What is a Bullet Series Cantilever Gate?

The ultimate guide to the Bullet Series Cantilever gate and why they’re an ideal choice for your commercial property.

When it comes to enhancing the security of your property, choosing the right gate is crucial. Cantilever gate systems are becoming increasingly popular for commercial and industrial properties, due to their smooth operation, durability and minimal maintenance requirements. In this blog, we detail what cantilever gates are, the benefits, safety features, and why they might be the best fit for your commercial property. 

Cantilever Gate, What is a cantilever gate, cantilever gate systemWhat is a Cantilever Gate?

A cantilever gate is a type of sliding gate that operates without the need for a ground mounted track system. Instead, these gates are made slightly longer than the opening width and supported by rollers mounted onto a post either side, allowing it to slide open and closed whilst remaining supported and counterbalanced off the ground. This ensures the gate remains operational even with challenges such as unsealed driveways prone to debris buildup or uneven ground. 

What are the benefits of a Bullet Series Cantilever Gate? 

Durable and Secure 

Bullet Series gates are manufactured from heavy-duty steel and aluminium, which makes them extremely durable and tamper-resistant, providing an ideal solution for securing properties from unauthorised entry. 

Low Maintenance and Safe 

Cantilever gates have no tracks installed in the ground, which means there is no risk of buildup of debris, or derailing resulting in injury or damage. These gates are completely suspended off the ground!  

These gates are extremely low maintenance, only needing to be lubricated and serviced once per year. 

High Speed!

These gates can operate at some seriously quick speeds. Operating at up to 2m/s depending on your requirements, making this cantilever gate a serious contender in the market today.

Smooth Operation 

Without the ground track, these gates offer smooth and reliable operation. As mentioned above, this is beneficial in those environments where debris could affect movement along a track system. 

Versatile 

These gates can be customised to fit a large variety of applications and tailored to meet your specific needs and aesthetic preferences. 

Space Saving 

Cantilever gates do not require large clearances to operate like swing gates for instance.  They slide along the fence line, making them perfect for properties with space limitations or those properties where maximising the usable area is crucial. 

What are the safety features of a Bullet Series Cantilever Gate? 

Dor-Gate Cantilever Gates are equipped with a variety of safety features to prevent accidents and enhance security for your premises such as our Bullet Series high speed cantilever gate. Let’s look at these features below:

Safety Sensors

Preventing accidents is key which is why these gates have been designed to include photo beams, vehicle loops and traffic signals to ensure obstacles are detected, preventing the gate from closing on vehicles or pedestrians.

Pedestrian Opening

Our gates have the option to add a pedestrian feature which opens 1 metre to allow pedestrian access only.

Seamless Integration

Our gates are easily integrated into your existing access control systems. Talk to us today for further information.

Back-up Power

A 24 VDC Battery Backup is an excellent feature ensuring secure access even with mains failure.

Speed

The Darte Series operates at a slower speed of up to 800mm/s while our Bullet Series high speed gate can operate at speeds of up to 2m/s. The rapid operation of these gates ensures enhanced efficiency, security, and reduced wait times making them the perfect choice for high-traffic environments.
