Cantilever sliding gates

A Cantilever Sliding Gate will remove the need for tracking along the length of the opening.  The cantilever design requires an additional section of gate min. 30%  to counterbalance the gate.  Additional space is needed at the gate opening side.

We have done the measurements.  All you need is the gate opening width and approximate weight to choose your kit below.

A simple way to look at this system is that you have two carriage units that look like upside down roller skates and a track the runs on these rollers.  The gate sits on top of this track.

Advantages

Floats over uneven ground.
Smoother operation.

Disadvantages

Cost -  they have more expensive and heavier components.
Stress -  they are under constant stress during operation.
Ease of Fitting - they need a large concrete base to hold the carriage units down.

Tip - Do not use a cantilever system unless the ground is uneven, when your sliding gate is running on a ground track it won't move or drop.
