Boom Gates Installation Lake Macquarie

What are Boom Gates?

A boom gate can either be a bar or a pole pivoted to stand or to move down, blocking access to a vehicle or pedestrian. They’re commonly used to control access across lift bridges, train tracks, toll booths, and car parks. 

There are two types of boom gates: manual and automatic. Though boom gates were hand-operated years ago, today automatic gates are a popular choice for car parks, industrial operations, and commercial sites.

Traffic control boom gates are an affordable alternative to traditional gates, most commonly used in modern infrastructure projects. With the advent of technology, the most efficient boom gates provide all-inclusive access solutions.

How do boom gates work?

Some boom gates may feature second bars that can pivot halfway, improving approach visibility at night. For instance, manual boom gates feature a simple locking system that is designed to simplify work at industrial and commercial sites.

In contrast, an automatic boom gate has a compact control mechanism that ensures smooth operation. It’s a great option for commercial outlets like an office or shopping malls for efficient gate automation and operation.

For instance, automatic boom barriers are used in parking areas of hotels, supermarkets, and industrial infrastructures. Additionally, boom pole gates can also restrict entry into spaces where construction is going on or road works.

What are the primary applications of boom gates?

  • Parking areas where vehicular access is strictly monitored
  • Restricted areas where workers need an ID or access card to enter
  • Traffic-filled areas where emergency access is required immediately
  • Toll booths where vehicular access is strictly monitored
  • As a barrier to prevent injury or death, i.e. train track or lift bridge boom gates

Common Benefits of Boom Gates

Automated boom gates offer a range of features like fast opening and closing abilities, GSM access control and integration, and more. You can also opt for additional inclusions like solar power or LED light strips for this system.

Some boom gate suppliers may even incorporate inductive loops for added safety during barrier operation. In such control safety systems, the circuits are linked to initiatory loops, located inside the trail surface for better performance.

Here are the common benefits of boom gates:

Monitoring and Security

An automatic security boom is just what a commercial space needs, helping you save money, time, and resources. Such a gateway system not only prevents costly accidents but also reduces environmental damage around you. You can install automatic boom gates at the entrances of factories and warehouses.

Enhance Your Safety

Boom barrier manufacturers fabricate security boom gates to keep your family, business, and possessions safe against harm. They ensure both security and comfort by preventing unauthorized access to a particular property. For instance, installing a car parking boom gate to control any vehicular access.

Support Traffic Lights

Traffic jams and traffic-related dangers can be managed with a boom barrier, allowing drivers and pedestrians safe passage. An automated street barrier will use a computerized signal generator to coordinate with traffic lights or signals.
