Swing Gates
Providing a high level of safety and security, swing gates are most efficient in residential applications where traffic flow is minimal. However, swing gates require particular attention in regards to motorization. Quality of gate, posts, hinges and alignment is essential for the correct operation of your automatic gate. Our experienced staff will help you to choose the right product for your swing gate.
Here are the products we recommend depending on the size and weight and purpose of your gate:.
| Residential gates | Commercial/industrial | Premium | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small to medium sized gate | Medium to large sized gate | Heavy duty applications | Underground automation |
| Obbi | Obbi Luxo 3BH & Luxo 5BH | Luxo 3BH & Luxo 5BH | |
| Facil | Arc | Arc | Cubic |
| R3 | R3 and R5 | R5 | |
