Loading Dock Light Kit (LDLK)
The Loading Dock Light Kit (LDLK) is a lighting system that activates when a tractor-trailer truck locks onto a warehouse dock. This life‐safety innovation helps prevent forklifts from falling off docks or departing trucks.
Upon locking, the outside LEDs facing the truck turn flashing-red, indicating he cannot leave. Conversely, the LEDs inside the warehouse turn green, indicating the forklifts are free to enter the restrained truck. If the dock's door leaves fully-open status while the lock is engaged (dock door is creeping down), the LEDs will flash red, indicating danger of forklifts hitting the door.
If the docking truck lacks a functional lock-bar and the truck restraint enters a lock-fail state, the LEDs will flash amber, indicating danger (manually chock wheels).
Benefits Include:
-
Increased safety for drivers and warehouse employees
-
Minimal cost compared to repair and injury costs
-
Visual signals are much more effective in high-noise environments than audible alarms.
