A deck bar is dropped in front of the freight. Any empty space can be filled by air bags.

The security divider wall is then installed in front of the deck bar. 

Driver securing security divider straps

Straps are used to secure the divider wall in place.

A seal is put through the handles of the security divider wall for transit to the destination.

At the time of delivery, the seal is cut and removed in the presence of the consignee.
