The KinderGate self-closing gate is manufactured to comply with BS EN 1176 for playground equipment, making it free from finger traps, crush points and shear actions that could cause injury.
It has an invisible, built-in hydraulic gate closer built into the gate frame, providing a fully shielded gate closer that prevents vandalism. In addition, the aesthetic closing system opens and closes the gate comfortably and features an adjustable closing speed to comply with RoSPA guidelines.
This self-closing mechanism makes KinderGate virtually impossible to slam shut and stops the gate from bouncing back off the post when pushed hard. An anti-trap mechanism ensures the gate cannot swing beyond its stop point.
Specifications
- Height: 1000 / 1200mm
- Opening width: 1225mm (clear width when fully open)
- Bar diameter: 16mm
- Bar centres: 101mm
- Post size: 70 x 70mm
- Post centres: 1400mm
- Fixings: anti-tamper security fixings
- Hydraulic self-closing mechanism
- Standard colours: yellow (RAL1021) or red (RAL3000) to highlight the exit point for a playground (other colours are available upon request).
- RoSPA-compliant - ideal for playgrounds, recreation areas, parks and schools.
- Complies with BS EN 1176 for playground equipment.
Finish
Hot-dip galvanised to ISO1461 and optional polyester powder coated, after stringent cleaning and treatment to give a well-adhered coating with a minimum of 60 microns.
All Zaun posts / panels / gates and painted auxiliary components (eg clamp-bars, slide bolts etc) benefit from a protective zinc layer and electrostatically-applied polyester powder coating to BS1722 p16. Care is taken with pre-treatment to ensure sound adhesion between the zinc and paint layers. In a UK C1 environment, as defined in ISO 12944 p2, this should ensure a useful life expectancy of the fence of at least 15-20 years. Life expectancy in all environments can be extended by maintaining the fencing with regular washing. Useful life will be reduced if the fencing is damaged. Any coating damage should be repaired to reduce the effect on useful life.
Enhanced painting systems such as marine coatings are also available for improved life expectancy in C2-C5M environments.
Playground gate posts and fixings
Features a post and stepping cleat configuration, providing a simple and easy installation method. Supplied with vandal-proof security fixings and installed using either power or hand tools.
Combination gates
Also available as a double-leaf or combination gate to provide access for plant and other maintenance machinery. One half of the gate must be locked in a closed position and only opened for maintenance purposes.
