Applications

Wide clear openings without electrification

Classic sliding barrier for wide openings without power

The Classic sliding barrier closes a clear opening of up to 12 metres without a power connection or automation. The manual construction is designed for sites where the barrier is opened infrequently, from a few times a week to a few times a month. In the two-part version the barrier slides in both directions along its track, so even large industrial openings can be closed with a single structure. Because it works mechanically, a power cut or automation fault does not prevent the barrier from being used.

Classic or Protector sliding barrier, which is right for you?

The choice between Classic and Protector depends on how often the barrier is used and whether automation is needed. Classic is manual and suits sites where the barrier is opened a few times a week or less, such as side openings at storage areas, farm gates or seasonal access routes. Protector has a heavier construction and is designed for motorised operation and frequent daily traffic. If the site sees traffic several times a day, Protector withstands the load better. If the opening is only used occasionally, Classic is the more cost-effective and lower-maintenance solution.

Technical features of the manual sliding barrier

The Classic sliding barrier is available as a one-part or two-part version. The two-part version covers an opening of up to 12 metres, with the two sections of the boom sliding in opposite directions. The track is fixed to a wall, pillars or separate support structures depending on the site. The barrier needs no power connection, control unit or remote control, which reduces installation and upkeep costs. If needed, motorisation can be added to the Classic barrier later without replacing the whole structure.

Typical applications

The Classic sliding barrier suits sites where simplicity and reliability matter more than automation. Typical installations include rarely used side openings on industrial plots, access gates at farms and horse stables, seasonal closures at storage areas and temporary access control points on construction sites. Manual operation is also an advantage at sites where the power supply is unreliable or where the maintenance needs that come with automation are to be avoided.

Classic sliding barrier price

A manual sliding barrier costs less than automated alternatives because it has no motor, control unit or electrical installation. The total price depends on the barrier width, the installation environment and any customisation. Pur-ait delivers Classic sliding barriers installed throughout Finland.

As a two-part version, the Classic sliding barrier covers an opening of up to 12 metres. This is the largest width of a manual sliding barrier in the Pur-ait range.

No. The Classic is fully manual, so it works without electricity, a motor or a control unit. The barrier also works during power cuts.
Can the manual sliding barrier be motorised later?
Yes. Motorisation can be retrofitted to the Classic sliding barrier without replacing the whole structure if operating needs change.
When should you choose Classic instead of Protector?
Classic suits sites where the barrier is opened rarely, a few times a week or a month. If the barrier is used several times a day, Protector withstands the more frequent load better.
