This style gate might not get broken. But, who knows!

[Bill-n-Brillo]

We went through that set of gates soon after they were put into service. Given that they swing parallel to the ground when opening rather than raising vertically, they operated pretty darned slow. I envisioned that sooner or later, someone would try to tailgate their way through, following another cart. Who knows exactly what caused the damage?

I wonder if there's a safety wire imbedded in the pavement that would prevent the gate from closing on a cart that is in the path of the gate's swing.

Beats the hell outa "old biddie".


Hugs and love, Dougbee.


Your friend,

But... But... Isn't a cootette simply a female version of an old coot??? I personally prefer dudes and dudettes.

Now the other gate is also damaged. Not as bad as the out gate. It is still in service. Man, you really have to hit those gates hard to do that amount of damage. The welds are broken.

What gate are you talking about? Do you mean the other side of the "wall gate" or another gate? Gates in TV are damaged almost every other day----It would be interesting to know just what the costs were per year.

It's the in gate.
