Apollo® 1.8m High x 5.0m Wide 358 Prison Mesh Single Leaf Gate Kit

Securing extra-wide vehicle access points without compromising on high-level security presents a unique challenge. The Apollo® 1.8m High x 5.0m Wide 358 Prison Mesh Gate Kit is specifically engineered to meet this demand, offering a robust and reliable solution that combines a vast 5.0m opening with the formidable anti-climb and anti-cut properties of 358 'prison mesh'. It is the ideal choice for industrial, commercial, and logistical sites that require frequent access for HGVs and other large machinery while maintaining a secure perimeter.

Features and Benefits

Robust Construction: The gate frame is manufactured from high-quality, pre-galvanised steel with mitred corners for a safe, sleek finish. The frame is filled with the strong 358 Prison Mesh, which is highly resistant to impact, vandalism, and cutting attempts. Its tight-knit design also acts as a powerful anti-climb deterrent.

Durable Finish: A tough Polyester Powder Coating is applied over the galvanised steel, providing a second, durable layer of protection against rust, corrosion, and wear. This finish is available in a range of colours to match your existing perimeter or corporate branding.

Enhanced Safety and Installation: This gate is engineered to comply with the BS EN 12604 safety standard. It features a three-hinge system, which ensures the gate leaf remains secure, even in the rare event of a hinge failure. The modular design also includes universal handing, allowing it to be installed to open from the left or right, offering total flexibility on site.

Secure Locking System: Each kit includes a heavy-duty locking drop bolt, which is essential for anchoring a wide 5.0m gate leaf securely in place when closed or open. The gate is also supplied with a versatile sliding latch, which can be secured with a padlock or easily upgraded to a Gatemaster digital or key-operated lock.

Ground Suitability: To ensure a stable and secure foundation, the gate kit is available with different post types. Dig-In Posts are required for softer ground like soil or grass, while Bolt-Down Posts are used for hard surfaces like concrete. 

Function

This Apollo® 1.8m x 5.0m Single Leaf 358 Prison Mesh Gate is engineered to provide a high-security access point for locations that require frequent passage for large vehicles. Its exceptionally wide 5.0m opening can comfortably accommodate HGVs, plant machinery, and other large service vehicles.

With its high-strength steel construction and rigid 358 mesh infill, this gate provides a fantastic level of site protection permanently. The 1.8m (approx. 6ft) height provides a formidable barrier, while the mesh design still allows for clear visibility, which is crucial for site monitoring and CCTV surveillance. It is the definitive choice for securing wide entrances without compromising on security.

358 Prison Mesh

Prison Mesh is also known as 358 Mesh, is the ultimate choice for high-security locations due to the fantastic strength and rigidity that it offers. Welded at each intersection, the wires are extremely resistant to cutting and vandalism attempts. As with other mesh fencing security solutions, 358 Prison Mesh is an ideal option for a range of areas, including police stations and correctional units, commercial establishments, schools, and airports.
