Selection Assistance
Choosing the right folding gate depends on your specific needs. Here are a few tips to help guide your selection:
- Measure Your Opening: Single gates cover up to 12 feet. For wider spaces, consider a pair of folding gates.
- Determine Mounting Location: Decide whether you’ll mount the gate inside the jamb, face-mounted, or between posts.
- Consider Usage Frequency: If the gate will be opened and closed frequently, the 180° pivot and caster support make operation smooth and efficient.
- Think About Environment: Galvanized steel is ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, but powder-coated options are available for added visibility or branding.
