Frequently Asked Questions
TYMETAL has been in the perimeter security solutions market since 1985. With more than three decades of experience designing, manufacturing, and installing the Securfold Trackless Bi-Folding Gate and Operator System, we have encountered many questions along the way. Explore a few of the common questions we are asked below. If you don’t find the answers you’re looking for, feel free to contact us by phone at 888-978-4283 or online.
How does the SecurFold bi-fold speed gate differ from swing or slide gates in cycle time?
The TYMETAL SecurFold bi-fold gate folds in the center as it opens, allowing it to clear the lane in a fraction of the time required by a full-panel swing or slide gate. This rapid cycle capability makes it ideal for high-traffic commercial and industrial entrances where minimizing vehicle queue time is a priority without sacrificing access control security.
What safety certifications does the TYMETAL SecurFold system meet?
The SecurFold bi-fold speed gate is designed to comply with UL 325 and ASTM F2200 standards governing automated vehicular gate construction and operator safety. The system incorporates entrapment protection devices, reversing sensors, and safety edge systems required under these standards to protect pedestrians and vehicles during gate operation.
How is preventive maintenance handled for the SecurFold high-cycle speed gate?
Preventive maintenance for the SecurFold includes regular inspection and lubrication of the folding hinge mechanism, drive system, and guide rollers. Safety devices should be tested monthly, and the folding panel alignment should be checked to ensure consistent closure and seal. High-cycle installations benefit from a scheduled service program to maximize uptime and component service life.
What industries most commonly use TYMETAL bi-fold speed gates for controlled access?
TYMETAL SecurFold bi-fold speed gates are commonly deployed at commercial distribution centers, parking facilities, industrial plants, airports, and corporate campuses where rapid, reliable vehicle access control is required. Their combination of speed and security makes them well-suited for any high-throughput entry point where traditional gate cycle times create operational bottlenecks.
