History
Rite-Hite first rose to prominence as a manufacturer of loading dock equipment, including dock levelers and vehicle restraint systems. One of the early breakthroughs was the development of the DOK-LOK® trailer restraint in 1980, a proprietary design that effectively prevents trailer separation and quickly gained widespread adoption worldwide.
​
In 1987, Rite-Hite established Arbon Equipment Corporation, a subsidiary comprising over 700 dedicated employees serving customers in the United States, Canada, and Australia. Arbon offers expert consultation on a wide range of products and services, catering to customers with varying dock requirements, from single installations to large-scale operations.
​
In 1991, Rite-Hite acquired Frommelt Industries, significantly broadening its offering to include industrial power doors, cold storage doors, impact doors, dock seals and shelters, and a full complement of aftermarket products.
​
Rite-Hite’s longstanding reputation for safety, quality and innovation has been enhanced through the constant introduction of unique products for the industrial facility. At the loading dock, Rite-Hite has pioneered advancements such as the hydraulic dock leveler with Safe-T-Lip®; the Global Wheel-Lok™ wheel restraint; the Dok-Guardian™; and the Eclipse™ loading dock shelter. Inside the facility, Rite-Hite offers include the FasTrax® and LiteSpeed® high speed doors; the Revolution® HVLS industrial fan, ZoneWorks® Industrial Curtain Walls, In-Plant Safety Barriers, and the Safe-T-Signal®. Rite-Hite has also expanded its portfolio to include Loading Dock and Yard Management Software, Scraper System™ Fleet Plows snow removal machines, and most recently, Automation Solutions at the loading dock.
​
An additional company that is part of the Rite-Hite family is DuctSox. DuctSox is a manufacturer of commercial and industrial fabric ductwork and diffuser systems for open/finished ceiling architecture, critical environments, and underfloor applications. DuctSox fabric systems are a cost effective, aesthetically attractive alternative to metal ductwork and diffusers. DuctSox is based in Dubuque, Iowa.
Many forklift operators travel across conventional dock levelers more than 100,000 times each year. With each pass they experience an unpleasant jarring effect created by the bumps and gaps that exist in outdated leveler designs – so does their equipment and the product being transported.
Also known as dock shock or whole-body vibration, these vibrations can lead to chronic back and neck injuries, product spills, and equipment repair costs.
These conditions can be reduced or eliminated with a Smooth Transition dock leveler design – all of which are ANSI MH30.1 tested and certified.
​
Our standard features help:
-
Provide a smooth transition for forklifts from the warehouse floor to trailer beds – even on out-of-balance trailers – with a constant radius rear hinge, two-point crown control, and an optimized lip chamfer.
-
Defend against vacant dock drop-off accidents and facilitate unobstructed end loading with our exclusive Safe-T-Lip® (not available on the RH mechanical or vertical levelers)
-
Protect personnel during inspection and pit clean out with our exclusive Safe-T-Strut® featuring lockout/tagout capability.
-
Offer flexibility for use of 3 and 4-wheel forklifts with unique structural engineering
Choosing a smooth transition dock leveler results in fewer employee injuries, less product and equipment damage, and low lifetime ownership costs. Our designs are always evolving to meet the challenges you face at the loading dock.

HIGH SPEED DOORS
Achieve maximum environmental control and separation at the door opening with Rite-Hite High Speed Doors. The main function of a high speed door is to act as a barrier. High speed doors protect us from harm, save energy and help us to separate processes for optimal productivity. A high speed door's most important job is to simply open and close quickly and safely every time you need it.
Rite-Hite's revolutionary line of high speed doors is designed with these efficiencies in mind to bring your workflow to its high potential. Known for high speed, low maintenance, and maximum uptime, Rite-Hite doors offer the industry's widest range of solutions to fit your every need.
Rite-Hite has a large collection of high performance, high speed door solutions in roll-up and bi-parting designs, available in versatile track configurations. Capable of moving at 100 inches per second, the cycle times of Rite-Hite doors maximize energy savings by minimizing the amount of air exchange that can escape each time the doors open and close. Unlike traditional hard bi-parting doors, flexible FasTrax and LiteSpeed roll-up doors have the ability to withstand forklift impact and snap right back into their tracks. This is a huge benefit in a warehouse space, where damaged doors can mean significant expenses in terms of downtime and service calls, as well as energy loss.
