The Illinois Engineered Products PFG1685-ANG retractable double folding gate provides secure access control for loading docks, garages, hallways, and entryways while preserving visibility, airflow, and ease of movement. This gate configuration is designed to cover 14 to 16 feet of width and stands 8 feet 6 inches when folded, expanding to 8 feet in height. Its double-gate arrangement folds and pivots on sturdy mountings, allowing the gate to swing out of the opening when not in use, which helps maintain clear access without obstructing traffic or light.
Constructed for durability, the gate uses a heavy-duty 12-gauge steel vertical frame paired with 14-gauge steel webbing, all finished in galvanized steel for rust resistance and easier cleaning. The lattice is built from 14-gauge steel U-channel webbing riveted with aircraft-grade aluminum rivets, providing structural rigidity while keeping weight manageable. Each unit ships unassembled with mounting brackets, bearing washers, and solid steel casters included; lag bolts and padlocks are not included, allowing you to choose your own locking and mounting hardware to match your security and installation requirements. The design accommodates easy installation and field adjustments as needed.
This double gate is suited for securing receiving doors, lift-up doors, hallways, and entryways where maintaining light and air flow is important. The gate’s height reduction of 6 inches when extended is a key consideration for fit within fixed vertical clearances. Consider your site’s mounting surface, load requirements, and whether custom powder coating is desired for additional corrosion resistance; custom powder coating is available upon consultation. The unit is packaged as a single, unassembled gate per package, with an approximate weight of 185 lbs per gate, reflecting its robust construction without compromising operability.
