Keep electric gates safe and reliable
Electric gates are used intensively every day. An inspection of electric gates provides insight into the technical condition of the system. This allows you to identify potential defects in a timely manner and reduce the risk of malfunctions, accidents, and unexpected downtime.
Normec conducts independent inspections of a wide variety of electric gates in sectors including industry, logistics, public utilities, healthcare, and commercial real estate.
Independent Inspections
During the inspection, our specialists assess whether the electric gate operates safely and complies with applicable safety regulations. We examine not only the drive system but also the entire installation and the safety features in place.
In addition to carrying out impact force measurements using dedicated testing equipment, to verify that the forces generated by the gate comply with the limits established by the standard, we also assess, among other aspects:
- The overall technical condition of the gate
- The operation of control devices
- Protective measures against hazards covered by the applicable regulations
- The presence and effectiveness of electrical protection against indirect contact
- Emergency stop devices and other safety systems
- Wear, damage, and defects
