HERMEQ’s industrial-grade wheel guides are engineered for loading bay applications where safety and precision are non-negotiable. Constructed from galvanised mild steel tubing, they deliver long-lasting durability and high impact resistance. Whether reversing HGVs, trailers or forklifts, these robust parking barriers help protect walls, platforms and dock areas from accidental damage while guiding drivers into precise alignment.
Highly visible and compatible with all standard bolt-down fixings, our wheel guides ensure repeatable, efficient bay entry in time-critical logistics environments.
- Built to Withstand Impact - Engineered to endure heavy knocks from reversing vehicles during daily operations.
- Designed for Visibility - Yellow powder coating option boosts visibility in low-light conditions and congested zones.
- Precision Fit - Designed for 76mm to 168mm diameters with custom lengths for tighter bay setups.
- Safe & Consistent Bay Entry - Reduces costly infrastructure repairs and vehicle misalignment issues.
- Quick Installation - Bolt-down system allows for fast, secure mounting with no concrete cutting required.
These wheel guides are essential safety additions for high-volume distribution centres, manufacturing depots, and freight terminals. By physically channelling the vehicle’s wheels into correct alignment, they eliminate costly guesswork for drivers and safeguard sensitive loading docks from side impacts and misjudged reversing. Each pair is constructed using thick-wall galvanised tube and fitted with reinforced square baseplates, ensuring dependable durability in the face of daily wear and tear.
Powder-coated versions in safety yellow are available for added visibility, meeting the needs of indoor or low-light bay configurations. With fixed dimensions and a simplified installation method, these parking barriers help create a controlled and consistent vehicle approach path, reducing insurance claims, downtime, and damage disputes.

Common Use Cases:
- Logistics loading bays
- Vehicle delivery docks
- Freight terminals and shipping yards
- Industrial storage warehouses
- Distribution hubs
For warehouses managing tight delivery schedules and high vehicle turnover, proper parking alignment is crucial. Wheel guides act as low-profile parking barriers that channel HGVs and trailers into the correct bay position without external assistance. This speeds up unloading, prevents wall impact, and reduces liability claims linked to misparking.
In temperature-controlled facilities or hazardous goods depots, proper dock alignment isn’t just operational—it’s mandatory. Poor positioning can lead to failed dock seals or exposure to contaminants. These wheel guide rails mitigate that by enforcing precise wheel placement and minimising deviation.
Their tough mild steel structure, coupled with optional powder coating, suits both external and internal placements. The 320mm height and 3mm wall thickness give them a low profile without compromising structural strength. Whether for single-bay configurations or large logistics complexes, HERMEQ wheel guides provide long-term durability and visual clarity where it matters most.
