Safety Information for Slide Gate Operators

Physical Stop

Positive stops shall be required
to limit travel to the designed
fully open and fully closed
positions. These stops shall be
installed either at the top of the
gate, or at the bottom of the
gate where such stops shall
horizontally or vertically project
no more than is required to
perform their intended function.

Physical Stops

Permanently mounted and easily

visible from either side of the gate.

Warning Signs

Non-Contact Sensors (Photo Sensors)

1

2

Minimizes the potential of the gate closing on vehicular or
other traffic that loops cannot sense. It can be installed on the
secure OR non-secure side of gate.

Helps minimize the potential of entrapment during the back
travel of the gate.

Entrapment protection devices are required to reduce the risk of injury.
Install sensors where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists while
gate is moving. Individual requirements will vary. See pages 26-29 for
more information on typical layout locations and setup.

Contact Sensor (Reversing Edges)

A

Minimizes the potential of the gate closing on vehicular
or other traffic that loops cannot sense.

Installed on the fence to help minimize the potential of
entrapment between the gate and fence. A filler post or
barrier MAY need to be installed between fence and gate.

B

C

Helps minimize the potential of entrapment during the
back travel of the gate.

Guide Rollers

See previous page for more information.
