www.ritehite.com Rite-Hite Company Profile
The Rite-Hite Trailer Lift (RHTL) helps raise a wide array of vehicles to proper dock height, while simultaneously leveling the trailer bed to help protect the cargo and make forklift loading/unloading more efficient and ergonomic. Designed for use in automotive and other industries where heavy, cubed loads are common, the RHTL features a reinforced platform and larger hydraulic cylinders for increased lift. Its four-panel design allows for gentle inclines and declines of the deck surface to help keep the trailer bed level when raised.
It has multiple safety features, including dual maintenance props for safe cleaning and maintenance; abrasive deck paint for a non-slip surface; rear tire run-off; and debris guards running the length of the lift. A manual release lowering valve can quickly lower the lift in the event of power outage. The RHTL is compatible with Rite-Hite’s SHR-5000 Dok-Lok restraint, whose unique “shadow hook” design provides the widest working range of any restraint, allowing safe engagement with almost any type of truck or trailer. It can be interlocked with other dock equipment and programmed to operate only in a safe sequence through the Rite-Hite® Dok-Commander® control system and boasts an industry leading warranty with a nationwide service network.
The Rite-Hite Trailer Lift (RHTL) features several technological enhancements that help make it even more safe, reliable, and efficient. Its upgraded hydraulic cylinders give it an additional 2 inches of lifting height compared to competitive models. The cylinder towers have been upgraded, as well. They now feature a deflection technology design that helps protect it from impact by backing trailers, guiding it to center at the dock. Other features include a reinforced deck for additional strength; dual maintenance rear props for added safety during routine cleaning and maintenance; a traction-enhancing diamond plate tread with abrasive, non-slip paint; integral wheel guides at the front of the lift on the drive approach to ensure accurate dock positioning; and debris guards that run the full length and height of the trailer lift. For additional safety, the RHTL can be integrated with Rite-Hite’s SHR-5000 Dok-Lok (shadow hook) restraint. The SHR-5000 provides the greatest reach and widest working range of any restraint on the market, allowing it to maintain safe engagement with almost any type of truck or trailer to help prevent trailer separation accidents. In addition, the RHTL’s manual release lowering valve can quickly lower the lift in the event of a power outage.
