Commercial Docks are subjected to higher stresses and tighter tolerances, longer and more frequent work loads and constant overall use and abuse. Alumadock has created a commercial dock system with those needs in mind and priced competitively. Let us show you some of our projects.
Layouts and Designs
The layout and design of your commercial project is important to ensuring the durability and longevity of the commercial dock system, as well as maximizing the proficiency of the dock space and use. Normal configurations include E docks, with a long main aisle and slips on a single side only. Fishbone style adds fingers to both sides of the main aisle, while larger projects generally become a mixture of styles with prevalent custom elements.
Construction
Commercial Alumadocks feature X9® components and construction elements, for ultimate dock strength and features. In addition to our normal X9® system, we add a substitute our normal cross brace channel for a much heavier tube and add a substantial amount of additional diagonal channel to form a continuous truss through the entire dock frame. This creates an extremely strong and rigid dock system against torsional and lateral forces, as well as extreme vertical forces.
Utilities and Accessories
Commercial projects often require utilities to fully realize the capabilities and profitability of operating a commercial harbor. Alumadock realizes this need and provides the needed design flexibility to handle any conceivable situation. Fiberglass power pedestals provide a safe, convenient and consistent method of providing safety lighting and power to your customers, as well as water, TV and internet service. Combined with a pumpout station, your customers will have all the amenities of home, creating a comfortable and accommodating environment. Safety is of the utmost concern at Alumadock, preventing stray currents and other potentially extremely hazardous marine conditions. We offer safety and fire protection pedestals, combining area lighting with an approved life saving throw device and fire extinguisher station. We also offer a variety of fiberglass dock storage boxes to securely store marine valuables and things too heavy or inconvenient to tow back and forth from home. Accessory Gallery
