Selection Assistance
Start by measuring your space to determine the coverage required. Base gates extend from 6 to 12 feet, and add-on gates can be used to increase coverage in 6-foot increments, offering flexible solutions for larger areas.
Consider portability if your facility layout changes frequently. These gates roll easily and store compactly, making them ideal for dynamic environments where quick setup and relocation are essential.
Assess your security needs to ensure proper protection. You can add drop pins for extra stability, and powder-coated finishes are available to enhance visibility or align with your branding.
Finally, plan for storage. When not in use, the gates collapse and fit through standard doorways, allowing for easy and efficient stowaway without taking up valuable space.
