Required Safety Precautions for Gates

Install Warning Signs

Warning signs alert people of automatic gate operation and are required when installing the GTO/PRO gate operator. Furthermore, a walk-through gate must be installed if pedestrian traffic is expected near the vehicular gate. We recommend using the GTO Bulldog Pedestrian Gate Lock (Call the GTO Sales Department) for controlled access.

Entrapment Protection

GTO/PRO SW2502 inherent obstruction settings, even when properly adjusted, may not be sensitive enough to prevent bodily injury in some circumstances. For this reason, safety devices such as safety edge sensors (or photoelectric sensors), which stop and reverse gate direction upon sensing an obstruction, are suggested for enhanced protection against entrapment.

Warning Signs

The warning signs (at right) must be installed on both sides of the gates (see page 7 for details).

!WARNING

Moving Gate Can Cause

Injury Or Death

1.KEEP CLEAR! Gate may move at any time.

2.Do not allow children to operate gate or play in gate area.

3.This gate is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use a separate entrance.
