01Model

What is this model for?

Because it opens by sliding along the garden wall, it needs no maneuvering space in front of or behind it; at sloping entrances and at villas where cars park in front of the gate, this is a clear advantage over a double-leaf swing gate. The frame is welded from box section, and the infill is made of horizontal slats. We can close the gaps between the slats or leave them open, depending on how much visibility and privacy you want. Anthracite gray is a neutral tone that sits well with both light-colored facades and dark stone cladding, and because it shows dust less than white, it needs less upkeep. The floor track is anchored into concrete; drainage along the track line and any level difference are measured during the site survey. In a sliding system the weight of the gate bears directly on the wheels and the track, so the profile thickness is engineered according to the gate width and the wind load. Provision is left so that a motor can also be added later.

Materials used

  • Box-section frame
  • Horizontal aluminum/steel slat infill
  • Galvanized track and wheels

Profile sections and infill divisions are engineered according to the opening width, wind load and type of use; the values listed here are not a fixed commitment.

03An honest note

When is this model not the right choice?

If there is no clear run along the garden wall for the gate to slide into, this model cannot be installed. And because it requires a floor track, at entrances where snow, leaves or sand keep building up, keeping the track clean becomes a maintenance burden; in that case a cantilever sliding gate (SM-VK003) runs more easily.

Selling the wrong model does nobody any good. Send us the measurements and a photo of the installation site; if this model does not fit, we will tell you which one does.

04Matching set

Models used together at the same entrance

Because the driveway gate, pedestrian gate and railing stand side by side at the same entrance, they are made with the same profile thickness and the same surface finish.

The width and height of the opening, the ground conditions and, if you have one, a photo of the installation site are enough. If a site survey is needed, we will let you know.
