Lock around the dock

The new DOBO Loading Bay System from Hörmann is designed to meet the needs of warehouses with controlled environments as found in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The solution allows a truck to dock on to a loading bay with the rear doors locked improving security, particularly when high value items are carried.

Once a vehicle is on the loading bay, inflatable dock seals surround it on three sides. The vehicle is now docked with both the loading bay door and the truck doors still closed.

When the loading door is opened the specially designed dock buffers can then be lowered below the lower level of the truck doors. This allows the truck doors to be unlocked and opened in to the recess designed into the bay area.
