Automatic Gates from CDA Alliance links to categories from Sliding Gates to Swinging Gates. The most common forms of access control that you see every day are in developments for residential communities and are most commonly used in gate systems for traffic control. These kinds of access control systems are used generally with telephone entry and transponders mounted in cars, to open up the gate systems, as well as using remotes and bar code readers. There are wide varieties of automatic gate systems for light duty traffic control all the way up to community access.
Sliding Gates
Sliding Gates are sometimes the only option for openings that require no real estate to be used. They are also used for extensive spans. Sliding Gates are a very valuable security component for strength, the ability to span long distances and for applications where there is little or no extra real estate to be used.
Our technicians can service or install most brands including Elite, Door King, FAAC and many more. Sliding Automatic Gates must be installed according to ANSI, (American National Standards Institute) to be qualified under the UL, (Underwriters Laboratory) testing procedures. These standards must be adhered to, especially for safety reasons.
Swinging Gates
Swinging Gates are the most popular kind of automatic gates. The reliability and safety features are the best of the strong access control gate systems.
Barrier Gates
Barrier Gates are used for most ‘Guard Gate’ applications because of the need for speed over security. They are primarily used to control traffic movement. The arm or ‘barrier’ itself is designed to break off, to prevent major damage from occurring to the gate controller.
