Dock safety gate:
Mezzanine Safeti-Gates Inc., a
manufacturer of industrial safety
products for warehouses, DCs,
and manufacturing facilities, has
introduced a new “Dock-Lift”
safety gate that provides a safe
environment for employees moving material to and from loading
docks.
For more than 30 years, the
company has provided dual-gate
safety systems used primarily in elevated pallet drop and picking operations. With the new Dock-Lift gate, the company has
extended its product line into loading dock operations.
Originally a custom design for a national grocery chain to make
its operations safer, the Dock-Lift safety gate is a self-closing
gate designed to automatically close and lock into place as the
lift elevates, forming a barrier for employees on the lift that are
making the transition from the tractor-trailer to the loading dock
or ground level. The gates stay locked until the lift is lowered
and back on the ground. The gates automatically open when the
platform reaches ground level.
The Dock-Lift safety gate meets OSHA and ANSI (American
National Standards Institute) codes for work platform lifts and
aerial scissors platforms. (Mezzanine Safeti-Gates Inc., www.
mezzgate.com)
Loading dock safety chain: Wisconsin-based aftermarket
accessories company APS Resource has expanded its product line
with the addition of the “Dual Chain,” a set of security chains
that protect workers from edge-of-dock accidents. The chains
offer facilities a low-cost safety option that’s designed to comply
with the necessary OSHA standards, the manufacturer says.
Consisting of two high-visibility yellow security chains made of
powder-coated steel, the Dual Chain is anchored in aluminum
rings from opposite sides of the loading dock doorframe. The
chains are then stretched across the loading dock and secured
into their corresponding receivers by pre-attached turnbuckles.
This product is manually operated and comes in lengths that
accommodate door sizes of 8 feet, 9 feet, and 10 feet. (APS

Dock leveler: Poweramp’s
CentraAir (CA) air-powered dock
leveler incorporates the use of
existing plant air or air from a
dedicated compressor along with
an industrial automotive-grade air
bellows system to raise and lower
the platform. It’s operated with
pushbutton activation and requires no electricity in the pit, making the unit suitable for washdown applications or wet environments, the manufacturer says.
According to the company, the CA air-powered leveler is an
environmentally friendly addition to any material handling operation and will have minimal effect on the building’s electrical footprint. This leveler is available in a wide range of sizes and capac-ities, and can be modified for special applications. (Poweramp,

Dock gate: The Dock Stop Gate from “Save”ty Yellow
Products is a safety solution designed to prevent accidents—
specifically, accidents that result from fork trucks driving or backing off docks at warehouse and facility gates. The Dock Stop
includes two rotating arms and two 42-inch-tall mounting bollards (30-inch bollards are also available) connected by a sliding
locking bar that locks in place with a pin.
The company says the Dock Stop can withstand impacts
of 4,000 pounds at 5 mph and meets OSHA requirements.

Dock scheduling software: Transporeon, a provider of
cloud logistics software, has introduced a dock scheduling solution for retailers and manufacturing shippers. Transporeon’s
Dock Scheduler is meant to help shippers ensure shipments leave
and/or turn up at the right time, avoiding detention charges and
other fees/issues. The company says the solution reduces idling
and waiting times by up to 40 percent, cuts average loading/
unloading time by up to 60 minutes, and increases productivity
by more than 20 percent.
Similar to the way mobile line-busting tools in retail and
restaurant industries move the point of contact closer to end-cus-tomers, a cloud-based dock scheduling system works to provide
real-time electronic communications among all networked shippers and carriers, allowing them to optimize pickup and delivery
traffic based on actual current conditions. (Transporeon, www.
