Automatic & Electric Gates
Sloan's certified technicians specialize in the safe installation and maintenance of various types of Automated Gates, including Operated Sliding Gates and Bi-Folding Electric Gates.
Bi-Fold Gates
Motorized Bi-Fold gates are a sophisticated entrance solution that combines functionality with space-saving design. This innovative gate system consists of two panels hinged in the center, allowing them to fold inward or outward upon command. Powered by a motor, the gate smoothly opens and closes with the push of a button or a remote control, offering convenience and security to properties.
• K-Rated models
• Speed designs available
• Electric or Hydraulic opening systems
Slide Gates
Sliding gates are a highly sought-after choice for both residential and commercial properties due to their versatility. With various accessories available, electric sliding gates can be customized to suit a range of site conditions. These gates operate on a sliding V-track and can be installed either as a standard or shallow mount for added convenience.
• Reinforced designs for crash-ratings
• Available in chain link and ornamental
• Crash-Tested Models
• Electric or Hydraulic opening systems
Swing Gates
Electric swing gates are the most commonly used entryway gates. They are designed as hinged fence panels that operate like a door, swinging open and close. Unlike sliding or bi-folding gates, they require minimal maintenance as they have no wheels or tracks for debris to accumulate in. Additionally, they are easier to install and have a longer lifespan.
• K4, K8, and K12 Crash-Rated models
• Industrial and Commercial designs
• Electric or Hydraulic opening systems
Cantilever Gates
Our Motorized Cantilever Gates don’t touch the ground and are held above the ground and move along cantilever rollers. Without a track on the ground, there is less fuss than with conventional roller-sliding gates. This makes them particularly appropriate for applications where aesthetics or space is important as well as for pedestrian crossing points in underground parking lots.
• Aluminum, Steel, or Chain Link
• Single or Double track configuration
• Crash-Tested Models
• Electric opening systems
Vertical Pivot Gates
Vertical Pivot Gates are the perfect solution for entrances with uneven ground or limited space. These gates have a small footprint and do not require as much space as traditional swing gates that swing in and out of your property. This gate design maximizes airspace and keeps space clear in front and behind the gate, making them a versatile and practical option for various settings.
• Aluminum, Steel, or Chain Link
• Trackless, compact design
• Electric or Hydraulic opening systems
