Installaon Instrucons for Oponal Gate Edges
The process for installing oponal resisve safety edges supplied by Wallace Perimeter Security at me of
gate order is described below.
The 8.2 kΩ output goes dead short (closed circuit) when acvated. However, for UL compliance control
electronics will output a N.C. contact or voltage signal to the gate controller. An edge sensor converter kit/
wireless link kit may be supplied by Wallace Perimeter Security to fulll this requirement.
For installaon of other gate edge types, follow the manufacturer’s instrucons. The best way to ensure
a quality installaon is to employ a professional installer experienced with gate edge sensors.
Installaon of Resisve Gate Edges (8.2 kΩ terminang resistor)
1. The sensing edges consist of 1 gate edge rubber secon and 1 vercal secon for each gate
panel set. Along with each rubber secon there will be an accompanying aluminum channel
secon of the same length.
In a single bi-fold SpeedGate there will be a total of 1 horizontal secon. In a double bi-fold gate
there will be a total of 2 horizontal secons.
2. Securely fasten the aluminum channel to the gate panel leading edge, using the provided self-
tapping screws.
A hole must be drilled ½” (12.7mm) in size 1” (25.4mm) from the end of each side of the
aluminum channel into the gate frame. See Figure 16.
For UL 325 compliance, all external
entrapment protecon sensors
must have N.C. sensor outputs for
monitoring and powering purposes.
Deacvate gate during installaon.
