MADE TO ORDERBUILT TO LAST Our Sliding Gates are manufactured from 6063 T5 Aluminium and Powder Coated using Powder Coating for superior strength and corrosion resistance.
Sliding Gates are typically manufactured using 50 x 50mm frames, with a design pattern to be specified. Gate Posts are required on either side of the gate and we can assist in the selection of appropriate hardware to suit the size and weight of the gates.
SETUP & OPERATION Sliding gates require several extra components for safe and reliable operation. Guide Posts are positioned at the back of the gate on either side; one to support the gate whilst it slides, and the other to support the gate in the closed position. The gate operates on an aluminium track, with 90mm wheels inserted in the bottom rail. The gate sits a total of 40mm from the ground so this needs to be allowed for when determining the gate height. See link below for detailed drawing on how sliding gates are typically set up and operated.
