SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR OPEN ROLLER GATES
• 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' (1.2 m)
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' (1.8 m) from the gate or ANY moving parts of the
gate.
