DRIVE MECHANISM
Our LC9000 Heavy Duty Automatic Sliding Gate
employs a revolutionary – Patent Applied For -
GB0713973.6 - External Friction Drive Mechanism
ensuring a smooth, consistent, and quiet gate
movement. As well as being the main drive, the
External Friction Drive Mechanism also acts as the
primary support roller of the gate ensuring a consistent
contact between the drive roller and the underside of
the lower beam. This is assisted by the dual stabilising
support wheels located on either side of the drive
roller.
A Manual Release Mechanism, concealed within the
lockable housing unit, is included as standard, allowing
manual control of the gate in the event of a power
failure.
An additional fully
adjustable support unit is positioned in the runback area at a distance of
approximately 40% of the length of the main lower beam to aid in the support of the
gate when it is fully closed. Towards the back of the gate’s ope ning area a floor
mounted support roller handles the weight of the gate in the fully open position.
Proximity sensors are used to indicate the start and end of the travel cycle.
Dual-height photo cells are fitted as standard, for safety to pedestrians a nd vehicles,
on all LC9000 Heavy-Duty Automatic Sliding Gate. A Programmable Logic
Controller, operated via an inverter, allows the user to adjust the speed to their
individual requirements.
BS/EN 12453 Compliant - The LC9000 complies with safety features announced
under the EU standards and regulations. Five profiled Safety Edges are provided;
each consisting of 2 parallel electrically conducted rubber strips. These are
connected to the main control panel by two cables, which are concealed within the lo wer beam, which transmit
messages to and from the safety edges. In the unlikely event of a fault, messages will be transmitted to the
necessary safety edges instructing the gate to be stopped, regardless of its current operation.

DESIGN FEATURES
Our LC9000 Cantilevered Automatic Sliding Gates are made to order and can be supplied with a height of up to
2.4 metres with a drive-through of up to 10 metres wide; all with a ground clearance of 125mm.
The main gate frame comprises of upper and lower 75mm squar e aluminum-tube rails with the main uprights
made from the same material. The 30mm diameter infill’s, all having a 6mm wall thickness and set at 125mm
centers, are mounted on our custom-made lower beam extrusion. The LC9000 is unique in that the External
Friction Drive is incorporated into the lower beam as opposed to the inside face of the gate, protecting it from
the elements, whilst also being completely out of view.
AESTHETICS
The LC9000 has a sophisticated, durable and secure appearance. Spikes line the top of the gate to warn off
intruders, and the 6mm thick evenly-spaced individual Aluminum bars further add to the sturdy appearance. The
compact housing of the electronics, coupled with the drive motor and supports being expertly hidden beneath
the lower beam further enhance the neat and professional appearance.
INSTALLATION/BUILDING REQUIREMENTS
The LC9000 heavy-duty automatic sliding gate will be assembled and fully tested within the production factory,
thus minimising the disruption on site. Th e gate will be delivered, ready to be lowered on to the pre -installed
concrete plinths.
ACCESS CONTROL OPTIONS
Proximity Card Readers and Controllers, Keypads, Remote Control Transmitters, Push -Button control
Raise/Stop/Lower, Intercom Systems, Token Ac ceptors, Counting Systems etc.
