FANCY FENCE ENTRANCE GATES AND FENCES THAT RETRACT INTO THE GROUND

The main component of the retractable gate and fence system is a gate leaf that is retracted into the ground, using a built-in drive. The leaf becomes invisible when it is open. The gate is placed in a concrete vault ensuring stability and durability of the system. It is modular in design – the individual gate leaves can be combined to make barriers of different lengths. The gate leaf is connected by a system of wire ropes and sheaves with a system of counterweights, the weight of which is equal to the weight of the leaf. This design allows for the use of conventional and widely available low-power electric drives, which guarantees the reliability, ease of operation and maintenance of the entire drive system.

UNLIMITED DESIGN OPTIONS

Retractable gates and fences allow you to create any arrangement of barrier you like, by using a wide range of available designs or using materials provided by the customer. The cladding or infill material of gates and fences can be mounted at any angle and consist of materials such as:

ARRANGE AS YOU PLEASE

Retractable gates and fences allow you to freely shape the line of the gate or fence to be retracted into the ground. By default, the gates are straight sections, but they can also be made in the shape of an arc or even be a crooked line:

ANY TYPE OF CLADDING OR INFILL

Retractable gates and fences can have different types and quantities of cladding or infill. Standard gates are made of pickets of any cross-section, between which there is a visible gap of 100 mm (4″). They can also be made in semi-clad or fully-clad design infill versions, which provide a greater level of privacy:

VARIABLE HEIGHT

FANCY FENCE system retractable gates and fences can be configured so that the height of the gate or fence is individually tailored to your needs. It is possible to have the individual pickets at any height and shape you desire. This allows you to completely secure access in the case of unusual entrances to property, buildings or facilities:

INSTALLATION ON TERRAIN WITH SLOPES

Thanks to the vertical movement of the leaves, FANCY FENCE system retractable gates and fences are the only type available on the market that can be installed on sloping driveways without having to level the terrain around them. When installed in areas with a slope perpendicular to the gate leaf, it is necessary to place channel drainage along the length of the gate, on the higher side, to prevent any water runoff from flooding the concrete vault.

RESISTANT TO SAND AND DUST

FANCY FENCE system retractable gates and fence are resistant to the ingress of sand or dust. This is because all mechanisms exposed to contamination are hidden in a concrete vault, under covers. In areas particularly prone to large quantities of sand, it is possible to use additional seals to close the openings around the pickets.

ENHANCED SAFETY

FANCY FENCE system retractable gates are equipped with electro sensitive protection equipment mounted on both sides of the gate to protect people, animals and vehicles from injury or damage. When the safety circuit is triggered it stops gate operation. Additional protection is provided by overload equipment fitted as standard in the electric drives of our gates. It is worth noting that, unlike other types of gates available on the market, FANCY FENCE gates, even if all other safety systems fail, still do not pose the same risk to human life, animals or property as other types of gates. The FANCY FENCE system meets stringent safety requirements, which has been confirmed by independent certification bodies.

NO NEED FOR SNOW REMOVAL

Both swing and sliding gates require snow to be removed after heavy snowfall in order for them to operate. This inconvenience does not occur in the case of FANCY FENCE retractable gates.

MANUAL OPERATION

Emergency manual opening or closing of the gate is enabled with the use of a special handle, through the inspection hatch located in the middle cover. The fact that the gate leaf is connected to a counterweight system of the same mass allows it to be lowered or raised easily, even by children.

INVISIBLE PEDESTRIAN ACCESS GATE

The FANCY FENCE system pedestrian access gate does not have standard hinges, it rotates around one of the pickets. This is possible due to the use of a horizontal beam with pickets that are welded to the top of it. The beam is placed below the level of the pavement, which makes it possible to obtain the effect of an “invisible pedestrian access gate”, integrated with the rest of the fence, rendering it virtually unnoticeable. Naturally, customers who want their pedestrian access gate to stand out from the rest of the fence have a wide range of options to do this by using different materials, designs or colours.

PRECISE INSTALLATION

To achieve the desired effect, FANCY FENCE system retractable entrance gates are installed by specialized and thoroughly trained teams. The gate mechanism is assembled in an underground concrete vault previously prepared according to the precise guidelines contained in the Architect Area. It is possible to order a precast concrete vault, which is delivered to the installation site. For available options, please contact your distributor.
