DOCK SHELTERS

Dock shelters are designed to accommodate a wide range of trailer heights and widths, making them ideal for facilities with a diverse fleet. Unlike dock seals, shelters don’t rely on compression but instead use side and top curtains to form a protective enclosure. In cold storage applications, this helps minimize temperature fluctuations and energy loss while allowing unrestricted access to the full trailer opening. Dock shelters also reduce the risk of slips, contamination, and equipment damage—making them a reliable solution for safety and efficiency in dynamic warehouse environments.
