Today sliding gates in Krasnodar can be found on the territory of many residential buildings and
office buildings. These models are confidently gaining popularity, although they are still inferior in number to swing gates, since they are much cheaper. Installation of swing models requires additional components, but it solves the problem with a lack of space - when opening, the swing gate leaf slides sideways, without creating a so-called "dead zone".
Benefits of sliding gates
1. Saving space and rational use of even a small area.
2. Sliding gates do not require regular cleaning of the area in front of them, for smooth operation.
3. The gate opens silently and does not require any special maintenance. It is enough to occasionally wipe the mechanism with a damp cloth.
Types of sliding gates
1. Cantilever gates. This type of structure requires more free space than other types, the sash in length must exceed the opening. This structure moves along fixed rails outside the opening.
2. Rail model. Takes up less space compared to cantilever doors due to the movement along the bottom rail, which runs parallel to the entire length of the structure.
3. Suspended type of construction. This model is comparable in size to the rail view, however, it differs in that it does not require maintenance of the lower part of the structure in contact with the ground, since the movement occurs thanks to the mechanisms fixed at the top.
Sliding gates can be covered with metal sheets, wood panels, corrugated board or polycarbonate.
Automatic and mechanical sliding structures
Models of sliding gates can be either mechanical, that is, manually opening, or automatic, equipped with a remote control mechanism. Automatically rolling gates are very convenient and practical as they allow you to enter and leave the territory, without leaving the car, just use the remote control. The possibility of remote control is provided by the presence of electric drives that are installed in the gate. When choosing automatic sliding gates, you need to take into account their length, weight and intensity of work in order to find the best option. Mechanical gates are considered more reliable, since when moving, two blocks of rollers move in a profile beam are involved.
