INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INTERLOCK INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
There are two kinds of interlocks that can be used on swing gates, depending on the
application and or local codes. Determine which style of interlock that will be installed
before proceeding further.
SOLENOID INTERLOCK
WARNING !
Never run the unit with the gates or doors open! The gates must
not open when the lift is in operation or when the platform is not
present. Should this condition exist, the interlock is not
functioning properly due to incorrect installation or damage.
This condition must be corrected immediately. Failure to correct
this condition may result in serious injury or death.

DANGER !
Qualified personnel only!! Only qualified
service personnel should perform procedures labeled as
“dangerous”!
The solenoid interlock can be used on both single and bi-parting swing gates.
Installation of the interlock and the gate status switch are to be accomplished after the
gate has been erected and secured in position. The following instructions are for both
left and right lock single panel gates as well as for the bi-parting gates.
Solenoid type interlocks will require the installation of a gate status switch. The purpose
of this switch is to “prove” that the gate is closed and in a position to accept the inter
lock bolt in the striker. Single swing gates require a single switch (see Figure 8).
Bi-parting gates require two switches, one for each panel (see Figure 9).
