Suspension systems are structures that are attached to the ceiling or another high support point. Various objects: such as gates, loads are suspended from these systems using a cable, chain, or other means.
Where suspended systems are used:
- for gates of private houses,
- for the gates of industrial buildings: warehouses, hangars, garages, docks,
- to demarcate working areas,
- on conveyor lines,
- in warehouses for logistics.
Suspension Cantilever Gates
Suspension cantilever gates are a type of gate that is suspended from an upper beam, unlike ground-mounted cantilever gates. This makes them ideal for locations where there is limited ground space or where snow cover can interfere with gate operation.
They consist of a metal gate frame that is suspended on special carriages and is driven by roller carriages that slide along a cantilever beam.
What a suspension system consists of and how it worksа
Cantilever beam — a metal rail that is attached to the ceiling or other high support point, into which carriages are installed. For sliding gates, beams with a length of 5 m or more are used.
Suspension carriages — mechanisms consisting of a metal base with a hole for fastening. Rollers with bearings are mounted on it, which ensure the movement of the carriage along the guide beam and move the load or gate.
Beam plugs — rubber or metal parts that tightly close the beam holes at the edges. They prevent the ingress of dirt, dust and other small particles. The plugs also help to reduce the noise level caused by vibration and friction during the movement of the carriages along the cantilever beam.
Rollers guide plate — A mechanism consisting of two or more rollers that are attached to a metal plate. It is installed under the gate so that the gate frame is located between the rollers. The guide plate helps to prevent the gate from swinging during movement.

Advantages of using suspension cantilever gates:
- Convenience: since suspension gates do not have a floor mechanism, they are ideal for places where there is limited space on the ground and where uneven surfaces or significant snow cover can interfere with the operation of swing gates.
- Space efficiency: these gates are ideal for facilities where available space needs to be used efficiently, such as warehouses or company garages.
- Load resistance: the hardwares of suspension cantilever gates are made of european quality metal, which ensures their durability and resistance to external influences.
- Ease of operation: suspension cantilever gates can be automated, providing convenient access without having to get out of your car or house.
