OVERVIEW
Retractable dock door curtains move side to side unlike the roll up vinly doors. They are great for low traffic areas that don't require a lot of opening and closing. They are also less expensive and are great for very large openings. The dock door curtains are designed to give maximum temperature separation (which reduces heating and cooling costs) while giving maximum protection against insects, birds, rodents, or flying debris. Depending on your application we offer 2 types of retractable doors (Single or bi-parting).
