Product Description
2.4m High Apollo 868 Twin Mesh Double Leaf Gate Kit
The Apollo® 868 Twin Mesh Gate series by First Fence enhances our extensive selection of security solutions. Available in both single and double leaf configurations and offering options for either dig-in or bolt-down installation, we provide all the essentials for your gate needs!
Crafted to enhance security and optimise access control across various settings, the Apollo® 868 Twin Mesh Double Leaf Gate Kit offers a robust and reliable solution. Ideal for industrial complexes, commercial properties, educational campuses, residential areas, asset-rich businesses, and power plants, it serves as an ideal entry and exit point for your Twin Mesh fencing setup.
Features and Benefits
Standing at a height of 2.4m, this gate kit is one of the tallest in the range and offers widths ranging from 2.0m to 10.0m, accommodating both pedestrian and vehicle access and tailored to suit your site's specific needs. With its double leaf configuration, it grants complete control over access, enabling the operation of one or both leaves as required. Utilising the distinctive 868 Twin Mesh structure featuring 8mm horizontal and 6mm vertical wires, these gates strike an optimal balance between visibility and security. This design facilitates clear observation while deterring unauthorised entry and blocking the passage of large objects through the mesh apertures. Additionally, the mesh construction ensures a robust gate, rendering it a secure choice for areas frequented by children, such as schools or recreational spaces.
Constructed from pre-galvanised steel, these gates are resistant to rust formation. You have the option to add an extra layer of polyester powder for enhanced protection against corrosion and damage, as well as to impart a vibrant and colourful appearance to the gate. The gates feature smooth and flush mitred corners for a polished finish.
A Fully Modular System
Designed as a modular gate system, the Apollo® 868 Twin Mesh Gate is engineered for easy and quick installation through swift hardware adjustments. Featuring a universal handed and centrally welded mesh, these gates eliminate the requirement for fixed left or right-hand leaves, allowing on-site adjustment of orientation. This installation versatility eliminates the need for specific right or left-hand specifications; instead, you can select the desired orientation during installation. Each gate is pre-drilled with holes for convenient hardware placement, and plastic plugs are provided to cover any unused holes.
The Apollo® 868 Twin Mesh Gate offers exceptional versatility and is adaptable to various ground conditions. For solid ground surfaces, like concrete, we recommend the bolt-down option. Alternatively, for softer ground, such as soil or turf, the dig-in format is preferable. Please be aware that opting for the dig-in installation will necessitate the addition of Post Mix to your order, while selecting the bolt-down format will require four M16 x 125mm Ground Anchor Bolts per post.
This gate range conforms to BS 12604 safety standards and includes pre-drilled holes for easy installation of a Safety Tether, which is available as an optional addition to your order. Installing the tether ensures compliance with DHF (Door and Hardware Federation) recommendations by keeping the gate within 300mm of its vertical axis in case of top hinge failure. Furthermore, you have the option to include a locking drop bolt with your order, particularly for the double leaf gate.
Every kit includes hinge posts, gate leaves, adjustable gate eyes, and ribbed inserts for the posts.
For enhanced security measures, consider incorporating a First Fence Slider Kit, tailored to complement all single leaf gates within the range. This comprehensive kit comprises a lasered surround, slam plate, retainer, slide bolt, guide plate, and other essential fixings. Alternatively, you have the option to select from various kits such as the Latch Deadlock Kit, Quick Exit Keylatch Kit (available in left or right-hand options), Quick Exit Digital Kit (available in left or right-hand options), Digital Single or Double Sided Kit, or a Deadbolt Kit. Adding a Locking Plate minimizes footholds, making it more challenging to climb the gate, while a lockable drop bolt ensures secure closure. Additionally, incorporating an Apollo® IFAM E-70 Padlock enhances site security by encasing the latch bolt, thus deterring unauthorised access.
The Apollo® Gates can be used with the 868 and 358 twin mesh ranges from First Fence.
