Gates

Construction of gates is the arrangement of a reliable entrance to the territory, to the garage or to another object. Usually, gates for a private house are installed within the fence or enclosure, and the correct calculation of the dimensions is extremely important. The main stages of installing gates for the yard are the choice of a certain type of structure, installation of posts, assembly of the frame, sheathing of the canvas and connection of automation. All these processes, including the arrangement of automatic gates, are performed by the company LLC "RBK ALBA", offering a turnkey service.

Features of gate manufacturing, installation and construction

The type of gate for the fence is chosen depending on the type of plot.

For entry to the plot, it is recommended to install swing or sliding gates. The first option is classic, it involves opening inward or outward. Sliding or sliding entrance gates have a solid leaf that extends sideways along the fence.

For a garage, roller shutter or sectional gates are most often chosen. The corrugated iron gate option consists of panels that reach the ceiling. When installing, garage gates require space above the entrance opening. Roller shutter street gates are tightly wound into a box, are well suited for small garages, but have weak protection against penetration by outsiders.

Each of these types is distinguished by its installation and construction features. For example, swing gates have support pillars, hinges and leaves. The main thing is to firmly concrete the pillars. Custom-made sliding gates require pouring a powerful concrete foundation. They require guide and roller carriages for operation.

How is the gate installed?

Regardless of which type of construction is chosen, the gate installation process will consist of the following:

• Design. The opening is measured, the metal gate scheme and materials are selected.
• Preparation of the entrance opening. The site is cleared, the posts are installed and concreted, and the foundation for the gate with a wicket is formed.
• Gate production. A frame is welded from a profile pipe, which is primed and painted with substances to protect against corrosion.
• Sheathing. At this stage, installation work is carried out with the selected material on the finished gate frame.
• Installation of fittings. Hinges, locks or guides are mounted.

The last stage is the arrangement of automation for the gate, which is performed at the request of the customer. This stage involves the installation of an electric drive and the adjustment of control panels. After testing, the facility is put into operation by the customer.

Why do most people order metal gates?

The metal structure guarantees reliable protection of the territory. The main advantages of this material are extraordinary strength, long service life and resistance to bad weather. In addition, custom-made metal gates are a good barrier against breaking.

Metal withstands strong impacts and mechanical loads well. After the manufacture of metal gates, their service life is calculated for decades with proper care and periodic treatment against corrosion processes. No less important is the fact that customers have the opportunity to choose any format of the structure listed above.

When ordering the installation of metal gates, you can count on the following stages of service:

• Preparation of the installation site.
• Installation of posts, which are concreted to the depth of soil freezing.
• Assembly of the frame, after welding the frame, the forged gate is hung on strong hinges.
• Sheathing and painting. The frame is sheathed with corrugated board or sheet material, covered with anti-corrosion agents.

Most often, turnkey gates are made of a profile pipe measuring 60x30 mm for the manufacture of a frame or frame. Support posts are usually made of wood, concrete, brick or metal of various profiles. High-quality metal is used for welding the gates and manufacturing hinges, which ensures convenient opening without noise and protection against sagging of the structure.
