Korean Airlines Bi-fold Gate manufactured and installed by Frontier Pitts Ltd

The popular bi-folding speed gate is a fast acting security gate which is ideal for sites where there is a limited area for the gate to open and close.Bi-folding gates are available in various models including overhead track, bottom track or trackless.Manual or Automatic Bi-folding Gate models available.

Automatic Bi-folding Gates are powered by actuators.For our full range of actuators, please see our Actuator page

As the Service Yard entrance was very limited for space and HGV’s would still require access, bi-folding gates were the perfect solution to ensure the gates took up the least space whilst in the open position.A traffic light system was mounted on the wall next to the bi-folding gates as visibility on site is also restricted.

At Frontier Pitts, we highly recommend safety features are fitted to your automated gate to comply to safety standards and alleviate the dangers associated with automatic gates. Safety devices on this installation include vehicle detector loops, safety edges and photocells.
