Facilities face greater challenges today regarding environmental control at the loading dock. Maintaining consistant temperature control, avoiding energy loss, effectively sealing varying trailer configurations, and meeting regulatory requirements are real issues.
Additionally, air ride suspension and intermodal trailers create more abrasive movement on dock shelters. The Serco Blackout™ model BDS-S Dock Shelter is specifically designed for the most demanding applications.
Serco exclusive UHWR™ (Ultra High Wear Resistant) fabric features superior wear resistance. Tested and certified to 40,000+ abrasion cycles which is up to ten times the abrasion resistance of the competitive fabrics tested.
- Exclusive S-900DD DryDock® Integral system effectively blocks moisture infiltration from the top of trailer.
- Exclusive Hinge Guard™ seals off hinge gap around swing out doors, blocking air and light from entering the facility.
- Exclusive UHWR (Ultra High Wear Resistant) fabric on top and bottom wear panels where heaviest trailer abrasion occurs.
- Exclusive LightBlockr™ connector curtain blocks air and light infiltration at overlap of side and head curtains.
- Structural, rigid head frame acts as a canopy while translucent top cover allows increased visibility and operating light.
- Exclusive roll-formed, galvanized steel framing extends product life and is superior to wood construction.
- Foam-filled side members provide protection from impact by off-center trailers.
