NEW KIT FOR SECTIONAL SLIDING GATES

 NEW KIT FOR SECTIONAL SLIDING GATES

Radius is the latest innovation in the field of sliding gates.

Designed by FAC to optimise available spaces, it’s the ideal kit to implement gates that can exploit perimeter spaces thanks to the rail and special swivelling wheels that allow sliding on a curve.

A spokesperson commented: “The success of Radius has prompted FAC to improve this solution. Reverse Radius is the new FAC solution for sectional gates, specifically designed to achieve maximum opening range in limited spaces with a reduced footprint.

“FAC offers 7 predefined kit solutions, with opening and footprint dimensions calculated to allow maximum access clearance.

“Choosing a kit is simple: depending on the total available space, the most suitable kit can be selected.

“The kits allow for openings from 2.5 m up to 6.0 m, with a set number of leaves and measurements. The space allocated to the curve area is minimised, allowing 80% of the available space to be used for the opening.

“The Radius kit is ideal to take advantage of new spaces with all the features of sliding gates.

A system that furthermore guarantees high performance and maximum freedom, since it manages to exploit angles and curves and is perfectly suitable for installing in tight spaces. Classic cases where a hinged gate would be cumbersome.”

Each kit contains all the components to structure your sectional gate:

  • Dedicated hinges that allow to join leaves
  • Special curved rail that allows corners to be exploted
  • 360° swivelling wheel that allows it to slide on a curved rail
  • Guide Plate and limit stop.

The rails can be installed along walls, fences and buildings, allowing for considerable space saving.

Moreover, the special wheels of Radius are equipped with a damped compensation system that allows them to remain in contact with the rail, preventing gate derailment even in case of ground unevenness.
