Crawford 680 Loadhouse
Heavy duty stand alone 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 non insulated 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 Loadhouse is the heavy duty version of
the new generation of load houses, especially developed
to meet all requirements of architects, builders and
operators. It is suitable for all geographical areas with
snow load up to 2,0 kN/m² and our static calculations are
certified by a third party. The Crawford 680 Loadhouse
is the safe and reliable choice including ideal support for
the construction planning and building
permission process.

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.
Cheaper construction
As there is no need for complicated concrete pit
construction the total cost of the building
is reduced.
