Scissor Gates by Criterion | Residential Gates
Scissor Gates
Folding Gates - also known as scissor, accordion, expanding, or collapsible gates - are available in the rugged double-channel construction of the DC Series, the performance-designed economy of the EG Series, and the commonly seen “lazy tong” design of the LT Series. Most gates can be either single sliding or bi-parting, and can roll on floor casters or in tracks. Gate Cabinets can be provided to secure and conceal the gates when not in use.

DC Series Gates are designed for maximum durability and security. Double steel channels are riveted together to form each vertical member and connected with double rows of steel lattice bars traveling on nylon bearings and washers to operate with a minimum of effort. Leading and trailing edges are steel box shaped sections. DC series gates can be manufactured to almost any size.
EG Series Gates are value engineered to offer a balance between security and economy. Vertical members are single steel channels, alternating with steel flat bars, and connected with single rows of steel lattice bars traveling on formed steel glides for carefree operation. EG series gates are commonly provided up to 30’ wide and 12’ high, but even larger sizes may be available for some models.
LT Series Gates are performance-designed to meet the needs of the most cost-conscious buyer. Quality construction is achieved by the use of diagonal steel lattice channels in a diamond pattern riveted together through nylon spacers for light weight and smooth operation. LT series Gates are normally limited to 26’ wide and 12’ high. They are also available in a fully portable version on rolling stands for temporary usage in adjustable widths and a typical 6’-6” extended height.
Gate Cabinets can be provided to secure and conceal gates when not in use. Recessed steel cabinets with lockable hinged doors are available in “deep” and “shallow” designs for varying installation conditions.
NOTE: Most gates can be either single sliding or bi-parting, and can roll on floor casters or in top or bottom tracks

Notes:
(1) Use 24 GA limits for aluminum service door.
(2) GJ, SJ, and LJ operators not recommended for use on doors/grilles too large to be manually operated. (Use MG, H, or LH on doors requiring manual hoist chain.)
(3) LH or LJ operators are limited to 10 complete cycles per hour.
(4) This chart is intended as a guideline only. Doors and balance springs musts be in good operating condition and adjusted to manufacturers specifications.
(5) The chart is based on door travel of approximately 2/3 foot per second. Doors traveling in excess of 2/3 foot per second will require increased HP rating or decreased maximum sq. ft. rating.
(6) High cycle may require upgraded operator. |
