UniChock Vehicle Restraint

UniChock Vehicle Restraint

Wheel-Based Vehicle Restraint

The UniChock^™ is a wheel-based trailer restraint with advanced light communication and available as a standalone unit or integrated with other dock equipment. This universally effective chock helps prevent unexpected trailer departure or movement from the loading dock during the loading process.

Once a trailer is fully backed and parked in position against the dock bumpers, the UniChock is removed from the storage bracket and placed under the front of one of the trailer’s back tires. This will sound an audible indicator and display a message on the iDock Controller that the unit is in a safe position. The dock attendant can then proceed to open the door and deploy the leveler.

The UniChock is equipped with advanced safety features.  In addition to the controller message display and light communication, If the chock is moved to an unsafe position during loading, an audible alarm will sound until the restraint is back in the correct position.

After loading is complete, the dock attendant stores the leveler and closes the overhead door, which will then sound and display indications to return the UniChock to the storage bracket.
