TRACK GUARD FOR OVERHEAD DOORS
Track guards for use with overhead doors at loading docks, residential locations, and other facilities are described herein. In some embodiments, the track guards described herein can be two-part assemblies having a first part (e.g., a base member) that mounts directly to a door jamb, and a second part (e.g., an outer member or cap) that can be adjustably positioned relative to a door guide rail and then fixedly attached to the base member. In some embodiments, the outer member can include recesses or pockets, elongate edge features, and/or other shapes that are configured to clip onto or otherwise cover a portion of the guide rail to provide support and/or prevent, or at least reduce the likelihood of, damage from operational loads and/or impacts to the guide rail. Additionally, in some embodiments the track guards described herein can include various types of attachment features so that lights, reflective elements, motion sensors, fans, and/or other devices can be quickly and easily mounted to the track guard at various positions near the door opening to facilitate operations at the loading dock.
