A Wildeck® Mechanical Modular Box Lift is designed to quickly move parts, totes, boxes or carriers to another level, such as a mezzanine, storage rack or deck. It is designed to eliminate multiple trips up and down stairs, accomplished with the push of a button.
The stackable, self-contained modular design exemplifies and assists shipping and assembly areas. Interlocking gates, call/send control stations, and safety enclosures are preassembled and prewired at the factory to reduce installation time.

Operations & Controls
Safety Gates
Carriage Safety Options:
Wildeck VRC's have a standard carriage freefall device. Optional safety carriage locking devices are available to prevent the accidental descent of a raised carriage. When the VRC arrives at an upper level stop, the system locks the carriage enclosure either through automatic (SafeLock™) or manual (DeckStop™) means.
- SafeLock™: Automatic; failsafe, the carriage locks automatically when arriving at the
designated level.
- DeckStop™: Manual; simple, and reliable. Locking arms provide a highly visible barrier at the loading area.
Additional Safety Options Include:
- CargoLok™ Carriage Gate— Encloses and secures large rolling loads
- ArmorCar™ Carriage — A fully-enclosed VRC carriage for additional freight safeguarding
Heavy Duty Landing Level Gates – Used for heavy duty applications or applications prone to impact during load
