<\/strong>Bi folding gates consist of two gate panels that are hinged together. When activated, these gate panels fold back onto themselves to allow access. Bi folding gates require only a small footprint and are often a good choice when space is limited. Many bi folding gates have relatively fast opening and closing speeds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/blitzproofsecurity.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/residential-and-industrial-sliding-gate-operators_0-33296bc2-edited.jpeg\")

<\/strong>The slide gate is mounted parallel to the inside of the fence and slides horizontally back and forth across the gate opening. The slide gate uses rollers on the bottom of the gate to support it. Slide gates are sometime also called “rolling gates” or “V track gates”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/blitzproofsecurity.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Sommer_Hoftor_Nummernschild_SOMMER_CMYK_A4-1-edited.jpg\")

<\/strong>Swing gates are most commonly used in residential applications because of their low cost and ease of installation. Because swing gates travel over a large arc, space must be available to allow vehicles approaching the gate to remain clear while the gate opens or closes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
