Instructions on Gate Posts
I
mportant Notice!
Because the coasting distance may vary due to change in temperature, Eagle Access Controls does NOT
recommend the installation of a stop or catch post in front of the gate path as shown in Example A.
To do so will cause the gate to hit the post in certain instances. Eagle Access Controls only recommends
installation of catch rollers on the side of a post with a minimal distance of 4" (Four inches) between the
rollers as shown in Example B. Also when fully open the end of the sliding gate must stop at least 3"
(three inches) from any wall or other objects as shown in Example C.
CAUTION!
!
For safety reasons, a positive stop must be installed on the gate track prior to installation of the gate.
This will assure that the gate does not exceed movement limit and derail while opening or closing fully.
