Fortress Standard Overhead Slide Gate is used in situations where there is not enough room for full movement of a cantilever gate.
Fortress Overhead Slide Gates may be hung from a wall, an overhead structure, or from standard 4" OD support posts. Clearances ranging from 14 feet to 18 feet above grade are typical.
Overhead slide gates are fabricated from 6063-T6 aluminum alloy extrusions. The primary members (top and bottom) are "P" shaped in cross section with no less than 2" on a side. The outside vertical members are 2"x2" in cross section. The gate includes cross bracing for 3/16" minimum diameter stainless steel cable to assure squareness of the gate frame. Bottom guides are provided and are located at the bottom of the gate at the center support post. A minimum of two self-aligning, 4-wheeled, sealed lubricant, ball-bearing truck assemblies are provided with each gate.
