Loading docks play a crucial role in warehouse operations, and the efficiency of these spaces is significantly impacted by the use of sealing systems.
At Overhead Door Company of Central Jersey, we recognize the importance of sealing systems for loading docks, offering valuable benefits such as:
➜ Temperature Regulation:
Sealing systems help maintain internal warehouse temperatures, reducing energy costs during extreme weather conditions.
➜ Freight Protection:
Safeguard incoming and outgoing freight from potential damage during loading and unloading processes.
➜ Safety for Workers:
Create a safer work environment by preventing the accumulation of ice, sleet, and snow on loading docks, minimizing the risk of accidents.
➜ Pest Control:
Act as a barrier against rodents, preventing mice and rats from entering the warehouse.
➜ Security Measures:
Enhance security by protecting against theft and unauthorized access to the warehouse.
➜ Extended Workspace:
Transform parked trailers into secure, climate-controlled extensions of your facility.
There are two main types of sealing systems for overhead loading dock doors:
- Compression Foam Dock Seals:
These cloth-covered foam seals, installed on the wall at the loading dock door, provide a tight seal against the back of a truck. They offer a secure seal but may limit access to the inside of the trailer and have a maximum door width of 9 feet.
- Dock Shelters:
Featuring a robust and flexible frame attached to the wall around the loading dock door, dock shelters use curtains to seal against the back of a truck and the building wall. They provide full access to the inside of the trailer and can be installed on various overhead loading dock doors.
Loading Dock Seals & Dock Shelters
When choosing a sealing system, consider factors such as the types of trucks you handle, the grade of the approach to your loading dock doors, door dimensions, loading dock height, and wall construction material.
