Warehouse doors are put to extensive daily use, and impaired or out of order doors are fairly common on a majority of loading docks. Oftentimes, doors are impacted by lift trucks. The dock is a hectic, high traffic location, and doors are regular casualties of forklifts that must snake through obstacles and pedestrians in a tight space.

Malfunctioning or compromised doors on your loading dock are not just a hassle, they can likewise be extremely expensive to your warehouse operation. When you're not able to operate a door, it can lead to backups 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 lost performance. Getting dock positions back online immediately is important.

Poorly sealed doors can also cause significant energy loss, especially in environmentally managed and cold storage buildings. Dock doors that remain open are massive escape routes for conditioned air, and an entry point for moisture, wind and extreme conditions from the outside. When a door is broken or hard to open and close, it has a tendency to stay open when the dock becomes busy.

Unsealed doors can likewise allow mice and various other vermin into your building, resulting in product damage and remediation efforts. Furthermore, damaged doors can pose a considerable safety and security threat, offering intruders easy access to your warehouse after hours.
