Approaches & Loading Docks FAQ
Common questions about approaches & loading docks in Charlotte, NC.
How thick does a loading-dock apron need to be?
8 inches minimum for standard tractor-trailer docks. 10+ inches for high-frequency distribution facilities with constant trailer movement. Under-spec aprons fail at the dock face within a year.
Can you coordinate with the dock leveler contractor?
Yes. We regularly work alongside dock-leveler installers on new-build and retrofit projects — set the concrete first with proper embed points, then the leveler goes in cleanly.
Do you pour truck approaches too?
Yes — the transition from asphalt or existing concrete at a dock entrance is one of the highest-wear surfaces on any commercial property. We pour approach aprons to match the dock spec.
