Vehicle Restraints
Vehicle Restraint System
Automatic Rotary Hook Restraint with PLC Interlocking.
REDA vehicle restraints use a rotary hook mechanism to securely engage a truck's ICC bar (rear impact guard), preventing trailer creep, early departure, and trailer tip-over. When integrated with the REDA PLC control system, the dock leveler cannot operate until the restraint is engaged — a critical safety interlock.
Key Features
Rotary Hook Engagement
Positive mechanical lock on ICC bar. Prevents trailer creep, early departure, and landing gear collapse.
PLC Safety Interlocking
Dock leveler stays locked until restraint is engaged. Overhead door and dock shelter can be integrated.
LED Signal System
Inside (green/red) and outside (green/red) LED lights communicate dock status to forklift drivers and truck drivers.
DC 24V Safety Voltage
Low-voltage control circuit ensures operator safety. All electrical components meet UL standards.

FAQ
How does a REDA vehicle restraint prevent dock accidents?
A rotary hook mechanically engages the truck's ICC bar (rear impact guard), preventing trailer creep, early departure, and trailer tip-over during loading.
What ICC bar range do the restraints cover?
The THM-800 covers 230–762 mm (9–30 in) above ground; the compact THM-600 covers 254–610 mm (10–24 in).
THM-800 or THM-600 — which should I choose?
THM-800 suits mixed fleets and high-volume docks; THM-600 is the compact option for standardized fleets on a tighter budget.
Can the restraint interlock with my dock leveler?
Yes. With the REDA PLC control system the dock leveler stays locked until the restraint is engaged, and it can also interlock with the overhead door and dock shelter.
What is the restraining force?
Both models hold up to 14,500 kg (32,000 lb).
What is the warranty?
Vehicle restraints carry a 3-year structural warranty.
