Tilt-A-Way™ Vertical Lift Gates

Engineered to exceed demanding security requirements, Tilt-A-Way™ Vertical Pivot Gates are recognized for setting the standards in design quality and performance. For either low or high security applications, Tilt-A-Way gates are manufactured and tested to withstand the harshest operating conditions and complement any security access system.

Tilt-A-Way Vertical Pivot gates are twist and sway resistant. Barriers are manufactured in either aluminum or steel. Patented horizontal sway brace design and manufacturing techniques combined with patented in-line balance systems out perform any other gate available and last up to 40 times longer. The 50" low profile hydraulic operator accommodates custom barrier designs. If a power failure occurs, Tilt-A-Way barriers can be raised or lowered manually with only 12 to 15 pounds lift. And, a standard safety control switch stops the barrier regardless of its position should the balance system malfunction.

Barrier Construction
The barrier is constructed to resist twist or sway. Tilt-A-Way gates resist high winds. We will custom build a barrier to your design.

ALUMINUM
- Barrier material – 4" Sch 40 round tube
- Square sway bars – 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" x 1/8" square tube
- Uprights – 2" x 2" x 3/16" square tube
- Screen – Amplimesh aluminum

STEEL
- Barrier material – 4" Sch 20 round tube
- Square sway bars – 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" x .087 square tube
- Uprights – 2" x 2" x .120 square tube
- Screen – #9 Galvanized steel

Satisfaction is guaranteed. If not satisfied within 6 months, return the physically undamaged barrier and pedestal; we will refund the purchase price. 3 year limited warranty on workmanship and materials except for electrical components. Design subject to change without notice.

The hydraulic cylinder and control rod are mounted on a heavy support. Cables are connected to the springs with a special built adapter. Cables travel over a sheave and are adjustable for any weight change. Using this cable system extends the spring life by 40 times over the old fashioned and ineffective way of bending the springs over a fulcrum.

15 REASONS TILT-A-WAY IS SUPERIOR!

1. The barrier is made of steel or aluminum for long life. We offer an anti-twist and sway design. This gate is high in security yet keeps its modest look.

2. This gate is balanced by two springs that pull in a straight line for maximum life.

3. The springs have our own patented design. A center pull adds many times to the spring's life.

4. Each spring has its own adjusting unit.

5. The cables travel over two pulleys that have a double row of ball bearings in each pulley.

6. Should one of the cables break, the gate will automatically shut down.

7. The pulleys are adjustable in up, down, forward and back directions to give perfect balance to the gate.

8. The barrier is automatically locked in down position.

9. All hinges are stainless steel.

10. If the balance system of the gate is upset there is a safety control built in.

11. Main power switch is located in control box.

12. All solenoids are constant duty.

13. The connection arm that operates the barrier is connected to the barrier in a rubber shock absorber for smooth operating which gives extended life to the operator and barrier.

14. The limited switches are mounted at each end of travel for very accurate and positive control.

15. Complete installation instructions along with illustrated parts and operating manual are included with gate.
