Improve Loading Dock Safety



DOCK-ALERT is a retractable safety barrier for use on loading docks to alert employees to the potential hazard of an open dock door when no truck is present. Made of high visibility OSHA yellow with black/fluorescent hash marks, the mesh curtain allows for air flow while protecting a 48" high open dock.

DOCK-ALERT is easy to install, requiring four floor anchors for the housing and four floor anchors for the receiving hook. High visibility means employees are more likely to remember to expand the barrier when the door is open or a truck has left the dock.

The standard unit, designed for inside or outside use, is a steel reinforced PVC schedule 40 pipe painted OSHA yellow with verbiage "BE ALERT FALL NOT." Its heavy-duty manual retracting mechanism allows one person to quickly expand and retract the 4' x 10' yellow mesh air-through curtain.

Receiving hooks come in seven styles to fit any dock door. Quick turnaround is available on most components.

Specials include extra length panels, panels set low to prevent wind-blown debris and verbiage in English or other languages.
