The 3 in 1 Protector: the Door & Dock Guard Advantage

The Door & Dock Guard:
Advantage Blue Giant


The raised guard is designed to prevent forklift roll-off when the overhead door is open and no truck is present and to protect overhead doors and tracks from regular impact damage.

Acts as a pallet stop to guard door panels and tracks from regular impact when the overhead door is closed.

The Blue Giant XDS Series offers a superior alternative with many more advantages over traditional lip barrier dock levelers. Before you consider a dock leveler with a safety barrier, be well informed and ask questions before making your decision. The XDS, what you want, where you want it, when you need it most.

Considering a dock leveler with a Lip Barrier:
Disadvantage Others


•– Is the barrier at the outside edge of the dock? Is there no margin for safety to prevent falling off the loading dock to the abyss of the loading dock drive?

•– Does the roll-off barrier protect the overhead door when in a closed position?

•– Can the roll-off barrier (lip) impede materials handling at cross-traffic position (end -loading)? Is there smooth transition for small sheels?

•– If the roll-off barrier (lip) is damaged what is required to bring the dock leveler back to service? How long will that take? What is the down time cost to the client?

•– What is the lip replacement cost? Is it $1,000, $2,000 or even $5,000? More? Request a formal quote for repair.
