The Daggers, looking for their third consecutive win, had the better of the opening exchanges and, but for brave defending from the visitors, could have gone ahead as Sam Saunders and Chris Moore both saw goal-bound shots brilliantly blocked.
The visitors nearly opened the scoring with ten minutes of the half remaining when a diagonal ball played in from the left by Clark Keltie was headed back by Julian Joachim into the path of Greg Blundell and, as Tony Roberts in the home goal came rushing out to clear, Blundell managed to poke the ball past him only for captain Anwar Uddin to clear the ball off the line.
Dagenham responded with a superb free-kick from Moore which clipped the roof of the net.
However, they went into the break behind when deep into first-half stoppage time, Keltie's free-kick wasn't properly cleared and, as it fell to captain Stephen Foster, he produced a stunning volley which gave Roberts no chance.
They should have doubled their leader only for two goalline clearances to prevent them.
First, Blundell's far-post header from Joachim's cross was blocked by Uddin, before Scott Griffiths somehow managed to clear Foster's angled drive.
Saunders then tested Andy Oakes with a fierce drive that the keeper turned away just moments before the Quakers doubled their lead.
Joachim claimed the assist as he darted down the right wing and picked out Blundell, who, when unmarked in the centre of the box, had time to control before lashing the ball home.
The points were made safe eight minutes from time when Foster picked out Wright and he showed great composure in lifting the ball over Roberts to make it three.
