Description
Automatic gravity-closing design
The gate has a horizontal swing, not a vertical drop and the design relies solely on gravity. It does not depend on springs or the operator so that when opened, the hinge design causes the blade to travel slightly upwards. Then when the opening force is released, the blade is pulled downward by gravity swinging back to the closed position.
Strong rigid construction
The hinge, blade, pin, block and washer are moulded from strong, rigid polyurethane where the polymer is coloured throughout with high visibility safety yellow. Galvanised nuts and bolts are included for mounting to angle iron handrail. They have been tested to insure that they can withstand and exceed the EN ISO 14122O standard. |
Benefits
- Self closing by gravity
- Light weight
- Low investment
- Less expensive than steel gates
- Teflon bearings so no wear
- Corrosion resistant
- Maintenance free
- Easy installation
- High visible yellow
- Execs EN ISO 14122
- Strong rigid construction
- Impact resistant
The use of Teflon bearings and wearplate ensures the self-closing properties of the safety gate, even after many years of use in industrial environments! As it always closes, and uses Teflon bearings, it is maintenance free and therefore there is no wear. |
Quality
Our strength is customer safety
The current design is tested to show customers the strength of the gates. This test simulates a person falling against the gate and it can be seen that the gate bends, bounces back, but does not break. All kinetic energy is absorbed. No other competitor gates will pass this test, simply, they break! That is why the Intrepid gate is unique and offers high levels of safety. |
INSTALLATION:
 Left or right swing?
Whether the gates have left or right swing is determined by the viewpoint of someone stepping off the ladder and onto the platform.
The safety gate shown is a right swing.
What size?
1. Measure the opening between the posts.
2. Choose the corresponding code from the table.
Round tube handrail system
Installation of safety gates on round tubes adapter sets is available as an option.
- The left side shows an installation using 2 sets
- The right side shows an installation with only one set.
