AccuDock® manufacturers all gangways and ramps in house using 6000 Series Marine grade aluminum. Each gangway and ramp is built to specification based on customer and application requirements including ADA specifications when required. All AccuDock® Gangways and Ramps are welded by AWS (American Welding Society) certified welders ensuring the utmost in quality and functionality and can accommodate varying live load requirements dependent upon the application. The surface texture of AccuDock® aluminum gangways and ramps is ribbed and knurled to provide additional traction. Various decking materials are also available upon request. AccuDock often uses additional floatation support for installs with hinge attachments. The additional support alleviates the possibility of the leading edge of the dock having to support the full weight of the gangway; which allows the dock to sit level with the water despite changes in water level. AccuDock® transition plates are all made of a quarter inch 6000 series marine grade aluminum and diamond plated to provide additional traction. Transition plates are often used for installs that require the use of rollers and prevent the possibility of a trip hazard caused by the 6-inch difference in height between the gangway and dock. Certain AccuDock installs may require the addition of rollers depending on the attachment method. Rollers are often the best solution for installs with piling, spud bracket or slide more assemblies allowing the gangway to roll along the top of the dock with fluctuating water levels.
