Summary of Innovation
BrinkAlert's Loading Dock Corner Light Kit (LDLK-C) is a lighting system that activates when a tractor-trailer truck locks onto a warehouse dock. This life-safety innovation helps prevent forklifts from falling off docks or departing trucks.
Upon locking, the outside LEDs facing the truck turn flashing-red, indicating he cannot leave. ?Conversely, the LEDs inside the warehouse turn green, indicating the forklifts are free to enter the restrained truck. If the dock’s door leaves fully-open status while the lock is engaged (dock door is creeping down), the LEDs will flash red, indicating danger of forklifts hitting the door.
