Defend Your Perimeter: Wide-Span Access Control
The SB.23H is the ultimate deterrent for preventing unauthorized caravans, HGVs, and high-sided vehicles from accessing wide entrances such as staff car parks, shopping centres, and recreational grounds. Complete with a centrally positioned sliding latch and padlock facility, this double-leaf gated system allows you to easily swing both barriers open when legitimate access for taller vehicles is required.
Manufactured from premium heavy-duty 100mm x 100mm steel box section and available to cover road widths from 6 to 11 metres, this barrier protects expansive commercial premises from illegal access. For perfect alignment during installation, the gates are supplied with heavy-duty, galvanized adjustable eyebolts.
Key Features & Benefits
- Robust Construction: Built for long-lasting durability to withstand frequent use and harsh weather.
- Central Locking Facility: Features a heavy-duty sliding latch, centrally positioned to secure both gates in the closed position, complete with a padlocking facility.
- 180-Degree Opening: Gates can open up to 180 degrees (depending on hinge post positioning) to provide maximum clearance for oversized authorized vehicles.
- Optional Padlock & Catch Posts: Enhance security with optional heavy-duty padlocks, and safely lock the gates in the open position using dedicated latch-back catch posts.
- Customisable Signage Options: Clearly warn drivers with two distinct choices. Static Signs are fixed flush directly onto the solid metal framework of the main top gate. Nudge Bars are standalone warning bars suspended below the main barrier that physically swing and alert the driver upon impact, protecting your main steel framework from damage.
- Low Maintenance: Fewer moving parts than traditional multi-point systems, drastically reducing long-term wear and tear.
- Professional Installation Available: Easy to install yourself, or call us on 01256 442 829 for a competitive quote on our fitting service.
- Customisable Sizing: Choose from standard spans (6m to 11m) and multiple clearance heights (1.9m to 2.2m). Need a custom width to match exact road dimensions? As these are heavy-duty steel, bespoke sizes require custom fabrication. Please do not order the next size up online; instead, contact our specialist sales team for a bespoke quote.
Finish Options
- Galvanised Only: Extended life against rust and corrosion.
- Zinc Primed & Powder Coated: Standard colours available (custom options upon request).
- Double Finish: Galvanised and powder-coated for ultimate weather resistance.
Delivery & Fabrication Notice
These heavy-duty double leaf barriers are made to order to ensure the highest quality finish. Standard manufacturing takes between 7 to 14 working days for single finishes (Galvanised or Powder Coated) and 14 to 21 working days for double finishes. Please allow an additional 2 to 3 working days for delivery once fabrication is complete. While our checkout provides an estimated lead time based on minimum schedules, exact delivery dates are confirmed upon order processing and scheduling with our transport team.
IMPORTANT DELIVERY NOTE: Please be aware that these double-leaf barriers are substantial, heavy-duty units. Offloading beyond the kerbside is the customer's responsibility. Ensure suitable mechanical equipment (e.g., a forklift) or sufficient personnel are available on-site at the time of delivery.
SAFETY RECOMMENDATION: We strongly advise using warning signage, nudge bars, and latch-back catch posts on all opening barriers. Catch posts are critical for safely securing the heavy gates in the open position to prevent them from swinging into traffic or pedestrians. Please note: Customers opting out of recommended catch posts assume liability for safe operation.
