This manually operated door mechanism allows one person to operate the doors from either side of the car—eliminating the safety risk inherent in going from one side to the other.
It’s also an incredibly flexible mechanism. Unlike other manual systems, the Lock & Load doesn’t connect to the center sill, allowing for installation on cars with or without a center sill. It can be installed on cars with standard single doors, or double doors such as those on automatic hoppers. And it can be easily converted to an automatic system with just an air cylinder, lever and control valve.
