iDock Controls

Reliable loading dock levelers and vehicle restraints from McGuire can now be equipped with iDock® Controls.  These technologically advanced controls provide an efficient interface for ease of use and an interactive message display for valuable equipment usage, instructions, notifications and other information.  iDock Controls also have a 3-color light communication combined into one large LED light assembly to clearly indicate the conditions of the dock.

iDock Controls can send data to the cloud for you to review with iDock® Connect, a web-based software for loading dock analytics.  This IoT technology allows you to login to your online account at iDockConnect.com and monitor your loading dock activity and equipment usage.  iDock Connect can also send you email or text notifications of certain events that occur at your docks.
