Common Questions
Artemis is a heavy-duty architectural dumpster enclosure designed to provide complete visual screening for commercial, municipal, and industrial waste and recycling areas.
Artemis is available in single-, double-, and triple-dumpster configurations. The enclosure is fabricated to the site and dumpster dimensions required for the project.
Artemis can be configured for single, double, or triple dumpster layouts.
Standard Artemis systems are available in 6-foot and 8-foot heights. Custom configurations can be developed based on project requirements.
Artemis uses galvanized steel posts, rails, and rub rails with corrugated steel panel infill. Gate frames are constructed from welded steel tubing with matching corrugated steel infill.
Yes. Artemis uses corrugated steel infill designed to provide 100% visual screening of the enclosed dumpster area.
Artemis is engineered for wind loads up to 150 mph, subject to project-specific engineering and site conditions.
Yes. Artemis is engineered for wind loads up to 150 mph.
Artemis is installed using structural posts and rails that are anchored to the project foundation or concrete conditions according to the project-specific engineering requirements.
Anchoring requirements depend on the project-specific wind loads, dimensions, foundation conditions, and site requirements. PalmSHIELD’s engineering determines the appropriate anchoring configuration.
A suitable structural foundation is required to support the enclosure and its wind loads. A concrete pad is commonly used for dumpster enclosures, but the appropriate foundation and anchoring method should be determined based on the specific site and engineering requirements.
Artemis uses heavy-duty swing gates constructed with welded steel tube frames and matching corrugated steel infill.
Artemis gates swing outward to provide access to the dumpster area.
Artemis gates use heavy-duty 180-degree barrel hinges with grease fittings, along with a padlockable slide bolt and drop rods.
Yes. Artemis is factory fabricated to the dimensions required for the project and can be configured around the site’s dumpster layout and available space.
Yes. Artemis is available with custom color selections using powder-coated finishes.
Yes. Optional rub rails are available.
Lead time varies according to enclosure size, dumpster configuration, customization, engineering requirements, material availability, and production capacity. Contact PalmSHIELD for the current estimated lead time.
PalmSHIELD will typically need the number and dimensions of the dumpster, desired enclosure height, available site dimensions, gate location, desired finish/color, wind requirements, and project drawing or site information.
