1. Food Storage Areas

Although food storage areas must remain secure and inaccessible to unauthorized personnel, at the same time entry must be easily granted to those permitted to step inside. This is essential so that items may be added/retrieved as needed without intruders compromising the stock. When it comes to security, PalmSHIELD’s pedestrian gates are highly dependable, featuring the Locinox Latch with lockable drop rods. We also offer numerous options on panic bars.

2. Commercial Storage Areas

On that level, security is essential for storage areas of all kinds. Failure to protect items in commercial storage facilities can result in financial loss, business delays, insurance claims, and lawsuits. Whether the items are stored indoors or in a contained exterior space, use a PalmSHIELD pedestrian gate and surround barrier to safeguard your clients’ items.

High foot traffic is common in storage areas, where delivery and transportation occurs almost every day. You’ll compromise everyone’s time—including your own—with a storage area that lacks efficient entry for authorized personnel. Our gates allow you to enter, process orders in a time-efficient manner, and lock up again.

3. Industrial Complexes

Gates for manufacturing facilities and industrial complexes help keep out animals and non-workers. Doing so helps deter thieves, reduces interruptions and distractions, and maintains productivity. Our Vulcan pedestrian gates can be custom-manufactured to match accompanying screening, permitting whatever degree of visibility and ventilation into the grounds you desire. You can also use these gates to help section off areas restricted to certain personnel.

4. Schools and Gymnasiums

Screened off areas with pedestrian gates help deter children from wandering off, and of course help keep out intruders. You can also use these gates to help secure storage for school property, such as gym equipment.

5. Assisted Living Facilities

Assistant living facilities need perimeter security for delineating property grounds and to help prevent residents from wandering off. Our pedestrian gates allow residents and visitors to see outside property grounds while providing a reassuring sense of security.
