GATES
All gates welded first and then polyester powder coated after fabrication. Types of gate available: Single, double drive, cantilever, overhead, and rolling. Gate operators can be installed on all gates. Types if hinges and latches are furnished according to gate size and usage.

HARDWARE (BALL TOPS, BRACKETS, FINALS AND SCROLLS)
All hardware shall be zinc alloy die cast AG40-A as per ASTM B86 with a tensile strength of 41,000 psi (282 Mpa) and a Brinell hardness of 82.

ASSEMBLY
Sections and gates shall be factory-assembled with pickets welded or screwed using a #6 1dacrotized screw. Posts shall be predrilled and routed to receive the horizontal rails. The rails brackets (when needed) shall be attached by ¼” (6.35 mm) screws. Ball tops, brackets, finials, and scrolls shall be factory assembled. Racked and radius sections are also factory-assembled.

FINISH
All components shall go through a five-stage process: 1) Rinsed and cleaned with clear water 2) Phosphate treated to etch the surface  3) Rinsed again with clear water 4) Components are oven-dried prior to powder coating 5) Polyester powder is then applied by the electrostatic spray process to a thickness of 2.5 mils (.0635 mm). The metal is then oven-backed at 450o (232o C) for 14 minutes. Standard colors available: Black, Chocolate, Ensor Green, and White. Custom colors are available upon request.
