Vertical members alternate between 2” x 2” and 1” x 2” in cross section and are spaced at a distance not to exceed the gate height
Outside frame-to-frame width measures 24”
Cross-bracing of 3/16” (min) diameter stainless steel cable for vertical adjustment
Extruded aluminum alloy track welded to the primary member
Gate supported by two tracks containing self-aligning, 4-wheeled, sealed lubricant ball bearing truck assemblies
