Bircher ExpertLine Safety Edges

Ensuring safety of people in and around automated gates and doors is a key fundamental principle of safety edges, they need to operate as and when required and without fail to ensure they keep automated systems working safely.  They should deform until the moving element - such as a gate drive - is able to stop the dangerous movement.  To achieve this, ExpertLine products deliver quick response times and are designed to achieve maximum overtravel.  Not only does ExpertLine achieve the required standards, it does this with a fully concealed carrier or mounting rail enabling it to blend discreetly into ambitious and sophisticated gate designs.  The safety edge profile is manufactured from highly durable EPDM rubber, which maintains its mechanical and colourfast properties over many years.  ExpertLine can be purchased in one of three ways - pre-assembled, edge kit and self-assembly, whichever solutions that suits your requirements.

• Pre-Assembled: We manufacture the safety edges to the length required the the contact end caps fitted.  To complete the edge, you just need to add the appropriate accessories - cables and 8k2 resistor and you are ready to go!
• Edge Kit: The three different profiles are available in two sizes - 2.0 and 2.5 metre lengths with 5 metre connecting cable.  Ideal to keep in your vehicle ready to use for a breakdown or unplanned upgrade.  Remember to buy a pair of shears to cut the rubber to the desired size, the aluminium channel can be cut with a regular hacksaw.
• Self-Assembly: Bulk purchase the profile, mounting rail and other key components to assemble safety edges as and when you require.
