HTS Systems manufactures (6) six different HTS Ultra-Rack models; each model designed for a different mounting application on the

 exterior of the delivery vehicle or for a specific type of route delivery vehicle. The HTS-10T Tilt Mount unit is our most popular model

 and is designed for the front of most vehicles and it has the ability to pivot and tilt outward to clear the engine hood or cab-over body.  

 The HTS-30D Direct Mount unit is designed for the rear of most beverage and battery side-loader truck bodies. The HTS-20S Swing

 Mount unit is a delivery van application, designed for most commercial cargo delivery vans. The HTS-30DTF unit attaches to semi

 tractor frames on large rigs with zero equipment space, required to drop-hook or must travel bobtail. The HTS-20S-TD is exclusively

 for Taylor-Dunn electric electric vehicles. The HTS-30DI Ultra-Rack unit is designed exclusively for the interior of armored car vehicles,

 large cube vans or box van trucks. Most HTS-10T Tilt Mount applications do require an HTS adapter plate kit to create a vertical

 mounting surface on front bumpers. Our engineering and fabrication department can custom design a mounting application for your

 vehicles. For more information about our Hand Truck Sentry System safety and productivity products, please contact your regional

 HTS Systems distributor, truck body manufacturer, commercial truck leasing company or your local truck body refurbishing facility.

  Hino Truck 338 series and HTS Ultra-Rack professionally installed by TransEdge Truck Center Allentown PA. B&P Manufacturing's Liberator commercial

  hand truck locked securely aboard the HTS-10T Ultra-Rack. This Hino 338 is equipped with Morgan body and many different accessories for the driver.

  HTS-10T shown with the new high position adapter plate for low bumpers or trucks equipped with low profile tires. This new Freightliner M2 is equipped

 with the Clean Idle Emissions diesel, recessed front axle for a sharper turning radius and low profile design for reduced air flow and increased fuel

 mileage. This delivery truck is also equipped with a Johnson Refrigerated Truck Body and Thermo King freezer unit.

 The HTS LED hand truck release switch is designed for under-dash installations or in-dash installations. The switch quickly and easily plugs directly into the fuse port, no cutting or splicing required

 The HTS LED switch prevents the route driver from leaving their hand truck behind, saves route time, fuel, labor and prevents dangerous detachment.

 When the driver completes the delivery and returns back to the vehicle there is no need to re-open the refrigerated area to stow the hand truck,

 lose temperature, fuel and time. The driver secures the hand truck using less effort and can save a minute or more per stop or 30 minutes per day!

 Eliminating the need to reload the hand truck within the temperature controlled refrigerated truck body in ambient 75°-80° degrees weather can save

 fleets $$$ thousands in reefer fuel! The final trip back to the vehicle, before departing can be the most important! Checking in orders, rotating stock,

 signing bill and check can take up to 15 minutes to complete. This is ample time for most refrigerated truck bodies to recover operating temperature.

 Then route driver must reopen the rear cargo door to reload the hand truck. Opening the door draws the colder air outward and down and closing

 the door pushes the warmer air up and inward. In warmer climates this action causes major temperature loss and will normally cause the reefer units

 to recover cargo temperature and run for approximately 5-8 minutes. Five minutes X 20 stops = 100 minutes per day or 1.5 gallons of fuel per truck.

 The HTS Ultra-Rack installed on refrigerated trucks in warmer climates can save fleets $6 dollars per day, $120 per month, per delivery truck!

 In the commercial van market for companies that deliver parcels, documents, paper and janitorial products, food vending and medical supplies there are no ideal methods to safely transport a hand

 truck, without tossing it into the vehicle. Current methods take-up valuable cargo space and decrease payload storage, damage product and require greater physical effort to stow the hand truck. 

