Cantilever, swing, and tracked slide
Three ways the gate can open. No prices on this page.
| Fact | Cantilever | Swing | Tracked slide |
|---|---|---|---|
| How it opens | Slides beside the fence | Swings in or out like a door | Rolls across the opening on a ground track |
| Driveway while it opens | The leaf parks beside the fence as it closes the opening | Needs a clear swing path | The gate travels through the opening |
| Track in the pavement? | No | No | Yes |
| Choose this when | You need to close a commercial driveway as part of a secure perimeter, and there is room beside the fence for the leaf to park | The opening can swing closed without blocking the secure close you need (and site layout allows the arc) | The site already has a ground track, or wants one |
| Watch-outs | Needs room beside the opening for the gate to park | The swing path can block the close, parking, or a sidewalk | The track can collect debris |
| Automatic opener | Available when the estimate includes it | Available when the estimate includes it | Available when the estimate includes it |

- Will a cantilever leave the driveway open?
- No — it closes across the opening and parks beside the fence so the yard can secure.
- On-site estimate?
- We look at the opening, outdoor inventory, and how you need to secure the site — then write fence + gate + opener if needed.
