Overview
Dock-Rite Truck Guides are ground-fixed steel guides installed in front of loading bays to assist truck drivers in reversing accurately and docking directly in front of the bay. They act as both a visual and physical guide.
✓ Reduces dock approach time — less reversing required
✓ Prevents angled docking that causes seal damage and gaps
✓ Physical and visual guide — visible from truck cab
✓ Fixed to floor using sleeve anchors — no welding required
✓ Available painted or hot dip galvanized
✓ Custom sizes and formats available on request
✓ Reduces damage to dock seals and shelters from mis-docking
✓ Heavy-tube construction: 152mm O/D × 6mm wall
Typical Applications
- All loading bay installations (recommended as standard)
- Sites with limited yard space for manoeuvring
- Docks where seal damage from mis-docking is an issue
- High-throughput facilities where docking speed matters
- Sites with tight dock centres
- Night-operation facilities with reduced lighting
- New dock installations and retrofit applications
- Any facility concerned about dock infrastructure damage