 Parcel drivers constantly handle and shuffle their hand trucks within the van to gain access and to reach their cargo shelves and packages. A standard aluminum commercial hand truck transported

 inside the delivery van will  use up approximately 12' -15' cubic feet of valuable cargo space.  When a hand truck is transported inside a delivery van 5 days a week it translates to a payload loss of 

 240-300 cubic feet per month. Most parcel drivers move their hand truck out of their way continuously, actually handling it more than they use it for customer deliveries! It is dangerous and a DOT

 safety violation to transport a loose hand truck within the cab or cargo area, all equipment must be secured. The HTS Ultra-Rack is the most advanced hand truck retaining system for commercial

 delivery vehicles in transit. The HTS-20S Swing Mount unit is designed for the rear of most delivery vans. The HTS-20S Swing Mount can solve nearly every issue associated with smaller delivery

 vans that transport hand trucks, saving our customers time, fuel, cargo space and profits! Maximize your cargo capacity and route productivity, reduce freight damage and prevent floor corrosion.

 The HTS-20S Swing Mount Ultra-Rack - Hand Truck Sentry System saves 12'-15' cubic feet of cargo space every day or 240 -300 cubic feet per month and reduces delivery time and damages!

 The HTS-20SFT unit offers numerous advantages for food service companies looking to reduce operating costs such as; route delivery time, fuel expenses, injuries,

 product damage and freight claims. Food service companies using refrigerated vans in warmer southern climates and during the hot summer months will receive a super 

 payback benefit savings! Reducing cargo temperature loss means less fuel usage, less wear and tear and less maintenance. Fleets can save $25-$35 dollars of fuel per

 week, per van! The HTS-20SFT Ultra-Rack application is a smart, safe and productive method and also looks great on the van! Route drivers can now stop shuffling and

 cross-handling their hand trucks above and around their cargo to access the vehicle or products. No more extracting the hand trucks to the ground to access a single

 box, no wasted route time, reduce labor costs, less physical effort, also prevent work related injuries. Our Hand Truck Sentry System models can pay for themselves in

 6-8 months and save fleets thousands! Route delivery time, cargo space, labor costs, freight claims, vehicle maintenance and equipment loss is Money!

  HTS-20SFT maximizes cargo space in cargo vans, reduces product damage and decreases delivery time.  HTS-20SFT Ultra-Rack is compatible with most commercial hand trucks models.

 interior damage, broken windows, tripping, falls and worker injuries. Comply with DOT safety regulations, keeping all material handling equipment secured before travel.

 The HTS-30DI unit is a vehicle cargo interior mounting application only and includes a manual release method. It does not include an electric dash kit or warning system.

 HTS-30DI is an excellent application for parcel freight companies, vending delivery vans, armored trucks, medical supply, food service routes and professional contractors.

 We are confident that we have a safety and ergonomic enhancement that can reduce the amount of times the vehicle vault is opened by 45% percent! Reduce the vault

 access by hundreds of times per week and also decrease the standard delivery (open-door) time, by hours per week; thereby increasing the armored personnel safety,

 the vault security, the route productivity; while reducing risk and company liability. We have observed many guards leaning and reaching with their torso inside the vehicle.

 The guard’s visibility momentarily obstructed, their back facing towards crowded sidewalks and parking lots, while focusing on lifting and handling their hand truck. The

 hand truck tires and load plate often transfer dirt, mud and snow into the cargo area, causing currency bags and valuable items to become wet or dirty. We have also

 been informed by armored guards who had injured themselves because they slipped on wet floors within the vehicle and fell onto their hand trucks. The HTS-10T unit

 can increase armored personnel safety, vault security, route productivity, fuel economy and save armored services companies thousands of dollars per armored vehicle!

 This HTS-10T Ultra-Rack Tilt Mount unit pictured above and below was placed into a refrigerated environment for deep freeze and ice testing at -10°F or 23.3°C for 6 days of adverse weather.

Winter Climate Cold Weather and Quality Control Testing

The HTS units are assembled with 18-8 stainless steel fasteners and super tough, high impact, glass filled nylon polymers. They will not rust or corrode like steel brackets or retaining frames.   For six continuous days the HTS Ultra-Rack performed extremely well in dry cold tests and layered ice testing! These conditions simulate some of the  winter climate conditions found on customer route delivery vehicles. Operating conditions may vary, depending on severe weather environments and  sub-zero temperatures. In steady Winter climates we recommend cleaning road dirt and grime by lubricating unit with silicone spray and then applying  a thin layer of silicone grease to HTS Push-Bar rails every 6 months to prevent sticking.
