Bow door

Bow Door:
The bow door is a large door located at the bow (front) of the vessel, commonly used on Ro-Ro (Roll-on/Roll-off) ships. It opens and closes to allow vehicles and cargo to embark and disembark from the ship. Structurally, it must be very strong because it acts as part of the ship's hull and must ensure watertight integrity under sea conditions. For safety, it is equipped with locking systems, sealing systems, and various safety devices. Some bow doors are single-leaf, while others are double-leaf.
