Gates & Barrier Automation
Gates and barrier automation systems are widely used in the UK for enhancing security, controlling access, and improving traffic management. Here’s an overview:
Types of Automated Gates and Barriers
- Swing Gates: These can be automated either above-ground or underground. Underground systems are popular for their discreet appearance, while above-ground systems are often used for their strength 1.
- Sliding Gates: These can be tracked or cantilevered. Tracked systems have wheels running on a track, while cantilevered systems use a foundation block and wheeled carriages 1.
- Rising Bollards: These are used to control vehicle access and can be automated to rise and lower as needed.
- Automatic Barriers: These are used in parking facilities and other controlled access areas to manage vehicle flow.
Benefits of Automation
- Security: Automated gates and barriers provide robust security by restricting unauthorized access.
- Convenience: Automation allows for easy access control with features like remote controls and intercom systems.
- Safety: Safety features such as photocells and monitored safety edges ensure safe operation.
- Aesthetics: Underground systems and well-designed barriers can enhance the appearance of a property.
