Important Safety Information
– Review before Installation
Automatic gate operators provide user convenience and security. However, because these machines can
produce high levels of force, it is important that all automated gate system designers, installers and end users
be aware of the potential hazards associated with improperly designed, installed or maintained systems. Keep
in mind that the gate operator is only one component of the automated gate system. It is the joint responsibility
of the specifier, designer, purchaser, installer and end user to verify that the system is appropriately
configured for its intended use. All parties should be informed that entrapment in a moving gate can cause
serious injury or death.

Important Instructions for Gate System Designers & Installers:
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury or death, read and follow all instructions
found in the gate operator manual and on the warning labels.
Install an Automatic Gate Operator only when:
The entry is configured for vehicular use only. Pedestrians must be directed to a
separate walk-through entrance. The WARNING signs that have been supplied with
this operator must be installed in a manner clearly visible on both sides of the gate.
All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened, from the bottom of
the gate to a minimum of 4 feet (1.2m) height above the ground, to prevent a sphere
2¼ inches (57mm) in diameter from passing through an opening anywhere in the
gate or the portion of the adjacent fence that is covered in the open position.
All exposed pinch points, rollers and wheels are guarded. To reduce the risk
of entrapment, the gate must also be installed so that enough clearance is provided
between the gate and adjacent structures both when opening and closing. Minimize
the parallel gap between the gate and the fence.
The gate has been constructed with physical stops to prevent over-travel in both
directions and has guard posts that prevent the gate from falling in the event of a
roller failure.
Review and meet all ASTM F-2200 and UL 325 automated gate system standards.
