THE ONLY CUSTOM GATE CHOICE.

There are many reputable gate manufacturers and lots of small custom metals shops that you can choose from. America’s Gate Company is the only national custom metals gate manufacturer. America’s Gate uses engineered tried-and-true structural principles while incorporating your custom design.

CANTILEVER GATES

The most widely specified and utilized engineered gate is the slide gate.  The slide gate may refer to many different designs, from a rolling gate with a V-groove bottom roller to an overhead slide gate. If your property encounters snow and ice, the most widely used and specified gate is a cantilever slide gate. Cantilever gates use a series of stationery rollers to support the gate’s tail (or counterbalance section) while the gate’s opening remains cantilevered and extended through the opening.

The America’s Gate Slide Cantilever Gates (Citadel, Bastion, and Allure series) are systems designed for use in residential, commercial and industrial installations. With thousands of gates installed all over the United States, America’s Gate systems have been rigorously tested and are suitable for use in all weather, continuous duty applications.

PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS

1. Openings – America’s Gate will design and manufacture gates that exceed openings greater than one hundred feet.
2. Height – The gate height possibilities are endless.
3. Weight –  Most chain link, estate and ornamental slide gate weights are fully within the engineered design. It is custom ornamental gates with unique sheet steel designs and heavy adornments that create a challenge. We engineer each gate’s structural design and truss system relative to the added weight.
4. Infill – Every slide gate design is similar relative to supporting the gate through the opening. The infill is what makes each gate unique. From chain link, vertical pickets, welded wire mesh and plasma cut sheet steel designs, we can make your ideal gate.
5. Engineering – Once the opening, infill and height are selected, we engineer the gate design to support the cantilevered slide or swing gate. We believe gates should be “wheel-free.”  This means the gate is supported and relies solely on its hinge points or rollers.  No wheels are placed on the nose of the gate to support the weight.
6. Finish – All of our gates receive a pre-coated treatment ranging from chemical to sand blasted. Our finish coating ranges from powder coating to an HVLP painting process. All of our coating processes have a 20 year limited warranty.
7. Material composition – Our materials are fabricated from aluminum alloy extrusions for light weight and durability
