Now offered by Continental Door, this product line supports compliance-driven environments where cleanliness, safety and efficiency matter most.

The bug barriers are commonly installed at dock doors, dumpster enclosures and warehouse openings where traditional solid doors restrict airflow and visibility.
As a dock door bug screen, the bug barrier system supports sanitation while maintaining access for forklifts, pallet jacks and personnel. Flexible fiberglass wind bars and reinforced bottom profiles maintain contact with the floor, even in uneven conditions. For more customization, screen and wind bar color options allow facilities to match branding or visibility requirements.
Solutions for Every Traffic Level
Continental Door Co. offers multiple configurations of industrial bug screen doors to match how your facility operates:
- Manual roll-up bug barriers: A spring-loaded system or optional chain hoist for reliable operation at low-traffic openings.
- Automatic roll-up bug barriers: Powered by in-tube motors and designed for low- to medium-cycle applications where convenience is essential.
- High-cycle roll-up bug barriers: Built for high-traffic dock doors, offering faster opening speeds and higher daily cycle ratings. These models include open, close and stop controls, automatic timers and monitored photo eyes for added safety.
