An automatic sliding gate is a type of gate that opens horizontally by sliding along a track or cantilever system, commonly used in residential, commercial, or industrial settings. Here's a basic overview to get you started:
It is difficult to pinpoint which type of door is safer. This is one of those situations where the answer comes down to the phrase “it depends.” It truly does depend on a number of factors, such as door maintenance, which is one of the most significant. It doesn’t matter which type of door it is both can be safe or unsafe based on the level of maintenance and repair it receives.
Gate Panel
Usually made of metal (steel/aluminum), wood, or composite materials.
Sliding Mechanism
Track system: Ground-mounted track on which wheels run.
Cantilever system: Suspended gate without a ground track—ideal for areas with debris or snow.
Motor/Operator
Drives the gate open and closed.
Operated by AC or DC current, often with backup batteries.
Control System
Remote controls, keypads, intercoms, or smartphone apps.
Can include timers, sensors, or automation (e.g., open at sunrise).
Safety Features
Infrared sensors or safety beams to prevent closing on a person or vehicle
Obstruction sensors to reverse or stop the gate.
Power Supply
Hardwired or solar-powered options.
Space-efficient compared to swing gates.
More secure and durable.
Works well on sloped driveways (unlike swing gates).
