Kelley aFXDockleveler

It's the original Kelley air-powered dockleveler that revolutionized the industry. In addition to delivering safe, powered performance at a cost comparable to mechanical docklevelers, the aFX features airDefenseTM — Kelley's proprietary stump-out and free fall protection system. The aFX is also backed by the strongest warranty in the industry, with a lifetime lip hinge assembly warranty, 10-year structural warranty, and a 5-year warranty on the lifting system. All of which makes it the preferred choice of warehousing operations worldwide.
