What Is a Pallet Gate?
A pallet gate controls pallet entry and exit in logistics warehouses, factories, and similar facilities. These gates operate using electric or hydraulic systems to facilitate the passage of forklifts and trucks, ensuring safe and efficient movement between indoor and outdoor areas.
Pallet gates come in two mechanisms: single-swing and double-swing. The choice between them depends on the specific needs of the application. Single-swing gates open and close on one side, whereas double-swing gates operate on both sides, offering flexibility in operation.
By managing vehicle access, pallet gates enhance safety and efficiency in logistics environments. It is crucial to prevent vehicle entry during gate operation and avoid accidental activation of the gate’s controls.
