Crawford 680 Loadhouse 

The Crawford 680 Loadhouse is an independent loading system, containing all the relevant components: leveller, shelter and door. Together with the autodock bottom platform and an insulated or noninsulated cladding house, a complete, stand-alone dock loading system is formed. Placed outside the door opening of a warehouse or terminal, the operator will gain inside space advantages compared to a conventional, inside docking installation in new as well as in existing buildings without any major building modifications. Due to the thermal separation between building and docking unit, the Load House can be used in temperature controlled applications. The Crawford 680 Load House therefore meets most operator demands.

Same storage area, smaller building
The load house makes it possible to move the actual loading and unloading area outside the building and thereby releasing the corresponding floor area inside.

Better insulation 
The Crawford 680 Loadhouse also forms a protective barrier between building and vehicle, contributing to energy savings and an improved working environment. Dock levellers and shelters can be integrated with the load house, together forming a complete Autodock® system.
