Gates & Enclosures

Provide maximum safety protection for VRC (Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor) installations. Heavy 3" x 4" vertical posts, offered only by Pflow, are more durable, won't bend on impact and ensure smooth, trouble-free operation. Expanded metal panels are more resistant to damage than woven panels, easier to repair. All gates are equipped with electro-mechanical interlocks and available in custom sizes.

Vertical acting gates are available in single and bi-panel models. Designed to save space, don't intrude into aisles, and are not easily damaged. Bi-panel models, with telescoping panels, offer the most space-efficient protection and require significantly less overhead clearance. Vertical acting gates are counterbalanced with an exclusive cross-shaft design. This ensures the gate remains constantly level when raised from either the right side, left side or center.

Non-binding UHMW sliding guides on vertical acting gates tolerate misaligned posts better than roller guides and are more resistant to damage. Chain is used instead of cable for greater strength and durability. Single or bi-parting swing gates and sliding gates are offered in a variety of widths. Tubular construction on swing gates allows for oversized gates to 7' width maximum.

Single or bi-parting swing gates

Single and bi-parting swing gates are available in a variety of widths. Equipped with 7'8" post heights that permit passage of full 7' high loads. Maximum single-panel width is 7'. Bi-parting swing gates save space using smaller panels and come in standard sizes to 12' wide overall. Both types are available in custom sizes.

Swing Gates

Sliding Gates are supplied with overhead track and 7'8" high support posts to permit passage of full 7' high loads. The maximum standard width is 11' overall. Custom sizes available.
