Premium Architectural Swing Gates for Commercial & Industrial Applications

Unlike standard industrial gates, the Sampson™ series is designed to integrate seamlessly into architectural environments. Each gate is fabricated with a fully finished aluminum framework, ensuring clean lines and a refined appearance from every angle.

Aluminum Gate Construction

Fabricated from 6063-T6 aluminum alloy extrusions, selected for strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term performance in outdoor environments. The gate frame incorporates a U-shaped aluminum design that encapsulates the infill and provides a finished architectural edge on all four sides.

Gate Configurations

– Single swing gates for controlled pedestrian or equipment access
– Double swing gates for wider openings and vehicle access
– Heavy-duty pivoting hinges for smooth, reliable operation

Gate Stability

Each Sampson™ gate leaf includes diagonal “X” bracing using stainless or galvanized steel cable. This reinforcement allows for vertical adjustment and helps prevent sagging over time—critical for high-use commercial and industrial applications.

Gorilla Hinge 3000

Key Features

  • Weldable.  If you must weld, with two 4” x 4” plus hinge leafs, there is plenty of area to weld. 
  • 5,000 lb Load Capacity.  With two 4 3/8” x 4” x ½” hinge leafs and a ¾” hinge pin, this hinge bears a massive amount of weight providing consistent reliable performance over time. 
  • Sleek Design.  When closed, there is only a one inch gap between the gate and gate post providing limited access and eliminating unsightly gaps. 
  • Bolt-On Install.  Bolt through the gate frame or use our backing plate to capture the gate frame. 
  • Field Adjustable.  Gates are constantly moving in and out with 1000s of pounds of cantilevered load.  Adjustments will need to be made in time.  Do so effortlessly. 
  • Low Maintenance.  One easy grease fitting per hinge simplifies lubrication increasing the life of your hinge.
