What is a Folding Dock Gate?
EdgeGard™ Dock Gates from Wildeck are folding rail dock gates that are durable, reliable and safe. They are easy to install and operate, and provide an effective barrier for personnel and equipment working near open dock doors, truck loading pits or other hazardous areas.
