Stertil wheel guides installed in front of the loading bay increase the safety and efficiency of loading and unloading operations. Wheel guides ensure that the vehicle approaches the loading bay centrally and straight. Thus they allow the dock leveller lip to position centrally on the vehicle floor, and the dock shelter to seal properly against the back of the vehicle.
They also help to prolong the life of dock shelters by reducing off-centre or oblique pressure from vehicles.The flared entrance of Stertil wheel guides cause less wear or damage to vehicle tyres than the sharp edges usually found on concrete guides. Stertil wheel guides are made of galvanised steel.
