A cantilever gate carries no track across the opening. The gate hangs from a steel track fixed along its bottom edge and rolls on two carriages set on a foundation beside the entrance, leaving a clear opening. The price is for the complete kit. Two lengths give you 6m of track, so reaching the full 8m limit means buying one more 3m length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cfigure style=\"margin:16px 0\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/3002\/8778\/files\/medium-cantilever-gate-kit-8m-600kg-drawing.jpg?width=1200\" alt=\"Drawing of the 8-wheel carriage from the medium cantilever gate kit, 230mm long over the wheels on a 150 x 121mm base plate\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:760px;height:auto;margin:0 auto\"\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy this kit works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNothing lies across the entrance.\u003c\/strong\u003e With no ground track there is nothing to clog with gravel, fill with leaves or freeze solid, and nothing for wagons to run over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEight wheels on each carriage.\u003c\/strong\u003e Each carriage runs four pairs of wheels inside the track, on a pivoting frame, so the load is spread along the track instead of bearing on a single point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParts sized to each other.\u003c\/strong\u003e Track, carriages, support wheel and end stop are all medium grade.
