Ensuring Loading Bay Safety At All times

Keeping you and those close to you safe....

We take great measures to keep our loved ones safe. When travelling, we place our children in child seats and at home, we lock the front door and kitchen drawers. But our colleagues need to be protected from safety hazards too.

The loading bay undoubtedly remains the most dangerous part of any warehouse, with premature vehicle drive-off and creeping being the cause of countless accidents, injuries and even fatalities. 

At Loading Systems, we take care of these safety risks with our vehicle restraint systems. These systems are specially developed to keep a parked vehicle safely in place and prevent premature vehicle drive-off and creeping, to ensure the safety of your colleagues at all times.

Work accidents result in many fatal injuries each year.

Our Vehicle Restraint Systems

Automatic Vehicle Restraint

Prevent premature drive-off and creeping

By blocking the rear wheel, unplanned movement of the docked vehicle is prevented. The constant hydraulic restraining force of the restraint system even prevents vehicle creep, caused by momentum incurred during loading and unloading.

Full control – integrated system with automatic sequence control

With the automatic sequence control, a safe operating sequence is ensured, fully integrated with all other loading bay products. Dock levellers and/or dock doors cannot be operated before the vehicle is restrained and the vehicle will not be released until these are safely back in rest position and closed again.

No vehicle damage – retractable blocking arm with precision sensor

The blocking arm is fully retracted when not activated, preventing any damage to truck wheels, tail lifts or mud flaps. After activation, the precision sensor detects the rear wheel, positions the blocking arm in place and restraints the wheel.

No equipment damage – fully galvanised with integrated wheel guide

The fully galvanised system with integrated wheel guide ensures the vehicle is always positioned in the centre and prevents damage to the equipment and vehicle. 

Suitable for both new and existing buildings – minimal building preparation

Installation in both existing and new buildings is no problem, as the restraint system requires minimal building preparation.

Manual Vehicle Restraint

The complete range of Loading Systems vehicle restraint solutions also includes the 503NG manual restraint system, as an alternative. It offers the same unique features, except that the blocking arm is operated manually.

Full control – integrated system with automatic sequence control

The manual system can also be fully integrated with all other loading bay products ensuring a safe operating sequence with the automatic sequence control. Dock levellers and/or dock doors cannot be operated before the vehicle is restrained and the vehicle will not be released until these are safely back in rest position and closed again.

Easy release – blocking arm first moves free from wheel

The unique release feature of the 503NG solves a common limitation of other manual vehicle restraint systems, that are difficult to unlock manually due to the high wheel pressure on the blocking arm, by automatically moving the blocking arm free from the wheel upon release.

Do not just take our word for it...

Bonduelle installed 10 automatic vehicle restraint systems (505NG) for the outgoing goods, in Mons (France). This improves the safety of transporters of the canned goods.
