gated communities, condominium and apartment complexes, ranches and businesses.
A Few Gate Types
Gates are used in conjunction with a fence system by a variety of residential and business applications to provide and control access to particular areas. They play an important role in a security system.
Swing gates – This style is available in double or single drive applications, and requires two gate operators (one for each side.)
Cantilever gates – These gates use a counter-balance load bearing design to support the entire weight of the gate as it reaches across the entryway.
Rolling gates – This style uses a wheel to support the weight on a v-track embedded in a driveway.
What to Know
A number of factors must also be considered, such as:
- How will the property be entered?
- What access control will be used – radio controlled, telephone entry, or card reader?
- How will people exit?
