Commercial Electric Sliding Gates & Telescopic Gates

Different Types of Electric Sliding Gates

Single-leaf Sliding Gates

Single-leaf sliding gates consist of a single panel that slides horizontally to open or close the entrance. These gates are suitable for narrower openings and are often used in residential settings or areas with small spaces.

Bi-parting Sliding Gates

Bi-parting sliding gates feature two panels that slide away from each other to create an opening. These gates are ideal for wider entrances and provide enhanced security and accessibility compared to single-leaf gates.

Telescopic Sliding Gates

Telescopic sliding gates are designed to retract into themselves when opening, minimizing the space required for operation. They are an excellent choice for locations with limited space or where aesthetics are a concern.

Cantilever Sliding Gates

Cantilever sliding gates are supported by rollers attached to a counterbalance frame, allowing the gate to slide horizontally without the need for a track along the ground. A cantilever gate is ideal for uneven terrain or locations where ground track installation is not feasible, while a tracked system is better suited to sites with a level floor. One example is a gravel site, where a cantilever sliding gate can avoid many of the maintenance issues that affect ground tracks. A level floor is essential for tracked sliding gates to operate properly.

Bi-folding Sliding Gates

Bi-folding sliding gates consist of multiple panels that fold horizontally as the gate opens, creating a compact stack when fully open. These gates are suitable for entrances with limited lateral space and offer a sleek and modern appearance.

Make Vehicle Access Security Simple with Sliding Gates

The heavy-duty cantilevered and tracked automatic gates provide the optimum solution for vehicle entrance control at high-security locations or facilities which experience a high level of vehicle movements. These commercial electric sliding gates are suited to commercial premises such as warehouses, logistics facilities and car parks, helping manage vehicles at busy sites. They are also a perfect security solution for commercial properties, offering 24-hour security control and being difficult to force open or tamper with.

Gates are manufactured to suit customers’ requirements, and sizes from 2m up to 12m in width and 3.5m in height are available as fully automated or manually operated types, including for large openings. Automatic sliding options can be installed to suit higher-traffic entrances where operational efficiency matters.

The infill design of gates can be modified to reflect the needs of individual projects, and decorative or timber-clad designs can be incorporated where the standard vertical bar infill is not required. Gate design can also be tailored beyond standard designs to suit premises, including aesthetic appeal and branding requirements.

The automated UR500 gates feature inverter-driven, three-phase motors paired with a rack and pinion final drive system. This provides smooth operation and variable speed functions on the sliding gate. The motor is a reliable component selected to suit gate weight and repeated use, with oil bath protection where required. Standard safety features include fully compliant systems such as Category 3 safety edges and dual photocells. Obstacle detection and access control can be integrated for safer, more controlled gate opening and closing. Our safety systems are continually updated to maintain compliance with evolving legislation.

These heavy-duty applications are ideal for securing industrial sites and suit industrial applications across different environments. Their durability and high-quality steel construction make them well suited to electric gates used on demanding sites, while keeping maintenance needs low for minimal maintenance.

Complete PLC control of the gate, with custom-designed in-house software, allows us to tailor the settings of our sliding electric gate systems to meet the specific operational needs of each customer. A full site survey is carried out before manufacture so we can specify, supply and install each system to match the site and the available space on one side for the gate leaf.
