Cantilever Gate
Dimensions: 30w x 5.5 H
USED Steel Cantilever Gate 30' long for a 20' opening, comes with 4 rollers Made for a 16’ opening
Cantilever slide gates are built larger than the gate opening they are designed to close, often as much as 50% larger than their respective openings.
The idea here is to hang the gate on two or more mounting posts and have the gate suspend off these mounting posts into the gate opening to close. In general, no part of the gate comes in contact with the ground directly, or indirectly with any type of wheel. Instead, these slide gates 'cantilever' to close the opening. Cantilever construction allows for overhanging structures without external bracing. It is key that cantilever gate frame be constructed properly to help withstand the forces of gravity and wind. Intricate diagonal bracing and trusses are usually strategically welded in place to help prevent gate sag.
