The DS4000 is recommended for cold stores and where vehicles with tail lifts are prominently used. Models are available for either dock mounted or down to ground and can be custom manufactured to suit most environments, i.e.:- large or low doorways.
It is advised that the inflatable is interlocked with the door and that traffic lights and wheel guides are used in conjunction to give an efficient longer life.

DS5000 Inflatable Dock Seal
This inflatable dock seal provides you with a versatile sealing system, being able to facilitate various sized vehicles whilst offering the ultimate sealing of the vital gap between the vehicle and building.
The seal is particularly suited for vehicles with barn doors as it inflates directly out from the building filling the gap between the door when open and the vehicle body. Another distinct advantage is that no pressure is transmitted through the vehicle to the building, also that substantial steelwork is not required for installation.
DS7000 Inflatable Dock Seal
The DS7000 is a practical solution to supplying an ultimate versatile sealing system where space maybe an issue and incursion into the rear of the vehicle is not acceptable. The seal is particularly effective to vehicles with roller shutter doors on the rear.
Although not particularly aesthetic, it can cater for a variation in vehicles heights up to 1.8m difference and with no level projections is not as susceptible to damage. As per the rest of the inflatable range, no pressure is transmitted from the vehicle to the building.
