Dock Restraints

Manual vehicle restraints are a cost-effective option that requires dock personnel to manually secure the restraint onto the trailer’s rear impact guard (RIG). These systems are suited for low to moderate-traffic docks where automation isn’t required, but safety is still a priority.

Automatic vehicle restraints use powered mechanisms to automatically secure trailers to the dock, providing enhanced safety and efficiency. These systems are ideal for high-traffic operations that require rapid, hands-free engagement, ensuring quicker turnarounds while reducing the risk of human error.

Impact vehicle restraints are designed to secure trailers by locking onto the RIG through impact force as the truck backs into the dock. This type of restraint offers a durable and robust solution for heavy-duty applications where consistent safety and operational efficiency are needed.

Recessed vehicle restraints are installed flush with the dock face and provide an unobtrusive, low-profile solution. They engage the trailer’s RIG when needed but remain hidden when not in use, making them perfect for facilities looking for a clean appearance and maximum dock space utilization.

Automatic in-ground wheel chocks are installed beneath the surface and engage automatically when a truck is in position. These systems are excellent for environments that handle a wide variety of vehicle types and require automatic solutions to minimize manual labor and improve workflow efficiency.

Above-ground wheel chocks provide a flexible, automatic solution by securing a truck’s wheels from above. These systems are ideal for facilities that need quick, automated engagement without modifications to the dock floor. They are particularly useful for operations handling varying truck sizes.

Manual above-ground wheel chocks are a straightforward solution for securing a trailer’s wheels manually. They are suited for lower-volume docks or facilities that don’t require automation but still need a reliable safety measure to prevent trailer movement.

Hand chocks are the simplest and most cost-effective form of trailer restraint. These devices are manually placed under the trailer’s wheels to prevent movement. They are typically used in low-traffic areas or as a backup safety solution in conjunction with more automated systems.
