America’s Industrial Slide Gate – The Cantilever Slide Gate

The most widely specified and utilized engineered gate is the industrial slide gate.  This gate may refer to many different designs from a rolling gate with a V-groove bottom roller to an overhead slide gate.  If you have snow and ice, the most widely used and specified gate is a cantilever slide gate.  This system uses a series of stationery rollers to support the gate’s tail or counterbalance section while the gate’s opening remains cantilevered and extended through the opening.

The America’s Gate Cantilever Slide Gate (Citadel, Bastion, and Allure series) are systems designed for use in ornamental, commercial and industrial installations. With thousands of gates installed all over the United States, America’s Gate systems have been rigorously tested and are suitable for use in all weather, continuous duty applications.

Performance Characteristics

  1. Openings.  America’s Gate will design and manufacture gates that exceed openings greater than one hundred feet.
  2. Height.  Gate heights are endless.
  3. Weight.  Most chain link and ornamental slide gate weights are fully within the engineered design.  It is the custom ornamental gates with unique sheet steel designs and heavy adornments that created a challenge.  We engineer each gate’s structural design and truss system relative to the added weight.
  4. Infill.  Every industrial slide gate design is similar relative to supporting the gate through the opening.  It is the infill that is unique.  From chain link, vertical pickets, welded wire mesh and plasma cut sheet steel designs, we have you covered…and filled.
  5. Engineering.  Once the opening, height, infill and weight are selected, we engineer the design to support the cantilevered swing or slide gate.  We believe gates should be “wheel free.”  This means the gate is supported and relies solely on its hinge points or rollers.  No wheels are placed on the nose of the gate to support the weight.
  6. Finish.  All of our gates receive a pre-coated treatment ranging from chemical to media blasted.  Our finish coating ranges from powder coating to an HVLP painting process.  All of our coating processes have a twenty-year limited warranty.
  7. Material composition.  Fabricated from aluminum alloy extrusions for light weight and durability
