Warehouse doors are a key trouble spot for many warehouses, and broken or inoperable doors are not a rarity on a majority of loading docks. In many cases, doors are impacted by lift trucks. The dock is a hectic, congested area, and doors are constant casualties of lift trucks that have to criss-cross through obstacles and pedestrians in a tight space.

Malfunctioning or damaged doors on your loading dock are not simply a hassle, they can also be extremely costly to your material handling operation. When you're unable to operate a door, it can result in back-ups and long waits for trucks while a bay is out of service. At a busy distribution center, every minute a door is out of service leads to reduced performance. Getting dock positions back in service quickly is essential.

Poorly sealed doors can also lead to substantial energy loss, this is especially true in climate controlled and cold storage buildings. Every open dock door is a sizable escape hatch for conditioned air, and a way in for moisture, wind gusts and extreme temperatures from the outdoors. When a door is broken or tough to open and close, it has a tendency to stand open when the dock gets busy.

Unsealed doors can likewise admit rats and various other vermin into your building, resulting in product damage and remediation struggles. In addition, damaged doors can present a significant safety threat, offering intruders easy access to your warehouse after hours.
