Certified Automated Gate Systems Designers (CAGSD)

Certification

Not only does Compass provide beautiful security gates and ornamental security fences, we are also certified as CAGSD (Certified Automated Gate Systems Designer). We are uniquely qualified to produce security gate systems compliant with MUTCD, ASTM F2200 and UL 325 standards.

This level of knowledge and expertise provides a higher level of safety and detail into multiple areas of an automated security gate system. There are many driveway gate installers that provide quick, cheap, and easy automation systems. These can become a liability not only to the property owner, but also to any designer or architect involved in the project. If any injury or fatality occurs, a lawsuit is initiated, sometimes in the hundreds of millions of dollars. It is extremely important that latest safety standards are followed.

These safety protocols affect specifying the correct operator, knowing safe opening/closing speed, and pressure setting. They also include correct sensors such as safety loops, photo eyes, and even emergency response sensors, to name a few. There are many aspects of automation that safety standards pertain to. Utilizing certified personnel is an excellent way to you have a safe gate operator system to protect you, your family, and your property.
