Cantilever and Tracked Sliding Security Gates for Industrial Premises
When it comes to sliding security gates, property managers have two main options, and Nationwide Specialist Services has the expertise to supply, install and maintain both types at commercial and industrial sites throughout Old Eldon in Durham. Cantilever sliding gates are counterbalanced and operate without a ground track, instead featuring two sets of rollers connected to the bottom of the gate between two vertical steel posts. This design makes cantilever gates an excellent choice for high-frequency use and they are widely regarded as the preferred solution across a broad range of commercial and industrial premises where reliability and low maintenance are priorities. Where a track installation is appropriate, tracked sliding gates offer a dependable and cost-effective solution, with wheels at the base of the gate running smoothly along a track positioned across the gate opening. Proper and regular maintenance of the track, including keeping it well oiled and free from debris, is essential to ensure correct and consistent gate operation.
Automatic Electric Gates for Commercial and Industrial Security
24 Nationwide constructs all commercial automatic gates from the finest steel rectangular hollow sections, incorporating industrial bearing hinges to ensure that every gate delivers maximum strength, durability and reliable day-to-day performance. Our entire range is 100% duty rated and conforms with BS EN 12453 and current industry standards, providing property managers with the assurance of a fully certified, professionally installed automatic gate solution. For businesses in Old Eldon in Durham looking to improve site security, electric gates represent one of the most effective and cost-efficient solutions available. Automatic security gates prevent unauthorised persons from accessing your premises, protect car parks and enclosed sites from intruders, and serve as a strong visual deterrent that discourages would-be thieves and trespassers before any breach occurs. The installation of automatic gates also creates a more secure working environment, giving staff confidence that their vehicles and belongings are protected, which in turn supports a more productive workplace. With access control technologies such as RFID panels and ANPR available as standard integrations, automated gates also reduce the cost and complexity of managing site access.
