Schweiss one piece hydraulic and patented lift strap bifold doors have been on the
market for years. Schweiss now has a newcomer on the scene — the Schweiss Moving
Gate.
The Schweiss Moving Gate still utilizes the patented liftstraps, but instead of folding like
a bifold door or outward like a hydraulic door, it lifts straight upward. The gate is a perfect
solution for a room divider and cladding materials can come in multiple applications or
combined with metal, glass or other materials to your liking.
The Paw, an exclusive dog and cat resort in Minnesota had Schweiss Doors install a 46 ft. liftstrap moving gate. The gate lifts to the ceiling when open and divides a 96 ft. room in half when down.
A perfect example of this was a first-of-its-kind Schweiss “Gate” built by Schweiss Doors
for “The Paw,” an upscale dog and cat resort. The owner of the 27,000 sq. ft. luxury pet
resort needed a room divider gate, wall if you wish, to separate a 96 ft. room in half for dog
training and handling purposes. Who you gonna call? Schweiss Doors.
What made this Schweiss 46 ft wide, 1,500 lb. multiple-function designer gate different
was how Schweiss Doors built it to meet the customer’s needs. Resort owner Tom Yenish wanted a quiet and smooth operating Schweiss gate that stood about head high with the top half of see-through polycarbonate panels and below that utilized steel paneling.
This particular Schweiss gate allows humans and animals to see across to the other side
of the room without having to raise the Schweiss gate. A push button control on the side
wall lifts the Schweiss gate conveniently out of sight and the Schweiss gate lifts in less
than a minute.
Schweiss Doors designed it to lift straight up to the high ceiling, up and out of the way
when not in use. Five popular patented Schweiss Bifold liftstraps and a 2hp top-mounted
Schweiss quality electric motor easily and quietly lift the Schweiss Moving Gate.
The owner was absolutely needing a safe gate that would not cause harm to humans or
animals in the public facility. He also noted that it was reasonably priced and comparative
in price to a pocket door, but much easier to use. He enjoyed working with the
professional Schweiss design team to get this Schweiss designer gate done.
The Schweiss gate now virtually gives animal resort two rooms to work in, or when in the
up position, a larger size room. “If You Can Think It — Schweiss Doors Can Build It!”
