Russ Noonan and Chelsey Davisson, a father – daughter team are working together in their company, E&M Trailer Securement.
Russ recognized a problem with secured trailer doors when backing into loading docks, and he decided to find a solution. After hours of research and testing, Badger Safety Straps were developed.
Russ had reports of doors swinging straight back while backing in a sloped dock in the dark. The trailer door pushed in the dock overhead door and removed the trailer door, resulting in a large repair bill and insurance claim. Badger Safety Straps can prevent these types of situations from happening.
Badger Safety Straps are simple to install, easy to use and secure trailer doors.
Russ knows unsecure trailer doors can be costly. Door repair shop rates are approximately $90.oo per hour and road services are $150.00 per hour. You can count on four hours to replace a door panel and hardware.
When you add the cost of the replacement door, hardware, shop/repair, service call and time lost on the road – you easily could have a $1,500.00 repair bill. If any other damage is caused by an unsecure door, the cost could be higher.
