Electrically operated bi-folding gates suitable for car park entrances, especially where room is limited.
Features and benefits:
- Suitable for securing car park entrances whilst also providing the maximum amount of ventilation necessary to allow exhaust fumes to escape.
- The leaf design is available in a standard format or purpose-made to suit individual clients’ requirements, to interface with and complement external building cladding features.
- Simple operation, avoiding the high maintenance costs associated with cables, springs, bottom tracks etc.
- Particularly suited to situations where side-, head- or back-room rule out rolling, overhead, hinged or sliding gates.
- Gates are sideways opening - the leading edges are in constant view and therefore less prone to damage from vehicles passing through the opening.
