Sliding Gate IRONCLAD Kit

The Sliding Gate Kit ensures uninterrupted perimeter detection on automated sliding gates, maintaining line integrity without false alarms during normal gate movement.

Key Features and Components

Retractable Non-Sensitive Cord Reel: This is the core component. It houses a highly durable, flexible, and non-sensitive cord (30 ft/10m in length) that spools in and out as the gate moves.

Weatherproof Enclosure: The cord reel mechanism is housed in a durable, weatherproof enclosure, protecting the moving parts and internal wiring from dust, moisture, and extreme temperatures.

Two Junction Boxes: The kit includes two specialised junction boxes (similar to the RB-MCTXT) for making the critical, secure, and weatherproof splice connections between the sensitive IRONCLAD cable and the retractable cord (at the fixed gate post) and the retractable cord and the continuation of the sensitive IRONCLAD cable (on the moving part of the gate or the opposite fixed post).

This kit contains a retractable non-sensitive Cord Reel (10m) in a weatherproof enclosure with 2 junction boxes.

Benefits and Advantages

Zero False Alarms: By routing the signal through a non-sensitive, flexible cord while the gate is in motion, the kit ensures the LPU does not register movement or vibration from the gate opening/closing as an intrusion event.
Line Integrity Maintained: The retractable cord and junction boxes ensure continuous electronic supervision. If the cord is cut or damaged (a tamper event), the LPU immediately triggers a distinct fault alarm.
Maximised Cable Lifespan: The cord reel mechanism and specialised flexible cord are designed to handle the continuous back-and-forth flexing motion inherent to sliding gates, preventing premature wear and failure typical of standard cables.
Smooth Integration: The kit integrates with all IRONCLAD and MICALERT sensor systems, providing the necessary signal continuity for the processor units (LPU-402/404).

Ideal Applications

Commercial & Industrial Entrances: Securing the primary vehicle access points of logistics parks, industrial yards, and manufacturing facilities.

High-Security Facilities: Used at the vehicle sally ports and access points of data centres, substations, and military bases where gate integrity cannot be compromised.

Any Sliding Gate: Essential for any perimeter with sliding gates to ensure the security system's reliability and prevent maintenance headaches caused by false alarms or cable damage.
