The cable is required to bring the gates in line with the latest regulations as stated in the dhf code of practice TS 011:2019 and EN12604. The regulations state that, swing and folding gate systems produced since 2018 should be protected against hinge failure, such that if a hinge fails the gate will not drop nor move more than 300mm off its vertical axis. The fall prevention cables are rated up to 900Kg and are available in various lengths to suit all post sizes. They are supplied with threaded bar, washers and lock nuts so the cable can be fixed to the post. Fitting the safety cables around both gate hinges, top and bottom is strongly recommended. SEA UK have always promoted the fact that a product which prevents accidents is preferable to one that reduces the damage. For this reason SEA UK highly rate gate falling prevention products.
