DSMW ShieldLine™ / Stainless Facility Protection

Stainless Facility Protection Built to Take the Hit

DSMW ShieldLine™ provides custom stainless wall guards, corner guards, bumper rails, column wraps, and impact protection systems for commercial, industrial, pharmaceutical, food production, healthcare, and high-traffic facility environments.

Repeated wall, corner, column, and utility damage costs facilities time, money, and appearance. ShieldLine™ turns vulnerable areas into clean, durable, professional-grade protection systems fabricated by Dericks Sheet Metal Works.

The Problem

Stop Repairing the Same Damage Over and Over

Busy facilities take a beating. Carts, pallet jacks, cleaning equipment, maintenance tools, mobile racks, beds, bins, and daily traffic can quickly damage walls, corners, doors, columns, and exposed utilities.

DSMW ShieldLine™ is designed for facilities that need a cleaner, stronger, and more permanent solution than patching drywall, repainting block walls, replacing FRP, or adding temporary protection after the damage is already done.

Common Problem Areas

  • Damaged hallway walls and production corridors
  • Beat-up outside corners
  • Exposed columns and column edges
  • Dented doors and frames
  • Vulnerable utility lines and wall-mounted equipment
  • Cart traffic areas
  • Maintenance rooms and mechanical spaces
  • Washdown, food production, and clean support areas
  • Loading, receiving, and warehouse traffic zones
The Product Line

ShieldLine™ Product Systems

Each ShieldLine™ system can be fabricated to standard sizes or custom-built around your facility conditions. DSMW can field measure, fabricate, finish, and install protection that fits the space instead of forcing a generic catalog part into a custom problem.
