ISTANCE TO BE RESPECTED TO AVOID RISK OF BEING CAUGHT INSIDE
.
The backslide zone of tracked sliding and cantileve-
red sliding gates must be protected according to the
NF EN 12635
standard (Gates equipping industrial
and commercial sites and garages - Installation and
utilisation). This standard stipulates that it is obliga-
tory to provide protection against risks of crushing,
shearing and dragging.
Thus, the fence must be set in position at a safe dis-
tance from the moving gate panel (see diagram
below).
This safe distance takes into account the exposed
parts of the human body according to the
NF EN 294
standard (safety distances to avoid the upper mem-
bers reaching dangerous areas) and the mesh
dimension of the installed fences along the length of
the gate (see table below).
