Description

Bolton Gate Company has been manufacturing lift gates for over seventy years and has supplied thousands of mid bar gates on goods lifts throughout the world. 

 

Mid Bar Collapsible Gates are renowned for their strength and reliability which are features that rank highly when  considering the heavy usage that most goods lifts are subjected to.  

 

All the gates are bespoke and custom built to suit the individual opening. 

 

The compact bunching action ensures that they require very little space relative to the size of the opening and headroom requirements are minimal.


Operation

The Mid Bar Collapsible Gate is a manually operated gate system. Despite its robust construction, this heavy duty gate is easily pulled or pushed into the open and closed positions with the minimum of effort.

 

Gate Frame

The gates are constructed from 16mm double channel vertical steel pickets which are then connected by 6mm thick solid lattice bars working on a lazy tongue principal.

 

A full height mid bar is fitted between each set of pickets to reduce the gaps in line with lift legislation.

 

Leading Edge

The front picket assembly acts as the standard gate leading edge.

 

A reinforcing channel supplements the gate construction and also provides a mounting point when a holdback magnet device is required. 

 

The leading picket is also the mounting point for the optional car gate contact switch.

 

A No 1 pull handle is mounted to the second picket on the car side and a No 3 finger handle is mounted on the landing side.

 

Bottom Track

Malleable cast bottom guide pieces are attached to the base of each picket and run within a 26 x 26mm recessed galvanised steel bottom track.

 

Top Track

As standard, the gate is provided with a 90mm box type top track which, due to the intermediate fixing arrangement, supports the weight of the gate across the full span of the opening.

 

The alternative option is a bar top track which is fixed at each end. This bar is rounded on the upper edge to facilitate operation.

 

Finish

Galvanised as standard.
