T-1DTHD SERIES
For door openings up to 8' wide x up to 12' high with inclined driveways
Heavy Duty
Tapered Drape Seals
Construction Drape Curtain
Bondor foam dock seals are constructed
of the finest materials and assembled to
give you years of dependable service.
Our weighted curtain is made the width of
the seal opening, and it covers the face of
the sidepads.
Double Layer Face Polyfoam Core
An extra layer of material on the face
of the seal reinforces and protects
the foam core from damage.
Insulating polyurethane foam conforms
to the shape of the truck to form a tight
weatherseal.
Mounting Board Galvanized Hardware
Our foam core is bonded to a kiln-dried
2" thick wood backboard for an easy,
long-lasting installation.
All Bondor Foam Seals are provided
with appropriate galvanized mounting
brackets. Building fasteners not included.
Permanent Guide Stripe Color
A 4" wide contrasting guide stripe is
sewn on.

Standard colors are black with a yellow
guide stripe. Other colors available upon
request.

Rugged Vinyl Cover
A 40 oz. nylon reinforced vinyl material is used on our heavy duty seals. Top quality
abrasion resistant 22 oz. vinyl coated nylon fabric is used to cover our standard seals.
Open Bottoms
The bottom of all vertical pads is open to allow air to escape during compression of the seal,
reducing the amount of stress on the vinyl fabric.
Full Width Header
Header to consist of full width, weighted drape curtain with mounting backboard. Curtain to
be supported between side pads by galvanized pipe sewn into curtain.
Tapered Side Pads
Tapered side pads accommodate a pitched ramp approach to your building. The specific
taper is custom made to match the angle of your driveway.

1.

Determine (measure) your inclined driveway to establish the amount of driveway rise and your driveway length. See sketch
below.

"A" Note: In cases where the building wall is setback from the edge of the dock, the actual bumper projection required is less
the building setback. Example: The incline chart indicates a 12" bumper "A" dimension but the building wall is setback 3",
therefore the actual bumper necessary would be 9".

2. Determine the requried dock bumper size and dock seal side pad dimensions by using the incline chart below. This chart
is designed to leave the top of the truck approximately 6" from the building wall when the truck is fully docked.
a. Find your driveway rise in the left column and follow across the chart to a driveway length closest to your actual
measured length. Dimensions A,B & C are the recommended sizes of your dock bumpers and your dock seal taper.
Dimensions B & C will be used in the price tables below to order the actual correct dock seal model #.
b. Example: Driveway rise is 24", driveway length is 40'. At the intersection of these two rows in the chart, dimensions
A = 12, B = 16 and C = 10. This means that for this example you would have dock bumpers (or a dock projection)
of 12" with foam side pads which taper from 16" at the bottom to 10" at the top.
