Gates
Gate frames should consist of a rigid structural material with the necessary
horizontal and vertical bracing to provide an adequate support for the rigid
attachment of fabric and hardware accessories. Keep the following in mind when
assessing gates:
•
firmly attach all gate hardware accessories (minimum free-play and wear)
•
make sure that double gates have stops (rigid anchor)
•
prevent locking hardware from moving in the wind
•
prevent sliding gate track hardware, supports, guides, etc., from rattling in
the wind
Gate frame types - single swinging, double swinging, and sliding are covered in
this guide.
Obstacles
All vegetation (weeds, brush, trees, etc.) must be cleared from the fence area. It
cannot in any way touch or hang over the fence fabric.
Any other objects that will rattle, or otherwise affect the operation of the sensor
cables must be removed from the perimeter.
Weather
Ambient weather conditions such as a tendency for electrical storms, high
precipitation and strong winds may affect the configuration parameters for the
Intelli-FLEX II system. Determine the normal weather conditions for the site.
If it is determined that your site is in a severe weather environment, the cut count
and climb time may have to be increased by 1 or 2 units. See
