The main types of garage gates on automation

The garage gates differ from each other with two main parameters: material and the opening system. The most common and all familiar option is the high-rise gate, but there are also sliding and folding types. One of the most popular materials for the manufacture of garage gates is a tree, steel and plastic.

Lifting gates

Lifting garage gates are the most popular. These doors are installed on the rails, and special mechanisms lift the door above the entrance. Typically, such doors are divided into several sections that bend and drive under the ceiling of the garage, moving from a vertical position, to a horizontal.

Sliding gates

The sliding garage gates are similar on the principle of action with a coupe door — they are as a rule, they are installed on the rails. Nevertheless, in the garage, the gate should not always drive in a horizontal direction. In addition, this option is most rarely used due to the savings of the place. But the gates driving up or into the hole built in the ground are a fairly popular acquisition.

Folding gates

Folding garage gates, as well as lifting, have several sections, but instead of gently driving under the ceiling, they fold out the type of harmonica. Folding can occur in any direction — vertical or horizontal.

Materials of garage gates

The most common material for the garage is steel. It is durable, it costs cheaper than alternative options, although it can be textured for a more impressive option, for example, under a tree.

Wood is a traditional option, but it is not as firm and durable as steel, in addition, it costs more.

Plastic is popular due to its price and the lack of the need to care and processing.

In order not to open the garage gate manually, there is an automation for the gate. All options for these products can be studied on the ASM-Vorot website.
