Sliding (recoil) gate do not take a lot of place therefore they are ideal for installation on sections of the small square. They are resistant to mechanical influences, are not afraid of wind gusts, are adapted to any weather patterns.

Instruction

1. Equip the base under sliding gate. For this purpose dig out trench (optimum size of 1.5х1.5х0.5 m).

2. To strengthen the foundation lay to it metal mountings, and then – fill in with concrete. It is possible to buy ready concrete or to prepare solution independently. The base has to be strong – the term of operation of sliding gate depends on it. Therefore to save on quality and amount of construction material the experts do not recommend.

3. After the base is stood, start mounting of the basis of gate. Design in itself not difficult therefore it is possible to make sliding gate independently. The supporting beam is basic element of gate. It can be got in the market or in specialized shop or to weld. For this purpose two pipes 20х20 located one over another will be required.

4. Leave small distance between pipes of supporting beam and weld in in it pieces of similar pipe. It will protect design from deflections and other deformations. Equip beam from the inside with basic carriages and establish at the basis of gate. Now fix carriages to the base so that between mechanisms the identical distance has remained.

5. Make frame of sliding gate of metal pipes with a diameter of 60х40. Connect them among themselves horizontal crossing points. Fix frame on supporting girder. Length of the frame, as a rule, is one third longer than the aperture sizes.

6. Now establish cloth of gate on rollers which have equipped vertical racks of frame. Check operability of the mechanism.
