Cantilever Gates

Trackless commercial gate systems for industrial, public, education and private sites where debris, grade, heavy traffic or presentation make a conventional track the wrong answer.

When cantilever is the right gate type.

No ground track

The opening stays clear of track problems, debris build-up and track damage from frequent vehicle movement.

Heavy-duty access

Useful for depots, schools, utilities, industrial entrances and high-use commercial access points.

Security and presentation

Can be built as bar grille, sheeted, architectural, timber infill or project-specific perimeter work.

Serviceable system

Gate, operator, controls, safety devices and maintenance plan are selected together, not as separate afterthoughts.

Materials and finishes.

Duragal steel square sections

Duragal steel

A practical structure option for robust commercial gates.

Brushed stainless steel finish

Stainless steel

Used where corrosion resistance and a cleaner finish matter.

Aluminium gate sections

Aluminium

Lightweight gate construction for selected architectural and operational needs.

Timber infill battens

Timber infill panels

Warmth and screening where the gate needs to work with surrounding architecture.

Perforated architectural metal

Architectural materials

Project-specific visual finishes for high-profile or private entrances.

Textured powder-coated finish samples

Finish systems

Duragal, powder coat over Duragal, hot dip galvanised, powder coat over galvanising, or 2-pack painted finish.

Drive systems matched to the gate.

Motor capacity, speed and controls are selected around gate weight, traffic levels and the available power supply.

Integrated device options.

A cantilever gate is usually part of a bigger access system. The gate, motor, controller, safety devices and access hardware need to be specified together.

Safety and sensing

Loop detectors, photoelectric beams, light curtains, safety edges and flashing indicators.

Access control

Remote controls, wireless keypads, intercoms, RFID, proximity cards, biometric access and app control.

Site resilience

Battery backup, fire alarm integration, lock hardware, tamper-resistant housing and weatherproof enclosures.

Installed cantilever gates need proof at full scale.
