Dock Shelters

We offer five distinct dock shelter models designed to provide optimal protection and energy efficiency for your loading dock operations. Dock shelters play a crucial role in safeguarding your facility from the elements and improving energy conservation by creating a seal between the loading dock and the trailer. 

Our selection of dock shelters include: TC400 Rigid Wood Frame, TC300 Flexible Steel Frame, TC900 Soft Sided, and TC1000 Weather Sentry™. 

TC400 Rigid Wood Frame

  • Services High Volume Traffic: Designed to accommodate a wide range of high-volume traffic with varying widths and heights while providing unimpeded access to the interior of the trailer.
  • Yellow Guide Stripes: Standard yellow guide stripes assist in positioning trailers, and foam bottom draft pads help prevent air flow.
