The innovative single light shows a flashing Red X and a Green O to enhance safety and efficiency. The enhanced dock alert light communication provides a reliable warning system that establishes a clear line of communication between truck drivers and dock personnel, thereby reducing the risk of accidents at the loading dock.
McGuire’s Dock Alert can be purchased utilizing either manual or automatic activation. The Dock Alert can be integrated into a single control enclosure with your hydraulic or air-operated leveler and optional interconnections can ensure proper sequence of operation enhancing safety and efficiency at the loading dock.
Edge Lights
A light communication system is an important safety component to have at any loading dock. You can enhance this communication by adding the Edge Lights to the interior wall above the dock door.
Edge Lights flash either red or green and are an added level of safety that becomes visibly clear to any dock worker when it’s safe or not to enter the trailer.
Integrate these Edge Lights with any vehicle restraint controls for an automated level of communication to ensure that a safe loading process takes place.
iDock Alert Light Communication System
Loading Dock Communication and Controls
The iDock Alert Light Communication System is an enhanced version of McGuire’s simple Dock Alert and provides a reliable warning system that establishes a clear line of communication between truck drivers and dock personnel, thereby reducing the risk of accidents at the loading dock.
As a truck approaches the dock, exterior lights will flash green while interior lights are red. Once the truck is in position, the dock attendant will open the overhead door, secure the trailer with an optional restraint, and raise the leveler onto the trailer. This action will trigger one of the installed sensors to automatically change the exterior light to red, letting the driver know not to pull away, and interior light to green, indicating that it’s safe to proceed with loading/unloading.
