At Kendall Industries, we didn’t set out to just build another piece of dock equipment—we set out to solve a real, physical problem for the people working the line. Based in St. Louis, Missouri, we are proud to be a trusted manufacturer of veteran owned industrial safety products, bringing military-grade discipline and precision to the logistics and material handling sectors.
Built on American Craftsmanship
When we looked at the traditional loading dock environment, we saw a glaring flaw: the heavy, awkward rubber blocks that workers were forced to wrestle with every single day. We knew our background in precision machining and custom metalwork could produce something smarter. That drive to eliminate unnecessary physical strain led to the creation of the patented Ergo Wheel Chock.
Quality That Stands Up to the Job
We believe that if a tool is meant to protect lives and livelihoods, it shouldn’t be treated as a disposable commodity. That’s why every Ergo Chock is manufactured right here in the USA from heavy-duty, all-steel components. We don’t rely on cheap, imported plastics or easily degraded rubber that crumbles under the weight of an 80,000-pound rig. We build equipment designed to outlast the trucks it secures.
Tailored Solutions for Heavy Industry
While our standard Ergo Chocks fit the vast majority of commercial logistics needs, we understand that enterprise-level operations sometimes require a tailored approach. Whether your facility has unique vehicle profiles, specific dimensional requirements, or needs corporate color-matching via custom powder coating, our fabrication team can engineer custom steel wheel chocks to match your exact fleet specifications.
When you partner with Kendall Industries, you aren’t just buying a chock. You are investing in robust American manufacturing, backing a veteran-owned small business, and—most importantly—equipping your team with the tools they need to clock out safely at the end of their shift.
