Lee Locks: Secure Stowage for Pallet Trucks

When transporting goods, ensuring equipment such as pallet trucks is safely stowed is vital to maintaining both cargo integrity and safety on the road. Enter Lee Locks, an innovative solution designed specifically to secure pallet trucks within rigid bodywork or trailers.

Lee Locks utilise a sprung-loaded, T-shaped bar mechanism that fits into specially recessed slots in the trailer or body floor. This allows the pallet truck to be locked securely in place, preventing movement during transit. The system is robust yet easy to operate, making it ideal for logistics operators who frequently need to carry a pallet truck alongside their load.

Key Benefits of Lee Locks:

  • Secure Stowage: Keeps pallet trucks fixed in position, reducing the risk of damage to both the truck and cargo.
  • Quick & Easy Operation: The T-shaped bar and recess system allows for fast locking and release.
  • Convenient Storage: The Lee Lock "key" can be stowed somewhere convenient when not in use, ensuring it is readily available.
  • Improved Safety: By eliminating loose equipment in the cargo area, Lee Locks help improve on-road safety.
  • Load Versatility: Ideal for mixed cargo operations where manual handling equipment is needed on-site.

How Lee Locks Work:

  1. The pallet truck is positioned within the designated stowage area.
  2. The T-shaped, sprung-loaded bars are engaged by pushing them into the recessed slots and twisting them through 90 degrees to lock in place.
  3. Once engaged, the bars lock the pallet truck in place, preventing lateral or vertical movement.
  4. To release, the operator simply lifts and twists the T-bar back to its original position to disengage the system.

Applications:

Lee Locks are widely used in:

  • Retail Distribution: Supporting deliveries to stores by ensuring a pallet truck is always available.
  • Construction Logistics: For transporting materials to sites where manual handling equipment is essential.
  • General Haulage: Offering flexibility for operators who carry various load types.

If you frequently transport pallet trucks and want a reliable stowage solution, Lee Locks provide a durable and efficient option. For more information on how Lee Locks can be integrated into your commercial vehicle, get in touch with us today.
