Hello,

I am working on a warehouse improvement project and one of the major jobs is to install some dock locks/truck restraints. There are so many different designs to choose from. Does anyone have any experience installing dock locks or know of the best designs/suppliers. I would like a dock lock that has a good vertical range. My preference so far is to the hook versions.

What did you finally decide to go with on this installation?
Did you go manual or automatic?
 
I have installed Rite-Hite Dok-Locks. The supplier is Arbon Equipment. You can find a web site with their locations. We bought the hook style and it had enough height adjustment to take a number of different trailers. In one place where there wasn't room for a hook style, we have a wheel lock.

We have no complaints with either of these styles from this manufacturer.
