Dock bumpers are durable protective components that prevent loading docks from damage caused by impact while increasing the longevity of the loading dock. Dock bumpers cushion contact with trucks, containers and carts to prevent costly damage.
They are made from durable materials like molded and extruded rubber, with some models featuring steel faces for added protection. Dock bumpers are used in shipping facilities, warehouses, and other logistics management locations that utilize high-traffic loading docks.
The Benefits of Dock Bumpers
Bumpers are a necessity for any facility that operates a loading dock, for several reasons:
- They prevent semi-trailers from making contact, or hitting, your building
- They are engineered to absorb shock and collisions
- Quality bumpers will last for years, making them a sound investment
- They can prevent accidents if your docks are at irregular approach grade
While there are many benefits of utilizing bumpers to prevent costly damage to your facility and trucks, we also provide additional loading dock shelter services for increased safety at your facility.
Types of Dock Bumpers:
Heavy-Duty loading dock bumpers
Heavy-duty loading dock bumpers protect docks from vehicle impact. They are made of heavy-duty rubber allowing them to absorb 80% of the impact force, making them ideal for long-term outdoor use. Our loading dock bumpers feature pre-drilled anchor bolt holes allowing for quick installation, and are available in a variety of sizes.
Steel-Faced loading dock bumpers
Steel-faced loading dock bumpers offer optimal protection for docking areas where excessive friction occurs. They feature a scratch resistant steel face, and a heavy-duty laminated rubber base for peak impact absorption. These steel faced loading dock bumpers come with pre-drilled mounting holes and are available in a variety of sizes.
Extruded rubber fender bumpers
Protect walls, buildings and other structures with extruded rubber fender bumpers. These bumpers have a weather and abrasion resistant construction, and feature a half-oval design that provides effective protection over a wide radius. These rubber fender bumpers can be installed horizontally or vertically depending on your needs.
Laminated dock bumpers
Laminated dock bumpers absorb 80% of impact force to protect structures from damage. Dock bumpers are constructed of truck tire material making them ideal for docks, warehouses, loading bays and more. Our laminated dock bumpers are available in a variety of sizes to fit your specific needs.

Used Habpro for a new garage door and had a great experience! Garage door was installed in a few hours and is very smooth and a lot quieter compared to the old door. We opted for the insulated door and highly recommend this option. The garage has stayed way cooler in the summer than it was previously.

I had a rotted panel on my 40-year old garage door. When I called Habpro, I spoke directly to the owner, texted him photos and measurements and he gave me a reasonable quote over the phone. Jared, the installer, was courteous and friendly. He finoshed the job in less than an hour. It is a perfect match. I wish I'd called sooner.

I contacted Habpro Garage Door Services as soon as my garage door jammed. Could not get into our house without going through the garage. Mr. Bill Farmer was at my house in almost less than 10 minutes after my call and he was beyond professional. We were very impressed by his professionalism and his ability to do the job. Would recommend his service to anyone who needs beyond adequate help.

My garage door top panel was broken and bent. I contacted 2 different garage door companies who quickly quoted a price to replace the entire garage door. I then contacted Habpro and I am so glad that I did! They requested that I send them pictures of my garage door and were able to give me a reasonable quote to repair the door. They explained what they intended to do and set an appointment for the next day. I was kept informed of my tech's arrival. Jared arrived on time and he was professional, courteous and knowledgeable. He fixed my garage door and added additional hardware to improve the structure of the door. The job was completed in about 30 minutes. I have already referred Habpro to my neighbor. This was a great experience!

It's great when you receive service from someone who is knowledgeable and skilled in their field. When I contacted Habpro, they were able to give me options on how best to address my issue. They came out, repaired the door expertly, and charged a reasonable fee. Two months later, I am still pleased! I recommend you that give them a call if you're having a problem with your garage door.
