Heavy-Duty Swing Gates

Swing gates secure your business without impeding the flow of traffic.

Their robust, fully welded framework prevents unauthorized vehicles from driving onto your property. Steel and wrought iron construction allows you to exert tight control over your perimeter.

Capable of withstanding heavy impacts from both cars and trucks, swinging security gates are a simple and effective solution for managing automobiles and restricting access to sensitive areas, such as:

  • Warehouses
  • Shipping Centers
  • Convention Centers
  • Manufacturing Facilities
  • Hospitals
  • Airports
  • Theme Parks
  • Shopping Malls
  • Government Buildings
  • Military Bases

Integrated Security

A single gate can cover openings up to 35 feet wide, while a double swing gate can cover openings up to 70 feet. Rather than employ a swing gate operator, Vortex technicians connect your gate to your existing access control system, enabling you to screen visitors and verify the credentials of every person entering your property or facility. Once their identity has been confirmed, automated hydraulics provide fast and convenient entry. Powder coating and fully sealed, industrial-grade hinges allow swing gates to operate with little maintenance in even the most demanding environments.

Repairs and Service

Commercial and industrial swing gates help control your perimeter. Our technicians are able to provide cost saving repairs without replacement in many cases. We can fabricate obsolete parts and develop preventive solutions to keep regular maintenance repairs to a minimum. Preventative maintenance ensures reliable performance. Our service team provides dedicated, year-round support for issues that can degrade your security, including:

  • Loose or Corroded Hinges: Regular tightening and lubrication is necessary for smooth operation. Worn hinges should be replaced before they deteriorate further and impede gate action.
  • Gate Post Problems: Shifted or unstable gate posts throw off the gate alignment. Repositioning, reinforcing, or stabilizing the posts normally fixes the problem, but if their structural integrity has been compromised, our technicians can replace them.
  • Gate Operator and Motor Issues: Worn parts, poor electrical connections, and misaligned components prevent motorized gates from swinging open when activated. Recalibrating the motor ensures automatic gates continue to function. In cases of severe motor failure, our technicians can secure and install an effective replacement.
  • Sensor and Safety System Problems: Impacts and bad weather deteriorate sensors, preventing them from detecting traffic as it passes through the gate. Replacements need to be installed quickly to ensure the safety of vehicles entering your property. Vortex upgrades outdated or irreparable systems, to bring your gates up to current safety standards.

Vortex service teams identify potential problems before they lead to major troubles. Repairs, upgrades, and replacements ensure your gate provides the best possible protection for years after installation. Contact us today for help securing your business.

This place is great I called and asked what it would cost to fix my front door to my business. I told them what the problem was and they asked me to send a picture. They looked at the picture and told me it was a common problem and gave me a price. I told them go ahead and come out and they were there the following day and fixed the problem. They were able to fix it quicker than they thought so it was a little less than they ballparked me. Miriam was my point of contact she couldn't have been more helpful.

I'm a Building Engineer and use these guys all the time. They are my number one go to vendor for any and all types of door repairs. I've read on some other reviews that they are too expensive but I have not found that they are over priced at all. You get what you pay for, most doors and entrances are heavily used and you want to hire quality repairmen/women when you really need the job done right. They are always quick to respond with lots of insight as to how to fix, repair, and prevent future breakdowns. Never had any issues with a door or entryway breaking down again after they have repaired it and all their work has stood the test of time. I highly recommend their services and even though I can choose from many other local and national vendors in the area, I always prefer Vortex when I need the job done quickly, properly, and without future issues.
