Installing a Comelit Gate Intercom

Alarm · 16 Mar 2011

Think you have answered your own question there.

Drop bar, Floor plate, both on the final closing leaf. Lock on the first opening.
Just checked Cisa again.
Cannot see that working. It is a hook bolt. It will rotate into a slot in the closing leaf of the other.
How would you alline?
Maybe the lock can have 2000kg of side force, has the probable 50mm section by say 12mm of you gate got that. Remember a chains weekest link analagy?

Pair of gates you need two motors the correct locking and correct hindges.
Plus a heap of safetys, with the new regs. Speed of openinng / closing. Pressure exerted, any traps. No gaps more than 50mm at all leading/closing.

Your quote, was intended for the op.
My answer to you was yes try it.
Perhaps I should have added with a decent psu giving 15vdc out.

I was referring to the cisa lock. Didn't see any mention of DC power. Also meant had probs with cisa locks on dc before.

Alumni,

Have you ever fitted a CISA lock to double gates? I was hoping that the hook on the closing gate grabbing around the striker on the already closed and locked in position gate would work. ie If you try and push them open both together the hook and striker would be forced together surely, and therefore not able to be pushed open? By the way there would be stops welded to the gate post to stop the gates being opened outwards onto the pavement.

Alarm, its not that i dont believe what you are saying but just wanted a second opinion from an independant as obviously if i ask the companies selling the locks will probably tell me they will work

Then we both misunderstood eachother.

You previously said other leaf had a dropbar not secured.
Now its to be locked.
I only answered as per given circumstances.
In that case it should work, not having used that model.
You now also after what I said mention stops fitted.

I can only work on given facts without a site visit or photographs.
Also I am an independent, not tied to any supplier nor manufacturer.
Hope your project succeeds.

Regards

Alarm,
Think you have taken my comment about wanting to ask an independant the wrong way... I wasnt saying that you weren't independant, i was just asking for the advice of "another" independant before i rang suppliers

Cheers for your help
