Product details

Vehicle Restraint

The PowerStop® is a non-impact, hydraulic vehicle restraint, available as a standalone unit or integrated with other loading dock equipment through an optional integrated control panel. The unit helps prevent unexpected trailer departure from the loading dock during the loading/unloading process.

Operation

Once a trailer is backed into position against the dock bumpers, the operator presses the “Engage” button, activating the PowerStop to rise vertically to the trailer’s Rear Impact Guard (RIG), placing a stop behind the RIG and preventing the trailer from being able to pull away. The restraint maintains contact with the RIG and adjusts automatically with the trailer float motion to ensure proper engagement at all times. After loading is complete, the operator presses the “Release” button, lowering the PowerStop unit to a safely stored position, releasing the trailer.
