Loading Dock Trailer Restraints
Loading Dock Trailer Restraints
Model VR
Trailer restraints are designed to secure trailers at the loading dock and reduce the risk of premature departure, trailer movement, and dock‑related accidents during loading and unloading operations. Overhead Door™ trailer restraint systems use a high‑visibility, rotating hook‑style design that engages the trailer’s rear impact guard to hold the vehicle firmly in position while dock activity is underway. Clear inside and outside communication lights provide visual confirmation of restraint status to both dock personnel and drivers, supporting safer, more coordinated dock operations.
