Interlocked Sequence of Operations

Optimize loading dock safety and productivity with controls
Customize sequence based on facility’s standard operating procedures
Take human error out of the loading dock operation equation
Lok-Vu

Safe Sequence of Operations

Interlocking loading dock equipment into a sequence of operations helps ensure personnel follow safety protocols and processes. Interlocked by way of Dok-Lok® Style Light Communication System or Dok-Commander® Combined Control Panel, the customized sequence is based on a facility’s existing equipment and operating procedures.

Custom Safe Sequence of Operations

Dok-Commander® is programmable to provide safe, sequential operation in a custom sequence to help optimize safety at the loading dock or the following sequences to best fit your application:

  • Door Protection Sequence helps protects overhead doors and employees
  • Best Practice Sequence helps secure trailers and protect employees
  • Supply Chain Integrity allows controls to interface, helping keep the supply chain safe

Help Reduce Human Error

Immediately or Incrementally Optimize Light Communication

Dok-Lok® Style Light Communication System allows facilities to address their most urgent safety needs first but reserving the opportunity to integrate loading dock safety solutions at a fraction of the cost compared to standalone equipment purchases. Optimize the system with:

  • Dok-Lok® Vehicle Restraints
  • Line-of-Sight Light Communication
  • Pedestrian-Vu™
  • Approach-Vu™

Dok-Commander® Combined Controls

Dok-Commander® Combined Control Panel integrates multiple loading dock control components at each dock position for a total dock safety system, including: Dok-Lok® Vehicle Restraints, dock levelers, dock doors and Rite-Vu™ Hazard Recognition and Control. The control panel’s flexible circuitry meets changing needs with easily updatable components and add-ons, such as incorporating Lok-Vu™ at time of purchase or later when budget allows.

Pedestrian-Vu™ Active Loading Verification

Know Your Risks at the Loading Dock

With over 100,000 forklift crossings per leveler annually, dangerous loading dock accidents can occur in many ways. When paired with Dok-Loks®, Rite-Vu™ Hazard Recognition and Control helps prevent costly hazards, such as:

  • Traditional Trailer Separation Accidents
  • Forklifts Running off the Edge of Dock
  • Pedestrian and Forklift Collisions
  • Trailer Backover Accidents in the Drive Approach

Benefits

">Rite-Vu™ Hazard Recognition and Control into the following sequences:

  • Closed Door (Supply Chain Integrity) Policy – allows controls to interface to help keep the supply chain safe in the following steps: 1. Verify trailer is at dock door to 2. engage Dok-Lok™. 3. Green light on inside control box will reflect safe engagement. 4. Open overhead door and 5. raise leveler into operational position. Proceed to 6. load and unload, once completed, 7. position leveler to store. 8. Close overhead door and 9. disengage Dok-Lok. 10. Red light on inside control box will reflect an unsecured trailer.
  • Open Door Policy – helps secure trailers and protect employees in the following steps: 1. Open overhead door and 2. verify trailer is at the dock door. Once verified, 3. engage Dok-Lok. 4. Green light on inside control box will reflect safe engagement. 5. Raise leveler into operational position and proceed to 6. load and unload. Once complete, 7. position leveler to store and 8. disengage Dok-Lok. 9. The inside control box will now be red to reflect an unsecured trailer. 10. Close overhead door.
  • Door Protection Sequence – helps protect overhead doors and employees by requiring door to be opened in order to operate leveler.
  • Custom Sequence – available through working with Rite-Hite representative.
">Dok-Lok® status to material handlers entering and exiting the trailer via communication controls mounted to the left of the dock door opening.
  • Withstand Harsh Loading Dock Environment – NEMA 4X controls offer a superior level of protection from corrosion and extreme loading environments, such as: windblown dust and rain, splashing water, and more. The flexible circuitry meets changing needs with easily updatable components and add-on features. Exterior lights are UL listed and designed with energy saving LED bulbs.
    • ">Dok-Lok® vehicle restraints help physically enhance security when the control package is linked with an active building security system. If an engaged restraint is tampered with, the building security system is notified and facility protocol is followed.
  • Help Prevent Forklift Accidents at the Dock – With over 7,000 annual forklift accidents involving a forklift running off the Light Communication Systems help prevent Leveler-Vu™ provide immediate line-of-sight Dok-Lok® status to material handlers entering and exiting the trailer, helping reduce unnecessary forklift traffic and miscommunication by clearly indicating green (safe to enter) and red (unsafe to enter). The enhanced visual communication system mitigates the risk of control box obstruction from pallets, personnel, and forklifts
    • ">Lok-Vu™, reducing the amount of processes on the dangerous drive approach.

    All components are available as standalone or incorporated with Dok-Lok Style Light Communication System or Dok-Commander Combined Controls, which offers more flexibility, facilitating the greatest long-term yield per dock position. The systems allow facilities to address their most urgent safety needs first but reserving the opportunity to integrate vehicle restraints and other safety solutions at a fraction of the cost compared to standalone equipment purchases.
