Choosing Sliding Security Gates
Your choice of sliding security gates is not a simple matter of measuring the space that needs to be closed off. There are technical factors as well as a message you want to send when you erect your security gate.
In the case of industrial sites, public works, prisons, and other dangerous places, the message should be “Keep out.” There is no need for fancy products, just straight lines and an effective electrical system. The typical material used for their construction is aluminum, though some components are made from stainless steel, especially the mechanical parts.
When an estate needs security but the owner wants beauty as well, he installs sliding security gates which are ornamental in some way. They feature powder coating in an attractive color, or they are rounded at the top with scroll corners. Perhaps metal has been shaped into initials or pictures between the bars. Spikes might proceed from the top of the upper bar, partly as a deterrent, but also because this creates the look of an antique like the gate in front of a historic mansion.
The rolling mechanism is controlled by an electrical system run on batteries or even solar power. If it does not enable a mid-flow reverse, then brakes are necessary. A remote control is usually provided. Installation will be done by a professional, or DIY assembly kits are available.
Consumers should note that warranties differ for each element of the sliding gate. They apply to the belt drive, mechanics, and electrical aspects of the system respectively.
