Cantilever and Tracked Sliding Security Gates for Industrial Premises
Sliding security gates are among the most popular automated access solutions for commercial and industrial sites, and at Nationwide FM we supply and install both cantilever and tracked sliding gate systems for clients across Palacehow in Cumbria. Cantilever sliding gates are designed without the need for a ground-level track, instead relying on a counterbalanced construction with two sets of rollers connecting the gate to two vertical steel posts. This means the gate slides freely without contact with the ground surface, making cantilever gates the preferred choice for high-frequency commercial and industrial use where track wear or ground irregularities could present operational challenges. For sites where a track is practical, tracked sliding gates provide an equally effective solution, with the gate running on wheels along a fixed track across the opening. To ensure tracked gates operate correctly over the long term, it is essential that the track is kept well oiled and cleared of any debris that could obstruct smooth gate movement.
Automatic Electric Gates for Commercial and Industrial Security
Nationwide FM 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 Palacehow in Cumbria 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.
