The smoothest transition from the truck bed to the loading dock
NORDOCK Model NMF Mechanical FLEX-LIP™ dock levelers are recognized as the industries premier mechanical leveler. In addition to all the standard performance features it also includes our exclusive walk-down lip extension, center position dual pawl holdown for level storage and our unique system, that does not allow lip deployment beyond the bumpers that can leave flip lip style levelers vulnerable to impact from incoming trailers.
Patented proven lip technology
The patented FLEX-LIP™ lip design extends automatically as the leveler is walked down and maintains the lip horizontally in all positions of the platform, even in below dock loading operations.
The risk of grounding low clearance pallet trucks and forklifts while loading and unloading is significantly reduced and excessive forklift tire wear, especially in below dock loading operations, is minimized. Personnel injury, caused by whole body vibration, is also significantly reduced, saving on injury claims and employee absence.
 When the lip angle is too great, it can result in low clearance vehicles, such as electric pallet trucks impacting the lip or the trailer bed damaging equipment and impeding loading operations.
 Low clearance pallet trucks can impact the crown angle, especially in below dock loading operations, resulting in damage to fragile goods and increased wear and tear on the lift truck substantially reducing maintenance, product loss costs and leveler structural fatigue.
 Personnel injury cased by whole body vibration is significantly reduced saving on injury claims and employee absence.
