May 13, 2008 Designed to promote safety and productivity, Z-Deck(TM) Truck Leveler provides full-width access to virtually any load by raising trailer to appropriate dock height for loading/unloading. Trailers can be serviced at or above dock height due to Z-shaped deck design that helps minimize slope of lifting surface.
