The XPWM712 Portable Folding Gate from Illinois Engineered Products is an extra heavy-duty security barrier designed to temporarily control access in facility spaces. It combines a robust steel construction with hinged, foldable sections that expand from 7 to 12 feet, creating a versatile barrier for closing rack aisles, hallways, or work zones. When not in use, the gate folds compactly for storage and can be rolled on its 3-inch casters, enabling quick repositioning to respond to changing workflow or maintenance needs. The unit ships assembled and stands ready for operation, with a wall-mount attachment option available to suit your site requirements.
Its documented build includes galvanized 3/8" x 3/4" lattice formed from 14-gauge galvanized steel, reinforced by 11-gauge CRS components and zinc-plated fittings, which contribute to stable, long-term performance in industrial settings. The design integrates a locking bar and padlock hasp for controlled securing, and a transport strap helps personnel manage the assembly during movement. The gate’s expanded height is 6'6" for effective coverage, with a total system weight listed at 320 lbs, reflecting its heavy-duty construction intended for demanding environments where equipment and personnel need reliable, temporary access control.
The XPWM712 is specified to accommodate widths from 7 to 12 feet, with a wall-mount attachment variant available for installation in corridors or near equipment enclosures. This model is part of a family that includes starter gates and adders to customize barrier length, and it supports optional mounting configurations to suit site-specific needs. For buyers planning deployment, consider how wall mounting or floor mounting options align with workflow, aisle dimensions, and maintenance routines to ensure the barrier provides timely, controllable access while stored sections remain out of the way when not in use.
