TC500 SERIES FLEXIBLE WOOD FRAME

TC500 SERIES FLEXIBLE WOOD FRAME

The TC 500 series flexible wood frame shelter services a wide variety of vehicle sizes and types, while providing full unimpeded access to the interior of the trailer. The flexible frame yields to misguided vehicles and aids in the prevention of costly building and shelter damage. If an off-center trailer contacts the frame it moves upwards and back to prevent potential damage to the wall and/or shelter. After the vehicle leaves the steep pipe and track design returns the frame to its original position. The top is raked to promote drainage and top and sides are covered with a translucent fabric to protect from the elements and permit light to enter. Covered foam bottom pads are standard.
