Problem — The dock security situation for this air cargo customer called for folding security dock door gates that would prevent packages from entering or exiting through the dock doors either through the webbing or thrown over the top of the gates. Security in air and sea cargo ports has become mission critical under new Homeland Security measures — full compliance was at risk. Smaller dock gates previously installed on the inside of the openings proved to be too flimsy to stand up to the everyday abuse that can take place inside of the facility.

Solution — Working with the loss prevention managers, Alpine Systems chose IEP heavy duty full height top track gates mounted on the outside of the opening.

Result — Full height top track gates were chosen to totally secure the opening while the close knit diamond openings prevented any package exchange through the webbing. Full security and compliance with Homeland Security measures and OSHA regulations was achieved. Less costly painted steel gates also didn't provide the best value especially in the Miami area. IEP's galvanized steel folding gates stand up to weather — they're rust resistant — and they look better and last longer.
