Aluminum guide track for side mounted guide rollers. Typically used for gates that have an arched or decorative gate top, protruding pickets, barbed wire, or other top obstructions.
Heavy duty top guide assembly with 4 covered 1-1/2" diameter guide rollers, to guide the gate through the opening. Complies with ASTM F2200 and UL325 safety standards. Minimal forces act on the top guide, except for high wind variability. Two top guides are recommended in high wind conditions, privacy panel styles, and very heavy gates.
Side rollers are an alternative top guide. Useful especially when arched tops or other architectural features do not easily accommodate horizontal U-channels in the design.
