Adjustable Head Curtain Dock Seals | Versatile Dock Sealing Solutions
Wilcox Door Service Inc. supplies durable Adjustable Head Curtain Dock Seals designed to create a tight, energy-efficient seal across various trailer heights. Our dock seals improve climate control, protect against external elements, and enhance dock safety for warehouses, distribution centers, and industrial facilities.
How Adjustable Head Curtain Dock Seals Work
An Adjustable Head Curtain Dock Seal is designed to create a compression seal between the building and the truck trailer while accommodating various trailer heights. The adjustable head curtain can be raised or lowered to ensure a snug fit, reducing air infiltration and providing superior protection against dust, debris, and extreme weather conditions.
When a trailer backs into the dock, the foam side pads compress against the trailer’s sides, while the adjustable head curtain conforms to the trailer height. This versatile sealing system ensures maximum efficiency and coverage, preventing energy loss and improving warehouse operations.
