Over the past 27 years we have developed one of the easiest ways to remove your dock for winter storage. The aluminum truss design provides ample strength to allow the entire frame assembly to lift up. As winter rolls around, simply lift off your decking in 2’ sections, hook up the winch cable to the folding gantry and crank up your dock. Your lift-up dock is attached to the shoreline by a hinged base plate. The winch assembly can be mounted in your lawn using a removable stand so that it is out of the way for the summer months. The gantry is lowered into the dock frame so that it is hidden from view once the decking has been put back on. Like our standard pipe docks our lift docks feature 2-3/8” O.D leg and heavy duty side extrusions. additional X-bracing and corner gussets allow us to span up to 48’ in length. Our lift-up pipe docks can operate in water up to 15’ deep, and they can be designed to go straight out from shore, in a “T”, “L” or “U” shape, or run parallel to shore. We invite you to compare the quality of our docks with that of any of our competitors. |

Realizing the need for a lift dock in areas where ice movement can cause damage, we have developed this style of dock. A deck style platform hinges to your land back away from your shore. A set of steps allows you to access your lower docking area. The entire dock, steps and upper deck area cranks up for winter. This allows the ice to pile up at your shore and reduce the risk of any damage to your dock. The Lift Up Step Dock is also great in situations where there is a significant height difference between your shoreline and water level. By starting out with a higher platform and then stepping down it allows you to get to a level appropriate for swimming or boating. A fold down gantry is completely hidden in the summer months. Each dock is custom built for your particular shoreline. Available in straight, “T” end or “U” or “L” formation. All of these docks use the same truss design frame as our standard lift docks. The legs are all 2-3/8″ O.D. for extra rigidity. |
