SHR-5000 Shadow Hook® Restraint

Helps secure intermodal containers or trailers with RIG obstructions  
Widest working range (9”-30”) for consistent RIG/ICC bar contact 
Dual clad track provides 50% more track strength to help minimize damage

Benefits

  • Exclusive Hook Design – Exclusive Hook Design offers more wrap than any other restraint which helps maintain engagement in below-dock end load situations. Contoured Hook is designed to entrap RIG equipped trailers (mandated in 1998) as well as outdated ICC bars. Shadow Hook technology allows restraints to properly engage intermodal chassis and obstructed RIGs.  
  • Widest Working Range – SHR-5000 has a 9” – 30” working range for consistent RIG and ICC bar contact while the spring-loaded structural hardened steel housing is automatically positioned when the unit is contacted by a backing trailer.
  • Reliable Performance – Dual clad track provides 50% more track strength to help minimize damage for heavy loading environments or aggressive pull-out attempts on SHR-5000. Standard on 9” carriages, the dual articulating nose extension ensures the widest range of coverage to help protect the SHR-5000 from potential damage when servicing RIGs lower than 22”.  
  • Integrity of Installation – Completed dock survey required for each dock position to help ensure safe and proper application of all Dok-Loks. Critical to the safety of material handlers and equipment, the surveys are reviewed by expert Applications team if outside of standard dock configuration.
  • Pull-Out Force Benchmarks – Rite-Hite was the first loading dock equipment manufacturer to establish pull-out force benchmarks based on years of research and development. Followed today by many other manufacturers, all Rite-Hite restraints are installed with mounting force in excess of 100,000 lbs. and 32,000 lbs. of pull-out force, doubling what tractors can achieve when in first gear.
  • Withstand Harsh Loading Dock Environment – Military grade corrosion resistant finish on rotating hook track, base plate, and housing. Mounted above ground away from dirt, debris, snow, ice and standing water, SHR-5000 successfully endures 1000 hours of salt spray testing compared to only 100 hours of galvanized restraints. Flood seal option seals IP-66 rated motor to help protect against decline dock flooding in case of heavy rain fall, drainage system failures and more.

Hazard Recognition and Control Video

Inside the dock area, Pedestrian-Vu™ uses motion-sensing technology to trigger a bright blue light that projects onto the dock leveler when it detects material handling equipment or a pedestrian’s presence inside the trailer. Pedestrian-Vu also works in conjunction with Dok-Lok® vehicle restraints to alert any dock worker or forklift that enters an unsecured trailer. The blue light flickers as an audible alarm alerts the unsuspecting dock worker that they’ve entered an unsecured trailer, while the external light system simultaneously changes to red, warning the truck driver that there is activity inside the trailer. Outside the dock opening, from a fixed location above the dock door, the new Approach-Vu™ sensor detects the motion of a tractor-trailer backing into a dock position. A visual and audible alarm located on the Dok-Lok vehicle restraint alerts dock workers and pedestrians in the drive approach of the impending danger. This multisensory alert system is particularly important because ambient noise often masks the sound of a cab’s noisy engine, which can be 70 feet or more from the back of the trailer. The complete four-part Rite-Vu system features Corner-Vu™, Leveler-Vu™, and the newest technologies, Approach-Vu™ and Pedestrian-Vu™. This combination of components uses motion detection, line-of-sight notification, and audible alarms to provide hazard recognition and communication to people on and off of forklifts. Working in tandem, these safety tools help create a safer more productive loading dock environment, both inside and outside, by keeping people a step ahead of the potential dangers in their path.  Rite-Vu™ Hazard Recognition and Control
