Warehouse doors are among the most frequently repaired items in a warehouse, and malfunctioning or out of service doors are not a rarity on many loading docks. In many cases, doors are damaged by forklifts. The dock is a chaotic, congested location, and doors are regular casualties of lift trucks that must weave through pedestrians and obstacles in a confined area.

Malfunctioning or compromised doors on your loading dock are not simply an inconvenience, they can also be extremely costly to your material handling operation. When you're not able to make use of a door, it can result in backups and delays while a bay is out of service. At an active distribution center, every hour a door is out of service results in reduced efficiency. Putting dock positions back online quickly is vital.

Poorly sealed doors can also lead to considerable energy loss, particularly in environmentally managed and cold storage facilities. Each 8x10 dock door is a sizable escape route for conditioned air, and an entry point for moisture, wind and extreme temperatures from the outdoors. When a door is damaged or tough to open or close, it has a tendency to remain open when the dock gets active.

Unsealed doors can likewise admit mice and various other vermin into your facility, leading to product damage and extermination efforts. Moreover, damaged doors can present a considerable safety and security danger, giving intruders easy access to your warehouse after business hours.
