FAQ – Lifting Blocks & Risers
When should you use a height block?
Height blocks are particularly useful when the rear of a truck is significantly below the loading dock level, making loading impossible. They allow you to adjust the vehicle's height for more direct access to the loading dock floor.
What is the difference between a MAUS riser and a height block?
MAUS risers act as more general height adjustment elements (a fully customizable system), while height blocks are specifically designed to raise the rear of a vehicle to equalize the levels between the loading dock and the loading dock floor.
Are height blocks suitable for heavy goods vehicles?
The height blocks available in this category have high unit capacities (e.g., up to 6,000 kg), making them suitable for heavy goods vehicles.
