CGS-350.8G
DuraGates CGS-350.8G, Grande Carriage, Monobloc Body
This cantilever gate hardware model is recommended for large and heavy industrial or commercial sliding gates, especially in high traffic applications.
Hardware
Heavy duty 8 wheel carriages with sealed bearings. Large pivot allows for increased weight capacity, smooth sliding and stability. Larger wheel dimensions increase the weight capability and reduce wear and tear between wheels and tracks.
Build the gate right on the track. Galvanized steel track’s structural properties allow high loads without distortion. The track is made from low carbon steel alloy for excellent weldability. Available in 20’ and 10’ lengths.
The End Wheel bolts into each end of the track and complies with UL325 safety code for automated gates. It gives a finished look and prevents dirt, snow, etc. from getting inside the track and interfering with the operation of the carriages. The wheel allows the gate to roll into the bottom end cup without scraping the paint or galvanized…
he End Stopper bolts into each end of the track and complies with UL325 safety code for automated gates. It gives a finished look and prevents dirt, snow, etc. from getting inside the track and interfering with the operation of the carriages.
This cup receives the track in either the closed or open position. The beveled leading edge allows for a smooth entry and stop. The cup holds the gate steady, reducing vibrations from wind conditions, etc., and prolongs the life of the carriages and gate operators.
The lower gate receiver will support the gate in the open or closed position while it rests on a nylon roller.
Galvanized J-Bolts are set into the concrete pad as it is poured. Once it has cured, the carriages are then secured to the pad using these bolts. J-Bolts are the preferred method of anchoring the carriages to the concrete pad. Wedge anchors with two-part epoxy will work but need to be sized to each load according to manufacturer’s recommendations.
The foundation plate provides a solid base for leveling the carriage on the pad. It prevents the leveling screws from digging into the pad and causing long term alignment issues. By keeping the carriage bottom from being in direct contact with the concrete pad, it slows down corrosion effects.
