Sliding gates

Currently, sliding gate designs are becoming more popular. This is due to the ease of installation, as well as the ease of use of such options. Such gates can be used as entry into the territory, as well as for driving to a garage or to industrial premises.

Advantages of sliding gates

Sliding sliding gates are a design in which one or two sashes move parallel to the fence plane (garage wall) on a special guide system. Such gates can be made of wood or corrugated board , metal sheets. The main thing is that the surface is smooth enough, then the flaps will easily walk along the guides. That is, all decorative decorative elements for such gates are unacceptable. There are sliding systems without the use of guides.

The main convenience of sliding doors is that there is no need to clear the territory in the place where the doors will open (as is the case with swing structures). This eliminates the need to take care of clearing snow or leaves before leaving the gate. In the surrounding area, you can also install some decorative elements of decoration, plant trees or make an outbuilding. On the convenience of using sliding doors this will not affect.

Such a gate is sufficiently reliable and durable, they are able to serve a long time without the need for renovation. It is only necessary to lubricate the sliding mechanism in time, as well as to tint the doors, if some parts of them become slightly wiped or the paint lost its shine. Many now also acquire sliding gates with automation, which work without the need to exert physical strength. Such structures are more expensive than mechanical gates, but convenience for use is more important for many.

Sliding gates look very neat and strict, so they fit well into any design of the infield. If you want to combine the design of the entrance or garage doors as much as possible, you can paint their doors in any suitable color.

Sliding garage sliding doors

As already mentioned above, sliding gates can be successfully used as a garage. But there are several features that should be noted. So, if you are planning to purchase a sliding gate into a garage consisting of one section covering all the entrance to the building, it should be borne in mind that usually the length of such gates in a shifted form extends beyond the garage wall, that is, places in the side where the gates will move. On the other hand, the leaf, consisting of a single piece of material (especially if it is a metal profile) creates a much better protection of property from infringement, as well as from adverse external phenomena.

To make such garage doors more convenient to use, apply two solutions. First, the sliding structure is divided into two moving parts in opposite directions. That is, we get a gate with two leaves, each of which is half as long as the one, usually used in similar structures.

The second option - the use of sliding gates, consisting of several sections (a similar view will already apply to the sectional type of the gate), which move into the interior and are located along its side wall. Soft sectional design allows you to bend such gates at certain angles, which makes it possible to smoothly move the sash inside the garage.
