ABOUT SIDE FOLDING GATES

Smart Security That Works Around Your Business

Side folding gates — also called accordion or scissor gates — are the right solution for commercial properties that need serious security without giving up floor space or ceiling clearance. Instead of rolling up into an overhead housing, the panels fold and stack against the jamb, so your entryway stays open, accessible, and inviting all day.

Perfect for businesses that demand:

High-security protection after hours
Compact operation with no ceiling housing required
Durability that stands up to daily use
A professional, modern appearance at the storefront

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Side Folding Gate FAQs

What are side folding gates used for?

Side folding gates secure storefronts, parking garages, service corridors, warehouse openings, and commercial entries. They’re used wherever a business needs strong after-hours protection but can’t give up ceiling space or clear opening width. Common in Miami retail plazas, condominium garages, and mixed-use buildings.

Are side folding gates secure?

Yes. Commercial-grade side folding gates use heavy-gauge steel panels, hardened locking points, and reinforced tracks. Open-lattice designs also let police and passersby see inside after hours, which deters break-ins better than a solid door that hides activity.

Can side folding gates be customized?

Yes. Panel style, finish color, lattice pattern, perforation, locking configuration, and stacking direction can all be specified. We also build to non-standard opening widths, curved frontages, and wide commercial entries.

How much space is needed for side folding gates?

Very little. Panels stack to roughly 12 to 18 percent of the opening width when fully folded, and stack against the jamb rather than overhead — which is why they work in parking garages and older buildings with low clearance.

Do side folding gates require a lot of maintenance?

No. They’re low-maintenance by design, but we recommend a professional inspection twice a year — track cleaning, lubrication, and lock adjustment — to keep operation smooth and prevent panels from binding.
