DRIVER’S DOOR EDGE DAMAGE

A known risk in vehicle logistics

The driver’s door is the only one repeatedly opened throughout the entire vehicle logistics chain: once at the start and once at the end of every vehicle movement.

Many of these openings take place in confined spaces, leaving the door edge exposed to impacts and scuffs.

Quality teams, claims handlers and transport operators know this recurring type of damage well. Each incident triggers both a repair process and a claim, creating a disproportionate administrative workload and often leading to disputes and delays.

ADELCA helps reduce this risk with a padded, reusable and easy-to-use magnetic protector designed to safeguard the door edge without interfering with vehicle handling operations.

Multiple vehicle handling operations, various transport modes, same kind of damage.

Main Features

Each unit includes:

Calibrated Magnetic Hold

Available in two calibrated magnetic strength versions, enabling operators to select the most suitable option while maintaining secure attachment in any logistics environment.

Flexible Placement

The operator places the protector on the area of the door with the highest risk of impact, significantly increasing its protective effectiveness.

Technical Padded Material

Non-abrasive on contact, protecting the paint without scratching.

Ergonomic Design

It adapts to the operator’s movements without interfering with their work.

Reusable

The operator uses the same protector across all vehicles handled, allowing a single unit to protect thousands of movements.

Customizable Logo

Corporate customization with the option to include company colors and logos, reinforcing a professional and consistent brand image.

ADELCA XL

ADELCA also offers an XL version, specifically developed for the transport of vehicles in containers and ships.
This version is designed to adhere to the inner walls of the container or vessel, preventing direct contact between the vehicle door and the surrounding metal surfaces.

The XL version expands the functionality of the ADELCA system, providing a practical solution for more demanding environments where space is limited and the risk of lateral impact is higher.
With the same product philosophy — reusable, sustainable, and efficient — it adds an additional layer of safety for maritime and intermodal transport.

Magnetic Protectors vs Adhesive Foam Pads

ADELCA protections are fully compatible with traditional adhesive foam pads. In fact, using both together expands the protected surface and further reduces the risk of door impact.

However, from a sustainability, durability and efficiency perspective, ADELCA offers clear advantages over single-use adhesive pads, which generate waste and require ongoing replacement.
