Swing Gate Systems (Above-Ground and Underground)
We offer two different types of automation for Swing-Type Gates, an above-ground type or an underground option also.
The underground solution situated at the base of any gate piers or posts and flush with the driveway, is very neat, un-obtrusive, very popular and considered the most aesthetically-pleasing and discreet type of powered gate operator.
The above-ground solution is a gate-mounted operator expanding and contracting to push and pull the gate into the open and closed positions. It is also considered to be a better option on close-boarded gates because it is positioned across the gate leaf offering more strength on wider gates, in wind-affected areas.
Country Gates and Barriers offer a range of Automated Swing Gate Systems, hydraulic or electro-mechanical, dependant on exact requirements such as the amount of usage (i.e. average usage up to high intensity usage), as well as integrating a host of options to control the system, to tailor-make everything to suit exact requirements.
They include the following;
Voice/Video Intercom Access, Keypads, Vehicle Loop Detection, Remote Control Transmitters and much more.
Country Gates and Barriers are part of the DHF powered gate group and all of our Automated Gate installations comply with the following;
- Machine Directive – 2006/42/EC
- Radio Equipment Directive – 2014/53/EU
- Electro-Magnetic Compatibility Directive – 2014/30/EU
- CE marking regulations – BS EN 13241
In order to fully comply with all of the above, we install a number of safety devices to protect all users when being used. These include photocells and Category 3 monitored live safety edges to all points of entrapment, all of which allows us to Force-Test the gate, CE mark and issue Handover Certification on completion.
Sliding Gate Systems (Tracked and Cantilevered)
We offer two different types of automation for Sliding Gates, a “Tracked” or a “Cantilevered” option also.
The “Tracked” version is exactly that, a Track across the driveway & the full length of the opening to one side as well, for the Gate to run on wheels.
The “Cantilevered” version has no track in the ground whatsoever and instead a foundation block of concrete, outweighing the gate in the fully-opened is installed along with wheeled carriages to drive the Gate open and closed. This is a very popular model because there is no track to drive over.
