Your dock
doors are typically the largest siphon on a cooled internal climate,
constantly bringing sun-scorched air and heat into a cooler

Vinyl Strip Doors
and Curtains control the environment of a defined
area very efficiently. When installed on a frequently-used dock
door, they keep the hot air outside and the cool air inside. The
best thing is to keep dock doors closed when not in use, but that
isn’t always possible. They’re also great for segmenting cooled
areas from hotter areas. Besides the heating issues, they’re also
good for helping to prevent dust or other airborne debris contained.
They allow foot or motorized traffic to pass and can be configured
for just about any size opening from a cooler door to a dock door.
