Loading dock signs are critical for preventing serious accidents in one of the most hazardous areas of a facility. They warn of fall hazards from open docks, remind drivers of safety procedures, and control vehicle traffic.
The biggest hazards include forklifts driving off an open dock, pedestrians being hit by forklifts or trucks, and trailer creep where a trailer moves away from the dock, causing a forklift to fall in the gap. Signs for Watch for Forklifts are especially common here.
Common messages include caution: watch for forklifts, truck wheels must be chocked, and clearance signs like caution: low clearance. our comprehensive selection ensures all hazards are addressed.
A wheel chock sign is a vital loading dock safety sign that reminds truck drivers and dock workers that the wheels of the trailer must be chocked (blocked) before loading or unloading can begin. This procedure is mandatory to prevent trailer separation, a major dock hazard.
Signs should be placed at every dock door (e.g., chock wheels), on the dock edge, and at all entrances to the loading dock area (caution: forklift traffic).
