Pallet caps are included on the top of all ASSA ABLOY Security Doors’ deliveries to safeguard the steel doors, so that they do not become damaged during transportation.
The pallet cap is a yellow cardboard cone, attached to all the door makers’ deliveries. When a delivery arrives, if the cardboard cone is crushed, or not attached to the pallet, this is an indication that steel doors may have become damaged during haulage and the quality of steel doors could be compromised.
The whole pallets are also shrink-wrapped to help protect the doors against wet weather conditions during loading and unloading and a steel strap secures the doors in place for transportation. In addition, polystyrene is included around the doors’ corners to safeguard against damage.
Brian Sofley, Managing Director at ASSA ABLOY Security Doors, said: “We offer the UK’s leading ranges of proven security doors – Powershield steel doors and Safeguard timber doors. We take great pride in providing high quality products, so want to ensure that the doorsets arrive to projects in pristine condition. The attention to detail that we give to ensure our deliveries arrive safely is unique to ASSA ABLOY Security Doors.”
The firm adds that it also ensures that its doorsets are not damaged as they are put onto and taken off delivery vehicles; a timber framework surrounds the doors, to prevent forklifts from making direct contact with the products. Visit http://www.assaabloy.co.uk/Security-Doors.
