-Dock Leveler delivers a stronger, high-capacity dock-to-trailer bridge while keeping installation simple and cost-effective. It permanently mounts on the face of the dock and delivers reliable performance without powered components.

The operation is quick and consistent. Place the actuation handle into the pocket of the inner lip, pull down toward the floor, then push forward until the lip rests on the truck bed. When the trailer departs, the lip retracts automatically behind the bumper face. The tread plate surface provides a positive, non-slip grip, and the design does not require a concrete recess, helping reduce installation time and disruption. Built from solid steel and supplied with dock bumpers, the FM-2572 is made for hard daily use.
