Why Choose the APC-TOUCH Safety Edge Kit?
Advanced Safety You Can Trust
The mechanical edge uses a pressure-sensitive wire embedded in a robust rubber profile. When the gate encounters even minimal pressure, it instantly sends a stop/reverse signal via the WES wireless module, helping prevent crush hazards.
Wireless Installation = Less Cabling, More Reliability
The WES Radio-Control System eliminates the need to run cables along the gate leaf, making installation cleaner, faster, and more reliable in the long term.
Designed for Australian Weather
With wide operating temperature ranges and durable materials, the kit withstands heat, rain, dust, coastal environments, and daily operation.
Ideal Applications
-
Residential & commercial sliding gates
- Retrofits on older gates with no existing safety edges
