Rail-type gates carry the risk of becoming inoperable due to snow, mud, or debris. With the Hashimoto type, which has no rails on the ground, stable operation can be maintained every day even in bad weather.
Many of the opening and closing troubles with rail-type gates are caused by the accumulation of foreign objects in the rails. In particular, in snowy regions, damage to the rails from snow removal equipment frequently occurs, necessitating the demolition and re-pouring of the concrete floor each time replacement work is done. During this time, it is not uncommon to have to close off the facility's entrance and exit.
The Hashimoto non-rail gate does not have rails installed on the ground, fundamentally preventing such problems from occurring.
The hoist car guide rails are positioned above the ground, so they are not affected by snow, mud, or debris, allowing for smooth opening and closing throughout the year.
Since its establishment in 1973, we have a significant number of installation achievements in snowy regions, including Hokuriku, and we have maintained zero collapse accidents. The single-leaf door is narrow, making it easy to secure snow removal space. The basic requirement for installation is that the entrance opening is level or close to level.
