Dock Levelers

• Standard widths up to 120" and up to 30,000lb capacity 
• Low maintenance
• Safe Handling - Safety chains and brackets included to prevent loading dock ramps from sliding
• 7" safety curb to prevent runoff during loading process

These are not permanent structures like concrete ramps you can adjust which dock door you choose to have ramp access to.

• Standard width of 70"/84"/96" and up to 30,000lb capacity

Mobile dock ramps for easy access from your parking lot into the back of truck/trailer

• For easy transitions between loading/unloading applications.
• Engineered plates to maximize efficiency by allowing heavy equipment to operate into a freight bed or box truck.

Portable dock stations to create a dock platform for your certain applications. This combines well with ramps or dock boards/railboards/plates to ensure extra room and efficiency for all your loading applications.

• Stage Ramps (pedestrian)
• Van Ramps (pedestrian with applications to support manual loading/unloading)
• Walkboards
• Twin Lock / Split Ramps - Example: Vehicle loading/unloading to back of trailer/box vehicle. *Light duty up to 6,000lb *Heavy duty up to 7,500 lb 

• Prevent Accidents: Primarily designed to prevent accidents caused by truck movement. This includes: 
  • "Dock Walks": The truck slowly creeping away from the dock due to loading/unloading momentum, creating a dangerous gap. 
  • Early Departure: The truck driver accidentally or intentionally pulling away before the loading/unloading process is complete. 
  • Trailer Pop-Up or Up-Ending: The trailer tipping upward due to uneven loading or shifting cargo.
• Improve Safety for Workers: Protects workers on the dock and inside the truck from injuries caused by sudden truck movement. 
• Prevent Cargo Damage: Minimizes the risk of damage to cargo during loading and unloading. 

How it Works:

• Engaging the Restraint: The restraint mechanism (usually a hook or barrier) physically connects to the truck's rear impact guard (RIG). This prevents the truck from moving away from the dock. 
• Types of Restraints: 
  • Mechanical: Manually operated by the dock worker. 
  • Powered: Operated using hydraulics or electric motors for easier engagement and disengagement. 
• Communication Systems: Many restraints include light signals (red/green) to communicate the status of the restraint (engaged/disengaged) between the dock worker and the truck driver. 

Benefits of Using Truck Restraints:

• Enhanced Safety: Significantly reduces the risk of accidents and injuries. 
• Increased Productivity: Prevents delays caused by accidents or the need to reposition the truck. 
• Reduced Cargo Damage: Protects valuable cargo from damage during loading/unloading. 
• Improved Worker Morale: Creates a safer working environment for dock workers.

By using truck restraints, businesses can create a safer and more efficient loading dock environment, minimizing the risk of accidents and improving overall safety.
