Gates



Sliding Gates

Electric gates are an easy way to ensure the security of private premises and can be used for all sized properties. Electric gates, though not very commonplace at the moment, have found their niche in the market today. For those who find the security of their premises (be it residential or commercial) important, electric gates are the way to go. There is a decrease in the cost of electric gate kits and their installation. Aside from the basic kits, there are now many features that can be added to ensure security as well as make them more convenient. Automated gates are classed as machines and care should be taken to ensure they have the correct safety features / and are regularly maintained.



Swing Gates

Swing gates swing open like the door to your bedroom or bathroom might, simply opening inward or outward. Swing gates can use three types of operators. A swing arm operator, which is a box, that sits off to the side and has an arm extending to the gate. A ram arm is located on the gate and post and uses either a hydraulic piston or a jackscrew-operated piston. Underground operators are located by the hinge and operate the gate via a link arm.



Boom Gates

Automatic boom gates are a traditional choice for traffic barrier and security gate applications, and still offer a cost effective solution where a high daily cycle rate is required - but where vandalism resistance and gate strength are not prime requirements.
