Dock Seals
Novoferm horizontal cushion dock seals offer protection against draughts, rain and wind. They create a seal between heavy goods vehicles and the building. This reduces energy loss, the risk of damage to goods and sickness absenteeism resulting from poor working conditions. They also help keep birds and insects out of the building. Dock seals are only suitable for a limited range of heavy goods vehicle widths. Consequently, dock seals are generally only used by companies that operate one main type of vehicle. Making the horizontal cushion adjustable in height considerably extends the sealing range of the system

Components & Construction
Novoferm DSA adjustable horizontal cushion dock seals consist of one horizontal and two vertical cushions made of compressible foam-rubber and upholstered with reinforced plastic sheet. Each cushion is attached to a wooden base. The front face of the vertical cushions features a wear pad made of reinforced plastic sheet. The cushions are installed around the door opening on the outside of the building and seal the gap between the heavy goods vehicle and the building. A counter-balance arrangement balances the weight of the horizontal cushion and allows easy manual adjustment.
