Mechanical Code Lock for Sliding Gates, 60mm Box Section, Keypad Both Sides, Black

A fully mechanical code lock for sliding gates built from 60mm box section, in black, with keypads on both sides of the gate. It needs no battery, no cabling and no power supply, which makes it the straightforward way to put access control on a remote gate. A twisting hook finger drives into a self-correcting keep, and it pulls the gate into line as it locks, so a sliding gate that drifts a little still closes properly. Entrance and exit can have different codes, the panels have dust and rain covers, and the code clears itself each time the handle is pushed. A stainless steel collar around the hook stops the catchbolt being cut through. The keep is sold separately.

Why this lock works

No power on the gate. Everything is 100% mechanical, so there is nothing to wire, no batteries to replace and no controller to fail.

Self-correcting closing. The twisting hook and its keep draw a sliding gate into a perfectly aligned close, which is what a sliding gate needs when the track or post has moved.

Codes that suit a working site. Set a code of 4 to 6 digits, change it quickly, and use a different code for entry and exit if you want to control how people leave as well as how they arrive.

Built to resist tampering. An integrated security press plate guards against code detection, the code resets automatically after the handle is pushed, and the housing is aluminium with a stainless steel mechanism.

Where it is used

Sliding pedestrian gates and vehicle gates on depots, yards, farms, plant compounds and residential sites, particularly where power is not available at the gate. It is for sliding gates on 60mm box section only. A swing gate needs a different lock.

Specifications

Choosing the right sliding gate code lock

Size the lock to the box section first, then choose a colour. This is the 60mm black version. The 50mm locks are a separate part, because the case and bolts are set up for that frame. All of these work on the same principle and need the matching sliding gate keep, which is listed below.

Fitting and care

Drill the leading stile of the gate using the data sheet, fit the lock and handles and set your codes before you close everything up. Mount the keep on the post, horizontally or vertically as your gate needs, then close the gate slowly and check that the hook meets the keep and pulls the gate in square. Adjust the keep rather than forcing the gate.

Keep the dust and rain covers shut when the lock is not in use and clear any grit from the keypad. Change the codes when staff or contractors leave, and check the handle and fixings during routine maintenance. Do not use a general purpose oil spray on the keypad mechanism.
