When water infiltrates a loading dock area, wet and slippery floors create unsafe working conditions. Rain Shroud Max effectively diverts rain and harsh weather away from the dock, keeping the loading area dry and safe.
Rain Shroud Max can be installed as a standalone unit or integrated seamlessly with existing dock setups to keep rainwater out of the traffic zone. Its self-adjusting weighted foam pad ensures a tight seal rainwater and accommodates up to 12-inch variance in trailer heights, providing effective coverage and allowing customization based on specific dock requirements.
This economical design is virtually maintenance-free with no mechanical parts. The steel structure with PowderCoat™ finish and galvanized top sheet offers superior protection against rust and corrosion.
Rain Shroud Max conforms to deformities on a trailer's surface, preventing leakage. A reinforced top steel bar creates a tight seal and boosts curtain strength.

Foam Frame Shelters create a tight seal between the building and the back of a vehicle. The soft side pads absorb misalignments from off-center trailers and quickly return to their original shape, maintaining the shelter's integrity over time. The sloped head frame helps protect the dock area from weather elements by diverting rain off the sides, reducing the need for additional canopies.
Designed to accommodate 10' wide x 10.5' high door openings, highway trailers and tailgate trucks, the BG600 provides full, unobstructed access to the trailer interior. The head curtain, side curtains, and foam side frames fit snugly against the trailer, ensuring weatherproof protection.
Standard units seal trailers of 12' to 13' 6" high on a typical 4' dock height.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
Curtains are made from TearResist™ Vinyl and include fiberglass supports to complete the seal and maintain continual pressure against the trailer.
Durable head frame made from pressure-treated lumber covered with UV treated polyethylene sheeting, measuring 138" wide, with an 18" projection and a 36" head curtain
