Loading Dock Design – Part 2

Improper design and planning of your dock facilities can lead to expensive, time-consuming and serious safety issues. The fact is, trailers can move dangerously and unexpectedly, exposing your company to great risk and cost. So when choosing a vehicle restraint the questions to consider are:

• What types of trailers do you use?
• Do you have a captive fleet?
• Is your dock approach level or sloped?
• How heavy are your loads?

Vehicle restraints provide the highest level of security through full-time communication to the dock personnel and truck drivers as well as safe and secure attachment to the dock. Clear, concise communication is critical to safety at the loading dock.

• Only Rite-Hite restraints offer full-time communication with Corner-Vu and Leveler-Vu – which is crucial to loading dock safety
• Dok-Lok restraints are designed to “win” if challenged and withstand the loading dock environment
• Dok-Loks help prevent all types of trailer separation accidents
• Rite-Hite has a restraint to fit every application and budget
