SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR OPEN ROLLER GATES
AND ORNAMENT “GRILL TYPE” GATES

To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate:

• Install Warning signs on EACH side of gate in PLAIN VIEW.
• Permanently secure each Warning sign in a suitable

manner using fastening holes.

• Do NOT mount accessories that are accessible through

gate.

• Injuries occur when people get their hands or feet caught

between the top or bottom of the gate and the gate roller.
These potential pinch-points should be guarded against at all
times. Enclosed style gate tracks are available for refitting of
these rollers from many fence suppliers. Also, roller guards
are available for installing over the rollers.

• UL325 requires that, when used, contact sensors shall be

located at the leading edge, trailing edge, and be post
mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal
slide gate. Non-contact sensors such as photo eyes must
protect during both open and close gate cycles.

• Injuries occur when people put their hands and arms

through openings in the grill while the gate is operating.
They cannot retract their arm and it gets caught between the
moving gate grill and the stationary fence post or fence. This
potential hazard can be averted by placing a 4' screen mesh
on the gate to prevent access through openings anywhere
the gate may travel. See Safety Brochure for details.
To prevent entrapment injuries, mount controls at least 6'

from the gate or any moving parts of the gate.
