Use the Digitech Vertical Lift & Fold Gate Operator for Superior Operation
and Dependability
Self-storage locations need more dependability than many gate systems can
offer. The Digitech VLF Gate System stands up to the challenges of frequent
and rapid operation, ease of installation, and limited maintenance. The
Digitech VLF Gate System will handle your traffic flow at an affordable
cost.
The Digitech VLF is a complete gate system that ships ready to install and
includes the integrated operator, barrier, catch post and controls. With an
operator footprint of 12 x 20, it requires minimal space in the critical
entry area.
This easy-to-install gate features a variety of styles to match
architectural fencing designs. All components are carefully chosen and
treated for a long corrosion-free life.
Unlike many vertical pivot gates, the Digitech VLF Gate takes advantage of
superior engineering in its patented Lift & Fold mechanism. The lighter
weight and mechanical design offer a much less intimidating and imposing
gate, even though it gives equal protection and access control.

Look at these features:
- Power/Back-up - A battery-powered, 12-volt system that
can be either trickle charged (AC) or solar charged. If the power goes
out, the gate continues to operate. Fire and safety systems (Knox Box,
etc.) also continue to operate.
- Durable Operation - Designed for 1,000 + openings per
day.
- Manual Release - A lockable manual release is
incorporated into the upper rail and can be reached from either side.
- Component Protection - Comes standard with a two coat
zinc/powder coated sheet metal enclosure surrounding the operator frame
protecting all control components.
- Advanced Electronics - Includes one infrared sensor and
reflector, solid state self diagnostic electronics enclosed in a weather
tight box, a radio receiver with antenna, and two transmitters.
- Long Lasting Finish - Powder coating and marinizing
applied appropriately to the materials used in the gate keep it rust free
longer than competitive gates.
- Safe to Operate - Safety features include loop
detectors, infrared sensing, current sensing and manual releases.
- Easy to Operate - Operational speed of 8 - 12 seconds,
adjustable, from start to full open or full closed.
- Easy to Maintain - All control functions are easily
viewable by LEDs on the main circuit board.
- Construction Choices - For the gate and any required
matching fence panels, choose aluminum or steel.

Quick,
Quiet, Dependable Operation
Dual and Master/Slave System
By combining two gates, you can span up to 36' of driveway width. These can
operate independently (entry/exit) or simultaneously (master/slave). They
may have a 2-sided center catch post (independent operation) or have no
center post (independent or master slave). An electric magnetic lock can be
mounted in the center pickets for additional security. A shock absorber
extends from the bottom of the center pickets in the no-catch post systems
and centers in a stainless steel guide pocket mounted in the center of the
roadway.
Retractor System
Digitech International, Inc. provides accessories that allow a pilaster to
be built around the operator for custom architectural requirements. This
system consists of a base track on which the operator is mounted, a
fiberglass box that surrounds the operator around which the masonry or other
materials are constructed, and a linear actuator that can be powered by your
cordless drill for extending and retracting the operator for service. This
box performs as a garage for the operator and keeps it from contamination
while allowing free movement of the operator and associated wiring for
servicing.

Emergency Vehicle
Access (EVA)
An optional emergency access barrier up to 18' can be annexed to the VLF
gate to provide a combined access of up to 36'. This optional barrier
section includes a catch post which sets in a fold down driveway mounted
receiver. Upon release by emergency personnel, the barrier and catch post
lifts and folds mechanically to allow full-width access. The main barrier is
triggered to open at the same time and will remain open until the EVA
section is reset in its normal operating position.
