What Is a Pivot Gate?

A pivot gate lifts and turns on a single post, which suits self storage and industrial sites that open dozens of times a day and have no room for a slide track.

This custom pivot gate was engineered for a site where standard swing or slide options were not feasible. Pivot gates open from the center, ideal where a full swing arc or cantilever clearance is not available.

I got 3 estimates and I went with Thomas not just because they were the lowest but also because the guy explained what they were going to do and why. It gave me more confidence they would do a good job and they did not disappoint. They replaced both gates and a small section of fence with each one. Reinforced each gate with steel and it looks and works great!

A great company to do business with! We had an issue post installation. Reb came out to take a look, arranged for a repair & it was completed in a very short period of time. We've been very pleased with their workmanship, professionalism & attention to detail.

Everyone at Thomas Fence has been professional, polite, and efficient. The crew that built my fence worked quickly, cleaned up when they finished. Today a representative from Thomas Fence came out to inspect their work. I highly recommend this business.
