DOCK SHELTERS AND DOCK SEALS
To Make the Right Choice, Remember S.E.A.L.S.!
Choosing the right dock shelters or dock seals can save you money and increase the safety and efficiency of your operation. But there are no "off-the-shelf" solutions. Your situation is unique. So when selecting these products for your facility, consider five key points, represented by the letters S.E.A.L.S.:
|
- Situation: What types of trucks/trailers do you serve and what are the conditions at your site?
- Environmental Control: Protection from the elements, energy loss and safety are important issues when considering the sealing effectiveness!
- Access: Your choice of dock shelter/seal can affect your ability to access loads on trucks and trailers!
- Long life: Product features you choose help to determine the life of your dock shelters/seals and can minimize repair costs!
- Support: Our company has over 45 years of experience!
We offer innovative designs which offer sealing solutions to tailer hinge gaps, damage from trailer impact, rain flowing off top of the trailer, inadequate trailer access and damage from air-ride suspensions.

PVC Dock Seal
Model CKVK-T 5300/5310 series
The PVC dock seal is designed to reduce expensive energy loss by providing a tight seal around trailer sides. When compressed by the backing trailer a gasket-type seal at the sides and top of the trailer is created ensuring high energy efficiency and maximizing employee comfort.
This style of enclosure is appropriate for loading docks that serve a limited range of trailer sizes and that do not require full unobstructed access to loads on the trailer.
