Gated Entry System

Premise security is only as good as your access control system.
Gated Entry Systems typically include a gate, an opener, entry and exit access controls.
Many different types of gates are available for your self-storage facility access solutions. Sliding and vertical-pivot gates are the most commonly used with self-storage facilities. Gates can either be equipped with rollers, that follow a track on the ground to keep the gate on course or in a cantilever design.
Cantilever gates support themselves. They have rails and rollers allowing it to open and close without the gate touching the ground.
Vertical Lift Gates are also self supporting. The gate opens by pivoting 90 degrees and is counter-balanced to be easily raised manually if necessary. Typical gate sizes are 20 feet wide by 6 feet high.
ENTRY/EXIT For Self-Storage Facility Gated Systems
The typical gate opening for a self-storage facility is 20 feet with a shared entry / exit (one gate). The traffic flow is reversed so customers enter and exit on the left side of the driveway. Keypads or card readers are placed on the left side, 15 feet from the gate - one entry on the outside of the property and one for the exit on the inside. Keypads are available from the window of the driver's vehicle.
