Broxap’s industrial sliding gates are designed to provide secure, practical access control for shelters, compounds and other enclosed external installations. The gates slide from both sides towards a central column, creating a bi-parting opening arrangement that supports efficient access while maintaining a strong security presence.
This format is well suited to cycle compounds, service enclosures and other controlled outdoor spaces where durability, reliable operation and clear access management are key requirements.
These sliding gates are configured to slide both ways to a central column, opening each side of the shelter or compound entrance. This bi-parting configuration is a practical solution where a secure opening is required but swing-gate clearance or surrounding site constraints make hinged alternatives less suitable.
Configuration benefits include:
• Bi-parting gate arrangement opening to a central column
• Suitable for shelters and compound entrances
• Practical access solution where hinged gate swing space is limited
• Strong visual deterrent and controlled entry point
This makes them a dependable option for a range of commercial sliding gates applications.
The gates are available with either mesh infill panels or straight bar infill panels, allowing the specification to be matched to the security and visual requirements of the site. Both options support a robust gate solution for external environments and can be selected to align with the surrounding enclosure or compound design.
Infill panel options include:
• Mesh infill panels
• Straight bar infill panels
These options make the product suitable as security sliding gates for projects requiring different levels of openness, visibility or perimeter styling.
Broxap’s sliding gate system is available in many sizes to suit the specific dimensions of the shelter or compound. This helps specifiers achieve a better fit with the wider enclosure layout and operational access needs, whether for personnel entry, cycle access or larger controlled openings.
Size and layout advantages include:
• Many sizes available to suit shelter or compound
• Adaptable to different entrance widths and site layouts
• Suitable for new installations and upgrade projects
This flexibility supports specification across varied external infrastructure schemes.
A range of locking mechanisms is available, allowing the gate security level to be matched to site use, user access arrangements and operational requirements. This supports specification across both straightforward secured areas and more tightly controlled environments.
Locking and security options include:
• A range of locking mechanisms
• Configuration to suit shelter or compound access needs
• Options to support controlled use in public or commercial settings
This makes the system practical for sites requiring dependable access management as part of a broader security strategy.
Different finishes are available to support project-specific visual requirements and environmental conditions. This allows the gates to be coordinated with the wider shelter, compound or public realm palette for a more consistent overall appearance.
Specification options include:
• Different finishes available
• Multiple sizing options
• Choice of infill panel type
• Range of locking mechanisms
The gates can also be specified alongside Broxap shelters, compounds, access control systems and related security products for a coordinated external solution.
For projects requiring a higher level of access automation, the sliding gate format can support more advanced locking and access arrangements as part of a wider secure compound solution. This can be relevant for schemes considering automatic sliding gates or enhanced access control integration.
Typical project contexts include:
• Secure cycle compounds and hubs
• Commercial service and storage enclosures
• Public-sector controlled access areas
• Managed sites requiring secure external entry points
Where required, Broxap can advise on suitable gate and locking combinations to align with the operational needs of the site.
Where used in the appropriate situation, these gates can contribute towards gaining ENE8 credits under the Code for Sustainable Homes. They are also noted as BREEAM and Code for Sustainable Homes compliant.
Compliance-related information includes:
• Can contribute towards ENE8 credits (where applicable)
• BREEAM compliant
• Code for Sustainable Homes compliant
This can support specification on projects with formal sustainability assessment requirements.
With bi-parting operation, mesh or straight bar infill options, flexible sizing and a choice of locking mechanisms, Broxap’s industrial sliding gates provide a durable and adaptable solution for secure shelters and compounds across the UK & Ireland. Suitable for commercial sliding gates and security sliding gates applications, they offer practical access control for demanding external environments.
