A great safe telescopic gate installed by the gates team. Safety is our focus along with security with this machine. We call it a machine, because that’s what it’s defined as under safety laws. Installed are 7x resistive safety edges to all shear, crush and impact points on the machine. They provide either an immediate stop or a stop and short reversal depending on settings. Reducing very likely crushing and Guillotine risks to very unlikely. This is rarely seen in Australia due to the absence of clear guidelines around safety in gates and automation and what to do to control them. This is common practice and standard in the EU and UK. In addition to this, ideals internal requirement of no single point failure is provided in both automated and manual operation. What this translates to in this gate is: 1- Double twin rollers with internal catch plates between guide angles and brackets. 2- Anti lift brackets to both leafs. 3- Substantial physical overrun prevention devices. These additional layers of safety mean that in a failure of one or many components, the gates still cannot separate from themselves causing a catastrophic failure, injury or death. This is rarely seen in Australia outside of a few expert companies in the business. This is not provided with any standard telescopic hardware and must be custom fabricated. In an effort to lift the bar for all, along with our trusted peers at Fencing Industry Australia we hope to have a Code of Practice out very shortly to clear it all up.
Fantastic work by the team away in Canberra this week! Ideal designed, manufacture, delivered, installed and automated this 8m clear 3m high 358 Telescopic sliding gate. Gate powered by the best in biz Benincà Australia Benincà Group Bison 25. Safety beams, lights and 7x Safety Edges all fitted and tested for Full compliance to BS/EN Standards and the incoming Australian code of Practice for gates and Automation. A great demonstration of our capacity to provide turn key solutions. Australias biggest and safest gates, that’s Ideal. #automaticgates #safety #highsecurity #fabrication #construction
