norman Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I read it as it ran out of the tracks due to no stops. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

Yes that’s right, but says the company checked all their other installations and found no faults on any? Covering up or just a one off? 35 minutes ago, datadiffusion said: Some of the worst firms round here are the ones that 'specialise' in gates'... Let them get on with it, not worth messing with imo Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/41692-gate-automation-kills/#findComment-470586 Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadiffusion Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Quite, just that Joe Public presumes a specialist is just that, sadly Of course money comes into it and said specialist is simply quoting at the lower price they know will be accepted by leaving out pesky safety extras...

MrHappy Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 in the DM it said she pulled the gate closed & it fell on top of her, (cctv) I assume when closed only gravity held it in place?

PeterJames Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Some of us install quite a bit of automation and take safety very seriously, and some of us install a couple of gates and get to go to Italy for the weekend!
