What distinguishes America’s Gate Company of Kansas City?
AGC presently manages ten fabrication facilities across the Midwest, employing between them whole teams of computer-aided designers and AWS D1.1 & AWS D1.2 certified welders. Such enormous teams—all of whom have access to top-notch industry-specific equipment—means we can realize whatever type of gate you need.
Custom designed gates for homeowners and businesses
Although there’s no shortage of custom metal shops and gate manufacturers in the United States, America’s Gate Company distinguishes itself from the competition in that it is the only national customs metal manufacturer. The staff follows time-tested structural principles, as they’re every bit as dedicated to quality as they are to customer satisfaction.
The best cantilevered slide gates in the Midwest
To this day, slide gates remain the most popular and requested secured entrance devices on the market. Designs for these gates include overhead slide gates as well as rolling gates equipped with V-groove bottom rollers. Of all the slide gates on the market, however, cantilevers remain the ones best suited for snowy, icy areas. The counterbalance section of these gates are supported via stationary rollers. America’s Gate Company of Kansas City deals in cantilevered gates of many brands, including Allure, Bastion, and Citadel. All of which have been thoroughly tested for all-weather applications and thus are ideal for industrial, commercial, and ornamental settings.
Performance characteristics of products sold by America’s Gate Company
The products designed, fabricated, and installed by AGC are defined by the following performance characteristics:
- Openings. AGC’s staff designs and manufactures gates of various sizes, including those with openings exceeding one hundred feet.
- Height. Numerous options available on gate heights.
- Weight. Generally speaking, a chain link or ornamental gate’s weight is determined according to the engineered design. However, custom ornamental gates featuring unique sheet steel designs present an interesting challenge. Here at AGC, structural design and truss systems are engineered according to added weight.
- Infill. Designs for slide gates resemble one another in how they support gates through the opening. What distinguishes each gate is the infill. Infill options here at America’s Gate Company of Kansas City include vertical pickets, chain link, plasma cut sheet steel, and welded wire mesh.
- Engineering. After selections have been made on gate height, weight, and infill, the team here at AGC will engineer the design to support cantilevered swing or slide gates. We advocate wheel-free gates—so logic being the product will depend solely on rollers or hinge points.
- Finish. The products designed and installed by America’s Gate Company of Kansas City receive pre-coated treatment. Treatment options vary, the range spanning from media blasting to chemical-based. Likewise, finish coatings are available in many kinds: from powder coating to the HVLP painting process. All coating processes are offered with a 20-year limited warranty.
- Material composition. In the interest of lighter weight and enhanced durability, the products available here at America’s Gate Company of Kansas City are fabricated from aluminum alloy extrusions.
