ABOUT

TRUCK & DOCK RESTRAINTS

Truck & dock restraints are an important mechanism for ensuring trailers are securely fastened to your facility during loading and unloading. We’re proud to offer sales, service & maintenance on all types of truck & dock restraints across Canada.

What is the benefit of using truck or dock restraints?

Truck & dock restraints help with two main issues in the loading dock area: trailer creep & early departure.

Trailer creep occurs when a truck slowly moves away from the loading dock as a result of traffic in and out of the truck. It can often be a very gradual process that is easy to miss in a busy, time-sensitive environment.

Early departure is a simple human error wherein the driver exits the dock area too soon. This can lead to loss of product, damage to the truck and/or dock and potentially even injure employees. Both of these serious issues (and others) can be avoided with the simple installation of truck restraints that secure the truck to the dock leveller during the loading & unloading process.

To learn more about how truck and dock restraints can prevent these issues, see our article on 4 Ways Truck Restraints Can Prevent Injury & Damage.

With a high visibility hook style restraint arm, it is the ideal solution for keeping workers, equipment, and cargo safer during loading and unloading. It is also a cost-effective alternative to hydraulic truck restraints, as its rugged design makes it virtually maintenance-free – with the ability to function in the harshest environments. The unique rotating hook engages over the impact guard using a restraining force of 32,000 lbs (14,514 kgs). You can rely on the dependability Lenworth Electric Hook Truck Restraint and worry less about the direct and indirect costs of an industrial accident.

    Durable in All Weather Conditions

    Lenworth’s Electric Hook Truck Restraint is mounted above ground to avoid debris, dirt, snow and ice, and the DC gear motor (IP-44 rated) protects against these as well.

    Features & Benefits

    The restraint features all electronic mechanics- including position sensors- which eliminates the maintenance that is often required on mechanical limit switches. It is also environmentally friendly, because it is a sustainable alternative to hydraulic systems. Most importantly, this truck restraint prevents all 4 types of loading dock separation accidents, whereas non-impact truck restraints only address 2.

    Reduces Cost

    The electric hook restraint features low power consumption, which saves on energy costs, and the zinc dichromate plate finish prevents premature rusting so the restraint lasts as long as possible.
