GLOBAL WHEEL-LOK VEHICLE RESTRAINT
Unmatched Safety
Designed to secure virtually any trailer type to the loading dock, the Global Wheel-Lok is the most simple and effective solution to help prevent early departure and trailer creep accidents at the loading dock. With a pullout force resistance higher than 142 kN the High Locking Arm for the Global Wheel-Lok surfaced mounted truck restraint is Europe’s only restraint to exceed the requirements for a FEM* class 3 vehicle restraint on empty AND full trailers, no matter the size of the tires.
How the Global Wheel-Lok Works
Features and Benefits:
Safety protection against aggressive pullouts.
- With a pullout force resistance higher than 142 kN the High Locking Arm exceeds the requirements for a FEM* class 3 vehicle restraint on empty AND full trailers, no matter the size of the tires. (*European Materials Handling Federation (FEM) Guideline for Vehicle Restraint Devices 11.005)
Versatile design
- Services the widest variety of trailers including liftgates, standard over the road with or without rear impact guards (RIGs) and intermodal container chassis
- 1140-4600mm engagement range
- Automatic Tire Sizing: sizes the tire ranging from 700-1200mm in diameter to help provide maximum restraint
- 510mm high locking arm secures virtually any trailer with a 700-1200mm tire diameter
- 380mm lower locking arm version (optional) for smaller vehicles available
Full-time communication
- Interior and exterior LED lights (flashing red and green traffic lights) with audible alarms constantly communicate restraint engagement status to interior for exterior personnel
- Interior and exterior warning signs communicate processes and procedures
Reliable, low maintenance
- Simple, reliable electro-mechanical design is surface mounted for easy installation with minimal maintenance
- Performs safely in all weather conditions
- Manual Release option unlocks the system in the event of a power failure
Enhances seal effectiveness
- Two wheel guides ensure on-centre trailer positioning to protect building wall and enhance dock seal or shelter effectiveness
- Wheel-Lok vehicle restraints can physically enhance security at a facility when linked with an active building security system
Application based options available
- Override Plate (optional): minimizes the tilting movement of the truck when driving over the locking arm
- Aluminum Override Plate for smaller vehicles (optional): allows smaller vehicles (up to 3.5t) to override the trigger device without activating the locking arm
- Mud Flap Protection Ramp (optional): designed to service trucks with mud flaps safely and efficiently
