Slide Gate Requirements
The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate
access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that
persons will not come in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
All openings of a horizontal slide gate are
guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a
minimum of six (6) feet (1.83 m) above the ground to
prevent a 2 1/4 inch (57.2 mm) diameter sphere from
passing through the openings anywhere in the gate
and in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate
covers in the open position.
Note: A filler post or barrier
may need to be installed in the
gap area to reduce the distance
to 2 1/4 inches
or less .
A contact sensor should be
installed in this area for
safety.
(See
on next page and page 26).
A gap, measured in the horizontal plane parallel to
the roadway, between a fixed stationary object
nearest the roadway (such as a gate support post)
and the gate frame when the gate is in either the
fully open position or the fully closed position, shall
not exceed 2 1/4 inch (57.2 mm).

mesh on the
ENTIRE gate AND and on that portion
of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the
open position. (See above).
