How to Install Sliding Gate: Positioning M16 Foundation Bolts and Trial Assembly Steps

Hello,

After dealing with the curve gate (my previous thread). It's time to assemble. And of course I have some questions how to do this. I wrote to the manufacturer and received fairly accurate assembly instructions:


However, not everything is clear to me:
1) How do I put these M16 foundation bolts (50cm long) in the trench? The excavation under the foot is planned to a depth of 120 cm. How is it done? On some rack? How to do so that nothing changes, etc.?

2) Another thing: "Before concreting the elements, carry out a trial assembly with checking for permeability"? As ? I will have a hole dug .. somehow I will put these bars .. screws .. how should I check if there is a big hole

3) I heard that many people supposedly poured foot .. and then drilled holes for bolts. I am just wondering to what extent is this a certain solution? What do you think about it ? (I mean, I assume that only the guide post is embedded in the foot)


thanks for any advice

Ad. 1 and 3
what is a chemical anchor for

Ad. 2
probably not feasible

Hello. There is a better and easier way to install the door. Put the rollers to the guide, then set them on the U-profile, e.g. 200mm, mark the holes, drill holes for the bolts, insert the bolts from the bottom, screw the rollers to the U-profile and check that the guide slides freely along the rollers. Then weld the bolts to the U-profile from the bottom. The gate leading post should be welded to it, then the whole is set in the place where the gate is to be installed. it will drop a little after closing. (slight play between the rollers and the guide)

when it comes to chemical anchors I thought about them .... but there is such a thing as the minimum distances between the anchors. For these chemical anchors (depending on the manufacturer .. but the minimum distances I found are the circle (M16) 17cm - Titanium Evolution II).
And one trolley has 4 screws, and the distance between them is 7.5 cm (the smaller one).
Well, I don't know if there will be a problem here ...

The second proposed method of assembly seems more reliable ... but you need to have something to weld: /

Still to Jerzy (because I like your idea more and more .., I'm just wondering if this welding is necessary). I quickly made a picture like this (what were you thinking about?):

It may also be the case, but if the rods are smooth, the ends have to be bent. If the rods are threaded all the way, you do not need to, while the advantage of welding the anchors to the U-profile arms is that someday, when the trolley with rollers will have a different spacing of bolt holes, old bolts can be cut and new ones can be welded to the channel section.

I am just struggling with a similar gate - plastmet from trzebnica (I do not recommend it). They also recommend an attempt - only they forgot that the gate weighs 220 kg .... no words. I carved a hole, formwork, and reinforcement (necessary). I transferred the bolts to the plywood template and made holes in the template - I strengthened it with strips and the mounting bolts stick. I'll flood it all tomorrow and it should be ok. I'll make the end post when the main drive with the gate will run. Anchors are a bad IMO idea

Hello.
I have a gate of the same company as virtuss and the same dilemma how did you finally deal with this problem? Maybe some pics?
Regards.

With this C-profile it is a great solution. I have stabilized dimensions of the rollers' post and the base for the drive in one concrete, thanks guys! The construction cannot be moved.
