The mechanical dock shelter PMV is a new product of PROMStahl’s wide product range. Various dimensions of warehouse openings and of the docked vehicles result in gaps which have to be sealed in the best possible way.
The front and the rear frame of the PROMStahl dock shelter consist of high-stability extruded aluminum sections connected to each other by bracing arms. The curtain is 3 mm thick, made of highly wear and tear resistant double-layer PVC-coated cloth and mounted on the flexible frame. Thanks to the adaptable roof and the parallel guide systems the front structure moves backward in the case of inaccurate docking, hence preventing damage to the dock shelter. The front part of the dock shelter is provided with warning stripes to facilitate the docking process. An integrated rain channel allows lateral drainage of rainwater (optional). The standard version of the dock shelter is provided with a slit in the left and right-hand corner. Partially or completely slit top curtains are available at little surcharge.
The PMV dock shelter is pre-mounted and consists of just three parts; therefore, it can be mounted to the façade very fast and easily. Considerable savings regarding time and money are the decisive advantages of this design.
