Our technicians arrive with the tools, parts, and technical expertise to resolve most dock leveller issues on the first visit.
The answer depends on the system’s age, the nature of the problem, and repair cost relative to replacement. For most hydraulic dock leveller repair issues such as leaking hoses, worn oil seals, contaminated hydraulic fluid, or airlocks in the pump system, targeted repair is the more cost-effective path. Our certified technicians diagnose the root cause using dial indicators and DC ammeters before making any recommendation.
When repair costs approach or exceed the cost of replacement, particularly on older systems with multiple mechanical dock leveller repair requirements across the deck plate, hinge unit, and hydraulic cylinders, replacement is the more practical investment. Our certified technicians provide an honest assessment of whether loading dock repair or system replacement is the right path for your facility.
The deck plate is rising unevenly or failing to hold its position under load
Hydraulic fluid is leaking from hoses, cylinders, or around the pump unit
The lip assembly is not extending or retracting correctly
Safety legs or interlock systems are failing to engage
The hinge unit or pit frame shows visible cracking, bending, or corrosion
Electrical controls or control buttons are unresponsive
The dock leveller is making unusual grinding, clicking, or popping sounds
Frayed cables or damaged electrical connections are visible on the system
The lip is cracked, deformed, or no longer bridging the gap to the trailer correctly
Emergency dock leveller repair is needed; the system has stopped functioning during operations
Canadoor Garage Doors technicians service all major makes and models of commercial loading dock levellers, covering both hydraulic and mechanical systems. Hydraulic dock levellers use piston, gear, or vane pumps to raise and lower the deck plate using pressurised hydraulic fluid. Common hydraulic repair issues include oil seal wear, hose damage, bolt gap leakages, hydraulic fluid contamination, and airlock formation in the pump system.
Our preventative maintenance programs include full inspection of the pit frame, hinge unit, lip assembly, deck plate, hydraulic pump, cylinders, and safety legs and interlock systems. We lubricate moving parts at least twice a year using silicone-based lubricants for rubber components and lithium-based grease for metal parts, and recommend cleaning the system at least monthly to prevent debris buildup that accelerates component wear.
Before any repair or service work begins, our technicians carry out a thorough inspection of the dock leveller system to identify issues and assess the condition of all key components. This includes:
