General High-performance cantilever system shall be manufactured as by Pro Access Systems, 1785 W. Armitage Court, Addison, IL 60101, 800-800-3356, Fax 630-620-0063, or approved equal. System shall facilitate installation of a top -hung, enclosed track, internal roller type cantilever sliding gate system, as per ASTM F 1184-88 Type II, Class 2. Class 1 gates, i.e., designs using external rollers or other support systems, shall not be acceptable. All forms of measurements contained herein are furnished to establish minimum acceptable standards. 2. Frame/Enclosed Track Gate frame shall be fabricated from a minimum of 2 x 3-inch 6061-T6 grade aluminum alloy tubing weighing a minimum of 1.43 pounds per foot. Frame shall be welded at all corners so as to form a rigid unit. Gate shall be fabricated as a single welded unit with Uniweld construction. Intermediate vertical members shall be no less than 2 x 2-inch, 6063-T6 grade aluminum alloy, weighing a minimum of 1.1 pounds per lineal foot. Intermediate verticals shall be spaced apart no more than 6 feet on center. Enclosed track shall be a one-piece extrusion of 6063-T6 structural -grade aluminum alloy, weighing a minimum of 4.74 pounds per foot for gate openings up to 30 feet. Track shall be formed to enclose the internal -roller truck assemblies and structurally adequate to serve as the load -bearing surface for the gate panel, Reaction load rating of the track shall be a minimum of 2,000 pounds. Gate frame shall employ bi-directional cross bracing of 3/16-inch diameter stainless steel preformed aircraft cable, or diagonal tubular aluminum, installed in the vertical plane throughout the gate proper and the counterbalance to allow for vertical chord adjustment, and to add further rigidity to the gate. 3. Internal -Roller Truck Assembly Internal -roller truck assembly shall be self -aligning, swivel ball-and-socket type running on four bearing wheels. Bearing wheels shall have a minimum 2-inch diameter and 9/16-inch width, rated as medium duty, with a basic dynamic load rating of 2,750 pounds per bearing. Truck body shall be a one-piece structural grade 356-T6 aluminum alloy casting, equipped with milled steel guide wheels with oilite bushing to ensure lateral alignment within the track. Guide wheel axle shall extend through the top and bottom of the truck body so as to assure that, regardless of wear, the guide wheels cannot come loose from the axle and lodge in the track. Internal -roller truck assembly shall be affixed to the hanger bracket or PRO ACCESS SYSTEMS www.ProAccessSystems.com other mounting fixture by means of a 5/e-inch-diameter industrial -grade rod end/center bolt, with a maximum static load rating of 10,000 pounds. Attachment of the center bolt to the truck body shall be by means of a swivel joint to ensure equivalent and consistent loading on all bearing wheels and internal track surfaces throughout the travel of the gate. Internal -roller truck assembly shall have the same reaction load as the enclosed track. 4. Mounting Hardware Bottom guide assembly shall consist of a steel mounting bracket with two 3-Inch diameter phenolic roller wheels bearings mounted in such a way as to limit or contain gate lateral movement without binding. Roller wheels shall be braced top and bottom by the essential construction of the bottom guide in such a fashion as to prevent lateral gate movement which could deform the axles of the wheels and defeat the bottom guide assembly. Hanger assembly shall consist of minimum 3/e-inch-thick steel plate, gusseted, which is to be affixed to a 4-inch O.D. post by means of 1/2-inch diameter U-bolts. Optional 6 5/8-Inch round; 4- and 6-inch square are also available- All mounting hardware shall be hot -dip galvanized or plated for corrosion resistance, 5. Support Structure Completed gate assembly shall be erected on 4-inch or 6 5/8-inch O.D, schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe, or 4-inch or 6-Inch square posts, or equal. Wall thickness and footing shall be specified by engineer. Posts shall be installed plumb and must follow critical spacing dimensions provided by manufacturer. 6. Quality Assurance Contractor shall verify that the gate frame structure to which the high performance cantilever system is to be affixed shall have been designed and constructed so as to meet "Minimum Performance Criteria, Type II, Class 2 Gates" as specrfied in ASTM F 1184-88, with particular reference to vertical chord deflection and lateral chord deflection. Any Class 1 gate shall not be acceptable. 7. Warranty System components manufactured and supplied by Pro Access Systems shall have a three-year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. A WARNING If gate system is automated, the gate and installation shall comply with UL 325 and ASTM F 2200. Achieve what seems impossible: • High -wind applications • Large openings • High cycle count • Extreme weather conditions • Heavy loads • High-speed operation • Tight deadlines • Unique architectural requirements It's under control.
