Slide Gates Just Got a Whole Lot Simpler

Do you remember when the height of a slide door, height of the partition system, and location of the door all dictated how you ordered and installed your woven wire partition?  If you haven’t installed a woven wire partition before, then that question alone probably sounds overly complicated.  After all, a stocked partition product should have common, simplified hardware in order to truly be considered flexible in design.

BEHOLD: FordLogan slide gates have been simplified to use one method of attachment regardless of size or configuration.  No more plates to sandwich the mesh.  No more nylon spacers.  And possibly best of all, we’ve cut down on how much hardware you need to sort through to install your slide gate.

FordLogan slide gates now all ship with three line posts and a common L-bracket to mount the track brackets (for Installation Guide, click HERE).  While the line posts do add some additional material and weight to your order, we have also designed out the need for a channel header above the door opening to keep the price affordable.

And get this, you can now configure your system to lock at an end OR at a corner post.

Sound too good to be true?  Well, we prefer simple and we know you’ll appreciate it too.

Warehouse Theft Prevention from Coast to Coast

All too often we hear news about another warehouse that has been burglarized; leaving the owners without expensive equipment, tools, and finished goods. If you've ever heard of the "7 P's", then you know that proper planning can help prevent poor performance. In the case of theft prevention, proper planning can start on a variety of levels and doesn't have to cost an exorbitant amount of money.

Some businesses start their planning with exterior protection, such as high-end surveillance equipment. However, what happens when criminals have breached the walls of your warehouse? Is there anything protecting your equipment on the INSIDE of your warehouse?

For interior protection, turn to FordLogan partitions as they have been providing customers with secured storage cages for decades. Systems are completely customizable and come with a variety of door lock options. Woven wire security cages are one of the simplest, and many times cheapest, ways to prevent unauthorized access to equipment and tools in your facility.

Recently, in Carson, CA a group of four people were arrested for stealing thousands of dollars worth of electronics from a warehouse.  Similarly, a trio was arrested in TN for stealing a safe from a business. Had these businesses kept their items in a secured FordLogan enclosure, they may have been able to prevent the thefts from occurring as the cages act as a natural deterrent. For proper theft prevention, planning should start with FordLogan wire security cages.
