Gate Types
Temporary Fence Gate Rental Options
Your temporary fence rental includes integrated gates, which attach to the same 6-foot chain-link line, ensuring the entry is as strong as the rest of the perimeter. The correct gate style for your Novato site depends on how the opening will be used and the available swing room. situations that need fencing
Swing Gates
Best for everyday crew entry and pickup access
Single 4-ft walk-through · double 12-ft drive-throughHinged panels pivot open and latch shut on weighted stands, making it the simplest way to move people, wheelbarrows, and pickups through a Novato job site. A single gate fits most tasks. Check rental price ranges on your site for details. The 6-foot panel line runs $4–$6 per linear foot. Use a Double Swing Gate for wide vehicles.
Cantilever Slide Gates
Best for tight entries and wide equipment openings
Rolls sideways · up to a 20-ft clear spanThe wheeled cantilever Slide Gate rolls parallel to the fence line—ideal for tight corners in Novato job sites or against walls where a swinging gate would obstruct traffic—providing a "wide vehicle opening" for loaders, flatbeds, and frequent deliveries, with heavy-duty rollers and a positive latch that maintain alignment over extended rental periods. It’s part of our complete rental fencing for any site. Simple.
Sized Openings
Pedestrian and Vehicle Openings
Whether it’s a Novato jobsite or an event perimeter, we size each opening to "the widest thing that has to get through"—tight enough to maintain control, wide enough to avoid panel interference, and if sightlines matter, pair it with the windscreen and privacy mesh we deliver. Keep access practical.
3–4 ft
Pedestrian openings
We install secure pedestrian walk-through gates for your Novato project. These self-closing units prevent unauthorized entry, while our scheduled footing and screen checks ensure hinges swing freely despite the dust and dry conditions common during our multi-year drought cycles. To discuss your gate requirements, call (866) 330-0268.
12–20 ft
Vehicle & equipment openings
Our drive-through span accommodates pickups, flatbeds, forklifts, and loaders with ease. The Double Swing Gates cover the mid-range, while the cantilever slide gate opens the full 20-foot clear span, ideal for heavy machinery to roll straight through in Novato.
Access Control
Padlock, Keypad, and Badge Access
Every gate ships with a heavy steel hasp ready for a hardened padlock, allowing you to control access based on site needs, whether with a simple padlock, a keypad, or a badge reader. This makes a "controlled single-entry site" worth it in Novato for security and safety, especially during busy event perimeter fencing we deliver. Secure your site efficiently.
- Padlocks & hasps — keyed-alike padlocks so one key opens every gate on the site, or bring your own to the steel hasps.
- Keypad locks — code entry you can change between crews or shifts, so no keys go missing and no lock has to be re-cut.
- Badge access — credential readers for controlled sites that need a record of who came through the gate and when.
- Bolt-cutter-resistant latch — an Ultra Latch-type security latch that hides the shackle a cutter needs, for high-theft and high-vandalism sites.
On asphalt or concrete, we use Hilti anchors to bolt the gate stands into the ground. This prevents the opening from being lifted or shoved.
We help you determine the right security specs for your site when you call (866) 330-0268.
Gate & Access FAQ
Questions about gates and access
Can the gate use the same key as my other site locks?
We supply keyed-alike padlocks for every fence gate across your Novato job site, or you can use your own locks, and because you manage the keypad code yourself, "access never depends on a lost key." Consult gate hardware guidance. Security is simple.
How wide can a vehicle opening be?
We size gates to your equipment. Our standard Double Swing Gates cover 12 feet, while our cantilever slide gates handle a 20 feet span on any Novato, CA site; just tell us the widest vehicle needing access and we will ensure the opening fits.
Will the gate stand up to bolt cutters?
Our standard hasp holds a hardened padlock. For high-theft or high-vandalism sites, we install a bolt-cutter-resistant Ultra Latch that removes the exposed shackle a cutter needs to bite on to secure your perimeter.
Do the gates work with my existing chain-link run?
Our gates match the fence. Every Double Swing Gate is built directly into our 6-foot panel line to ensure security across Novato, CA, with all delivery, professional installation, and final pickup included in your flat rental rate. Call (866) 330-0268.
Can you anchor a gate on pavement?
We do not always drill. Free-standing weighted stands sit on most surfaces without drilling, but for heavy traffic we add Hilti anchors to bolt the stands into asphalt or concrete to keep the gate steady.
