Illinois Engineered Products PECO1065 Double Economy Folding Gate - 8' to 10' Wide, 6' 6" Collapsed Height, 6' In-Use Height

The PECO1065 Double Economy Folding Gate from Illinois Engineered Products is designed to secure open loading dock entries, service doors, hallways, and other openings while preserving visibility and airflow. This economy model emphasizes a lighter, recycled-material construction that uses less steel than traditional gates, helping to reduce weight and material costs without sacrificing deterrence. The gate features galvanized 15-gauge recycled steel U-channel webbing riveted back-to-back with aircraft-quality aluminum rivets, and a frame built from recycled galvanized angle iron. It includes solid hinge pins and steel drop pins on both sides to reinforce security, and it can be secured with a padlock hasp for controlled access.

Constructed to swing 180 degrees on hinges and fold back to a tight stack beside the opening, the gate is designed for easy installation with mounting brackets included. Its corrosion-resistant galvanized finish supports use in varied environments, and the design promotes air circulation through its open-grid configuration. The unit ships unassembled and carries a 1-year manufacturer warranty, with a listed weight of 77.0 lbs each. The product fits openings of 8' to 10' wide and stands 6' 6" in both its closed and open configurations, though it loses 6" in height when fully extended, a nuance buyers should consider for clearances and alignment with existing openings.
