The Illinois Engineered Products PFG2080-ANG retractable folding gate is designed to secure interior and exterior openings such as loading docks, service doors, hallways, and entryways while preserving visibility and airflow. This double gate arrangement uses a heavy-duty 12-gauge steel vertical frame with 14-gauge steel webbing to create a sturdy barrier that can be moved out of the way when access is needed. The galvanized finish provides durability and ease of cleaning, with customization options including a powder-coated finish available upon request. When extended, the gate reduces height by 6 inches, a characteristic that should be considered during installation to ensure proper clearance and operation.
Construction and distinguishing features include a robust frame paired with lattice formed by 14-gauge steel U-channel webbing riveted to aircraft-grade aluminum rivets, which helps maintain rigidity while allowing light and air to pass through the opening. The folding design pivots on its mountings, enabling the gate to swing or fold out of the doorway to keep the opening accessible. Included components for installation are mounting brackets, bearing washers, and solid steel casters; however, lag bolts and padlocks are not supplied, so you’ll need to source those hardware items separately to fit your mounting surface and security requirements. Gates are shipped unassembled to accommodate easier handling and on-site fitting.
This double-gate system is suitable for securing receiving doors, lift-up doors, hallways, and other entryways where airflow is important and access control is needed. It is offered in widths from 18 feet to 20 feet and an expanded height of 7 feet 6 inches, with a collapsed height of 8 feet, making it adaptable to a range of doorway sizes. When planning installation, verify that the available ceiling or structure clearance accommodates the 15 inches of stacked depth per side in the folded position and accounts for the 6-inch height reduction when extended.
