Series 0501 Adjustable Truck Shelter
Designed for door openings up to 10’W x 10’H, the Series 0501 is designed to retract upon impact. The 0501’s collapsible scissor arms are spring loaded, keeping the shelter in a projected position. When compressed by an incoming trailer the panels create an air tight seal. The series 0501 is very effective where the driveway approach is difficult. The series 0501 creates a tight seal that blocks out foul weather, insects, dust and dirt, while saving money on energy costs. A large selection of tough abrasion resistant fabrics makes this unit an excellent long lasting investment. Truck shelters help productivity by increasing safety, protecting personnel, products and equipment.
