Bam Bormet Speedgates

A bi-folding speedgate is the fastest solution to open and close a passageway. In addition, a bi-folding speedgate offers the same security as a sliding gate. Therefore, bi-folding speedgates are often used for areas with busy traffic flows that require more stringent security than an boom barrier offers.

Security with Bam Bormet Speedgates

Our bi-folding speedgates are secured with a master/slave photocell curtain. This photocell curtain ensures that the bi-folding speedgate only closes when the vehicle has driven completely through the bi-folding speedgate. As an added precaution, contact strips are installed on the bi-folding speedgate wing. If these contact strips come into contact with anything too narrow to be detected by the photocell curtain m/s the bi-folding speedgate’s movement will be immediately reversed.
