What are the benefits of Bay Door, Overhead Door Security Folding Gates?
The greatest benefit to using folding scissor gates for your business, school, institution, hospitals, malls, airports, and many more areas is how the perform while in use as barriers.

Often used as safety barriers or just to block off a designated area of unwanted traffic. This includes vehicles, machinery, warehouse traffic, and pedestrians.

What materials make up our Folding Security Gates?
Throughout the years of ongoing product development we have stamped our flagship folding security gates with 5/8″ by 5/8″ square tubing as we found 1/2″ steel couldn’t handle the years of wear and tear on wider gates, and first and foremost, the force to enter was to easy being weak. Our side rails then also went thicker to 14 gauge. Another addition we made necessary to secure folding door gates, was the hooklock mortise style assembly we build within our custom add on post to the gates. This adds much stronger security and style, unlike a jimmy proof knuckle lock which are not commercial rated. With ease of use to operate, and less chance of maintenance to the locks, as they are also re-keyable to existing locks and of commercial grade. 10 year warranty on all manufacturing.
