Common Questions
How does the self-closing mechanism work?
The gate uses a spring-loaded hinge mechanism that automatically returns the gate to the closed position after each use. The spring tension is factory-set to close the gate reliably without slamming, ensuring the entrance remains secured at all times without requiring manual closing.
Is the Mechanical Self Closing Swing Gate ADA / AODA compliant?
Yes. The gate is designed to meet ADA and AODA accessibility requirements and is available in ADA-compliant widths to accommodate wheelchair users and individuals with mobility aids. Contact our team to confirm compliance for your specific application.
What is the emergency breakaway feature?
The emergency breakaway feature allows the gate to swing open freely in an emergency, even when the gate is in the closed position. This is a critical safety feature required by fire codes in many jurisdictions, ensuring occupants can exit quickly in an emergency.
Can this gate be combined with turnstile systems?
Yes. The Mechanical Self Closing Swing Gate is frequently installed alongside waist-high turnstile systems to provide an ADA-compliant bypass lane or staff-only access lane while maintaining security at the turnstile lanes.
What finish options are available?
The gate is available in multiple powder coat finishes and chrome hardware options (satin or mirror). Custom powder coat colours are available to match your facility's colour scheme or branding.
