ASSA ABLOY DB6050F Drawbridge

Economical and reliable manual docking systems for basic loading bays

Manual dock levellers and drawbridges (aka. dock plates) provide an economical, reliable solution for basic docking operations. Acting as the bridge between your facility and the bed of a docked vehicle, manually operated Levellers and Drawbridges are easy to operate by hand, coming in a variety of configurations which do not require a power supply and incur no energy costs.

ASSA ABLOY Drawbridges - DB6050F (Fixed Position Version) and DB6050MZ (Guidance Rail)

ASSA ABLOY Drawbridges are manually placed dock plates which can be used as an alternative to a Dock Leveller. ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems offer two variation of the Drawbridge system - ASSA ABLOY DB6050F (Fixed Position) and DB6050MZ (Guidance Rail). Where dock levellers cannot be accommodated, these traditional solutions can be utilised at open ramps to service vehicles of similar size, or a fleet of trailers with roughly the same design.

The ASSA ABLOY Drawbridge Leveller DB6050F (Fixed) is installed into the floor at a fixed position, whereas the ASSA ABLOY DB6050MZ is cast into a guidance rail, which runs across the front edge of a ramp or bay opening. The latter alternative makes it possible for the leveller to moved horizontally in order for it to be operated in different positions along a ramp/bay.

When not in use, a ASSA ABLOY Drawbridge can be secured in the vertical position by a safety lock. Both Fixed and Guidance Rail versions are made of steel and are equipped with a heavy-duty spring device. Spring assistance enables heavy Drawbridges to be conveniently lifted and lowered by hand.
