Frontier-Pitts LoTracker controls vehicle and pedestrian access on Air Products sites 
(02/02/2007)
Air Products have conducted an extensive security refurbishment project designed to improve site access management and enhance the safety of personnel on all their sites. Part of these refurbishments included the requirement for a vehicle access gate and pedestrian access control system, which has been successfully provided by Frontier-Pitts Ltd.
Frontier-Pitts designed and installed their LoTracker Cantilevered Sliding gate that fulfilled Air Products exact requirements on many of their sites nationwide, including their site in Crewe. The LoTracker is the most robust model from the company’s extensive range of sliding gates, offering complete control over vehicle access to vulnerable areas, thereby providing the ideal perimeter security solution.
Designed for continuous use, the LoTracker is available for apertures of up to 15 metres wide and will withstand impact from the most determined vehicle attack. The LoTracker’s solid, fully welded steel frame with bar infill, back by square galvanized weldmesh offers obvious benefits over the less robust aluminums construction of inferior gates. Furthermore, an integral drive unit avoids the problems inherent with the older rack-and-pinion approach still utilized by dated products.
Frontier Pitts paint finishing process provides 20 years of protection to BS5493 (Code of practice for protective coating of iron and steel structures against corrosion). Gate top protection of rotating steel tube complete with strips of serrated edge at the top of the gate leaf to prevent climbing.
