For swing gates, Asset Fencing offer a selection of swing gate equipment classified under the headings: ‘Electro-Mechanical’ and ‘Electro-Hydraulic’.
Electro-Mechanical equipment is generally designed for the domestic user and has a duty cycle which suits family residences and entrances that are not busy throughout the day.
Electro-hydraulic equipment is generally designed for a higher duty cycle and is suitable for busy entrances and prestige gates. Our hydraulic gate equipment is fully serviceable and, if properly maintained, will give many years of reliable service.
As an alternative to swing gates, sliding gates offer a number of advantages over swing gates and are generally the more popular choice in mainland Europe. Why ..?
A sliding gate does not need the space that a swing gate requires to open. This leaves the full length of the driveway usable for parking vehicles (useful where space is restricted.). A closed sliding gate offers better resistance to being forced than a pair of swing gates and therefore higher security. Additionally, sliding gates will work across an upward sloping driveway where a pair of swing gates would not open inward.
“Other products from the BFT range include rising bollards and car park barriers” added Stuart. “These extend our current offering of wooden and steel fencing, window grilles, CCTV installation, monitoring and maintenance, crash barriers, car park and building access control solutions, anti-ram raid barriers, security lighting and window hoardings as well as temporary event security fencing.”
