Heavy duty hot-dipped galvanized 4" x 6" I-Beam track is used as an overhead track to suspend overhead chain link and other types of sliding gates. Mounted to 4" or 6-5/8" posts using gate hanger brackets, I-beam gate track serves as a horizontal gate track for linear motion slide gate. Our heavy duty hot-dipped galvanized gate hangers come equipped with U-bolts and plates to secure gate track. Use our gate hangers for heavy duty commercial and industrial applications.
Overhead gates are sliding gates which move in a linear motion, much like conventional steel cantilever gates, internal track aluminum slide gates, and chain link rolling gates. Unlike these other slide gates though, overhead gates hang suspended from a large I-Beam which is hung overhead on 4" O.D. or 6-5/8" round posts. Overhead gate I-Beam must be suspended at a height sufficient to pass under and as a permanent fixture.
