Dock Door Draft Seals

Keep drafty dock areas warm. These seals block drafts between dock door seals and levelers. They’re filled with foam, so you can squish them into gaps for a tight seal. The weighted base will keep them in place. Use the handle to pull them out of gaps and carry them.

Folding Guards for Dock Doors

Prevent damage to dock doors using these bright yellow guards, which act as a barrier and catch the eye of vehicle operators. When you need to open the doors, raise these guards up and out of the way using their handle. Thanks to their powder coating, they’re good for use outdoors. They have mounting holes in their baseplate for bolting them to the ground.

Adjustable-Size Plastic Column Guards


	Shown Installed with (4) Extension Kits

Shield columns with irregular dimensions, non-standard shapes, and attached pipe or conduit that standard guards can’t fit. These modular guards have four interlocking sides that wrap around the column and provide 4" of adjustment in width or depth to fit a wide range of column sizes. They flex and rebound on impact to absorb energy and minimize damage to both the column and vehicle during a collision.

Add extension kits for larger columns. Kits include two pieces, each adding 10" to the width or depth. Use multiple kits to fit any column size in your facility.

Foam Column Guards

Like gym mats, these guards have a foam core that compresses to soften minor bumps and scrapes. They’re slimmer than plastic guards, so they fit into tight aisles and other narrow spaces. However, they don’t offer as much protection from direct forklift hits as plastic and steel guards. Their bright yellow color makes them easy to spot. Secure them in place with a hook and loop strip along the side.

Foam I-Beam Guards

Shield exposed I-beams against minor bumps and scrapes from carts and foot traffic. These guards have a thick foam core that absorbs impact similar to a gym mat. Their vinyl cover resists moisture, chemicals, and abrasion. Bright yellow in color, these guards are easy to spot in busy areas.

Mount them directly to the beam flange to save floor space and fit into tight spaces where wraparound guards can’t. They fit snugly on their own, but can also be installed with hook and loop straps for extra hold. These guards can also be stacked.

Plastic Column Guards

Protect columns and vehicles from collision damage. Made from polyethylene, these guards are durable yet forgiving—they flex and rebound to cushion blows. They’re tested to withstand everything from minor scrapes to direct forklift hits, so they hold up in high-traffic warehouses. A brightly colored surface makes them easy to spot.

To simplify installation, these guards are split down the middle. Fit both halves around your column and secure with the included straps. You can also stack them for more coverage.

Plastic I-Beam Guards

Two Guards

Shown Installed

Protect exposed I-beams near walls or in tight spaces. These guards cover a single flange, so you can use them in areas where wraparound guards won’t fit. Made from hard, durable plastic, they deflect impacts from forklifts and pallet jacks. Their bright yellow color makes them easy to spot, so you can avoid accidents. Snap their molded groove onto a flange and they’ll stay put—no straps or fasteners needed. Stack them for extra coverage.

Steel Column Guards

Create a rigid barrier around load-bearing columns and other critical structures. These guards mount to the floor, so the force of a collision won’t be transferred to your column. Made from steel, they’re strong enough to stop a moving forklift. However, they don’t flex on impact like plastic or foam guards, so they may damage your vehicle. Their bright color helps drivers spot them before they get too close.

Mount these guards to the floor with wedge anchors or other concrete anchors.

For Square, Round, and I-Beam Columns


Style 1	Style 2

Style 1—These guards have one open side for easy installation in tight spaces or around obstacles, such as columns or pipes positioned against a wall.

Style 2—Wrap these guards around freestanding columns. They come with two matching plates that bolt together.

Steel Tubing Guards

Protect exposed pipes, ducts, and downspouts from forklifts and other vehicles. Often used in parking garages and warehouses, these guards create a rigid, impact-resistant barrier around your tubing. They’re bright yellow, which makes them easy to spot. Mount them with anchors designed for your wall’s material.

High-Visibility Raised-Bulb Surface Guards

Polyethylene

Bright colors make these guards easy to spot in busy areas. Their raised-bulb profile deflects impact better than flat guards. Use them to protect walls and other surfaces from chips and scrapes in areas such as warehouses, loading docks, and parking garages.

Hardness Rating—The harder the surface guard, the better it resists impact and abrasion to protect the surface. The softer the surface guard, the more cushioning it provides to protect both the surface and the object that comes into contact with it.

High-Visibility Plastic Corner Guards

Bright colors make corners easy to spot. Unlike rubber and foam guards, these plastic guards deflect impact away from corners instead of absorbing it. They’re often used in parking garages, warehouses, and loading docks.

High-Visibility Foam Corner Guards

Style 2—90° Angle

Highlight the edges of equipment and obstructions with our softest high-visibility guards. Made of polyurethane foam, they pad corners to protect the people and objects from bumps that can cause injuries or damage. They also resist abrasion.

Adhesive Back—Peel and stick to any clean, smooth surface. These guards can be cut to size.

Extra Flexible—Bend around tight curves and contours.

Hardness Rating—The harder the guard, the better it stands up to impact and abrasion over time. The softer the guard, the more cushioning it has to protect the corner and the object that bumps it.

Light Pole Guards

Protect light poles and exposed concrete bases from vehicle impact while giving bases a uniform look. Made of polypropylene, these guards resist solvents, degreasers, moisture, and UV fading, so you can use them outside for years. A foam liner helps them stay seated against chipped or worn concrete and absorb minor vehicle contact. Their bright yellow color makes them easy to spot in busy areas.

These guards include everything you need for installation—no tools required. Stack the two-piece rings around the base and snap them together. They lock with a tamper-resistant latch. Add or remove rings to match the height of your base, then finish with a snap-on cap. Caps can be cut to fit round or square poles of any size.
