  Vision and Safety At The Loading Dock  
     
  Rite-Vu

What triggers pedestrian and forklift accidents?

  • Pedestrians can’t tell if a forklift is inside a trailer
  • Forklift drivers have restricted views of pedestrians, especially when exiting a trailer
  • Forklift drivers don’t know if the trailer is secured with a Dok-Lok
  • Forklift drivers have impaired views of control box signals

Rite-Hite’s Rite-Vu™ Light Communication System is the clear visual solution to your loading dock safety needs.

  • Pedestrian-Vu lights turn to amber to tell both pedestrians and forklift drivers that a forklift is currently in the trailer
  • Corner –Vu and Leveler-Vu lights turn green when a trailer is secured with a Dok-Lok and it is safe for a forklift to enter and exit
  • Corner-Vu and Leveler-Vu lights are red when a trailer is not secured and a forklift should not enter or exit because the Dok-Lok is no longer securing the trailer.
 
 

The Rite-Vu system is the ideal solution to communicating to your loading dock personnel.  For more details on each component, visit our website or contact your local representative.

 
     
  Finally – Dock Seals that Hold Up Over Time  
     
  Dock Seals

Problem: Foam compression dock seals create a tight, effective environmental seal at the dock, but are susceptible to extreme damage at high-use docks. Maintenance and repair is costly, docks look unsightly, and sealing efficiency diminishes.

Solution: Frommelt’s new Platinum™ Series and Insulator™ II High Performance Dock Seals hold up when other dock seals fail. Exclusive, innovative design features and state-of-the-art materials ensure long-term durability, extend product life, and ensure easy, low-cost maintenance. The pivoting High Performance head pad resists damage in the harshest conditions, including when yard jockeys are in use. Friction-resistant Durathon™ fabric eliminates the need for wear pleats. The new High Performance head curtain features

 
 

an impactable damage-resistant frame, plus the curtain's self-locking pressure edge vastly improves the seal on top of the trailer. Firefighter™ heat-dissipation technology inside the headers prevents burning from the built-up heat of trailer marker lights. And Velcro-attached corner wear boots and head curtain makes maintenance and upgrades quick, easy and low-cost
