The Illinois Engineered Products SSG1270-ANG Retractable Folding Gate is a single-gate solution designed to secure loading docks, doors, hallways, and entrances while preserving access, visibility, and airflow. This gate combines a heavy-duty 12-gauge steel vertical frame with 14-gauge steel webbing, all finished in galvanized coating for durability and easier cleaning. When retracted, the gate pivots on its mounts to move completely out of the opening, and it loses 6 inches in height when extended, helping it fit various passage widths without blocking adjacent spaces.
Key construction details include a rugged galvanized finish that resists rust and simplifies maintenance, as well as caster wheels (rubber) and mounting hardware for straightforward installation. The lattice consists of heavy-duty 14-gauge steel U-channel webbing riveted with aircraft-quality aluminum rivets, providing a sturdy yet lightweight barrier. The unit is designed for installations where light and air exchange are important, and it includes padlock-compatible gate locks with a hasp and two lockable drop pins for added security. Note that lag bolts and the padlock are not included, and the product ships unassembled for customizable field mounting.
This single-gate model fits openings from 11 feet to 12 feet wide, with a collapsed height of 7 feet and an expanded height of 6 feet 6 inches. The total weight is approximately 120 pounds per gate, and the product ships as a standard unit with all required mounting brackets and bearing washer included. Consider these dimensions and mounting requirements when planning an installation, and verify that your door or opening accommodates the retracted-clearance and extended height before ordering.
