Suitable for both cantilevered and bottom track type gates on industrial sites. Sliding gates are best suited to commercial applications as they are more evenly supported than swing gates. They also slide down a path adjacent to the traffic direction, making them easier to protect with safety devices and far less likely to suffer damage from vehicles and other elements.
The 0.55Kw inverter-driven motor is built to withstand the harshest conditions, with an electric brake as standard for positive locking of the gate. The hollow shaft gearbox enables slim-line construction of the gate motor, with a 29:1 ratio providing the torque required to operate gates up to 2 tonnes.
The Sliding Gate can be driven safely at higher speeds than a swing gate. Speeds of up to 800mm/second can be achieved safely with speed controllers that allow gates to accelerate and decelerate. If you need gates with higher speeds, you’ll need to look for trackless gates for safety reasons.
