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 Services we supply and install both cantilever and tracked sliding gate systems for clients across Startforth in Durham. 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
At Nationwide FM, all of our commercial automatic gates are constructed from the finest steel rectangular hollow sections and use industrial bearing hinges to deliver outstanding strength, durability and long-term reliability. Every gate in our range is 100% duty rated and conforms with the latest industry standards, including BS EN 12453, giving property managers complete confidence in the safety and performance of their gate system. Electric security gates can significantly increase the security of your business premises, preventing unauthorised access to car parks, loading bays and enclosed sites, and acting as a powerful deterrent to would-be intruders, helping to prevent break-ins and theft before they occur. The installation of automatic gates also brings invaluable peace of mind, ensuring that your perimeter is secure around the clock and allowing your staff to work with the confidence that their vehicles and belongings are safe. Furthermore, automated gate systems are far more convenient than their manual counterparts, reducing the need for security personnel by controlling access through technologies such as RFID security panels and ANPR across sites throughout Startforth in Durham.
