Maintenance

The frequency of interior maintenance will depend how often the gate is used, the type of personnel using the gate, and
the environment the gate is installed in. The gate should be inspected during the first 30 days after installation. Follow
the maintenance schedule below after the first 30 days. This schedule is based on what's called a "typical installation"
- which is a temperate climate where weekly use is up to 300 activations. If use exceeds this threshold, personel are
abusive to the gates, or if the gates are installed in harsh environments, such as coastal areas, chemcial or refinery
plants, very hot or cold locations, or extremely dusty environments, consider increasing the frequency of maintenance
to a level suitable for your application.

Operational Care

General - Check gate levelness and the tension of the anchors. Tighten to approximately 25 ft-lbs. Clean away
accumulated dust and dirt.
Wiring - Inspect all wires and contacts for any signs of wear, abrasions, or exposure to any metal parts that may
lead to a short.
Hinges - Lubricate the door hinge points with 3-in-1 oil and verify that the gate door moves and self closes freely.
Closure - Lubricate the closure hinge points with 3-in-1 oil and verify that the gate door moves and self closes freely.

Gate Finish Care

The finish on your gate will look better if it is maintaned. The frequency of maintenance depends on three factors:
1. the installation location, 2. environmental factors, and 3. the customers interest in how the gate looks. We suggest
cleaning the exterior of the gate every three (3) months.
Hot Dipped Galvanized Finishes -
A hot dipped galvanised finish is an industrial coating designed to provide corrosion protection. Aesthetic
considerations are secondary. Finish irregularities are a natural result of the hot dipped galvanizing process. The
apperance of a hot dipped galvanized coating can vary depending on the size and shape of the coated object. Various
apperances for hot dipped galvanized steel (all acceptable under appropriate ASTM standards) include bright and
shiny, spangled or mottled, matte gray, or a combination of various conditions. In most instances, the apperance of hot
dipped galvanized material has no effect on the primary purpose of the finish (corrosion protection) and over time and
exposure to the environment, all galvanized finishes will take on a uniform matte gray apperance.
Periodic cleaning of galvanized finishes is recommended. To clean galvanized finishes, use a neutral (non-alkaline)
detergent, such as a car shampoo, clean warm water and a soft brush. Abrasive cleaners, steel wool, and chemical
cleaning products should not be used. Rinse the surface after cleaning.
Damaged galvanized areas can be treated or touched up with zinc-rich paint. Use an organic cold galvanizing
compound following the manufacturer's instructions. An explanatory document describing the ASTM recommended
repair process is available from the American Galvanizer Association website.
