To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate:
• Entrapment protection devices MUST be installed to protect anyone who may come near a moving gate.
• Locate entrapment protection devices to protect in BOTH the open and close gate cycles.
• Locate entrapment protection devices to protect between moving gate and RIGID objects, such as posts or walls.
• A swinging gate shall NOT open into public access ways.
Contact Sensors (Edge Sensors)
Install edge sensors to protect against any entrapment or safety
conditions encountered in your gate application.
See Entrapment Protection Devices.
Safety loops allows the gate to stay open when vehicles are
obstructing the gate path. Suggested for vehicles 14 feet or
longer. If a vehicle is shorter, a center loop is recommended and
should be installed.
A center loop protects during the Close cycle of a gate. Safety
loops are required when using a center loop.
See Loop Wiring.
