Why The Grate Guys
What to expect from loading dock doors in Oshawa
Seals meet the dock floor
Bottom seals and thresholds are matched to worn slabs, dock levelers, and weather exposure. Small gaps at the bottom become water, snow, and pest problems.
Panels suit bay cycles
Busy dock doors need hardware and panels chosen for high daily use. Springs, rollers, hinges, and tracks should match the cycle demand.
Dock equipment coordinated
Levelers, bumpers, seals, shelters, guards, and restraints all affect door operation. The door is checked as part of the full bay.
Made in Canada
