Order an Emergency Exit Gate Designed for Your Yard

t277-48

An emergency exit gate is a second, quickly operable gate that lets people leave the yard or garden safely if the main entrance is blocked or unusable. It is designed to your yard's layout, opening direction and access needs, and is made to measure in our Tel Aviv factory. Send us photos and your site details to start the process.

What an Emergency Exit Gate Is For

An emergency exit gate gives people a second way out of a yard, garden or enclosed outdoor area. It matters when the main gate is locked, jammed, blocked by a vehicle, or when a fast evacuation is needed, for example in a fire, a gas smell or a medical emergency.

Many homeowners also use it for everyday convenience, such as reaching the street from the back of the property, bringing in bins or moving bulky items without going through the house.

Planning the Location and Opening Direction

The best position is usually where the yard boundary meets a clear path to the street or a safe assembly point. Avoid spots blocked by planters, air conditioning units or stored items.

Confirm the path width and that it stays clear all year.
Decide whether the gate swings inward or outward.
Check that the gate does not open onto a pedestrian walkway or a neighbour's entrance.

Outward opening is often preferred for quick exit, but the final choice depends on your site.

Choosing the Right Lock and Hardware

An exit gate should open from the inside without a key, so a person in a hurry can leave immediately. Panic-style latches or easy-release handles are common choices. From the outside, the gate should still be secure against unwanted entry.

Consider whether you need a lock that can be opened from both sides with a key for authorised residents, and make sure everyone in the household knows how the gate works. Hardware should be sturdy, corrosion resistant and suited to outdoor use.

Materials and Finishing for Outdoor Use

Gates for yards face rain, sun and sea air, so material and finish matter. Steel and iron offer strength, while aluminum is lighter and resists corrosion well. Stainless steel fittings help prevent rust on hinges and latches.

We can finish the gate with hot-dip galvanizing and powder coating, which protect the metal against weather and keep the appearance consistent over time. Choose a design that suits both safety and the style of your home.

Safety Standards and Engineer Checks

Gates and railings in Israel are expected to meet the relevant safety requirements, including the general guidance of Israeli standard SI 1142 for guarding and protection. Exact dimensions, load values and spacing should be confirmed with the project engineer rather than assumed.

Tell us early if the gate serves a shared building area or a public route, because those cases often need additional review.

How to Order Your Emergency Exit Gate

Our process is simple and designed around your yard:

Send an inquiry with photos of the area and the intended gate position.
We arrange an on-site measurement.
You receive a drawing and written specification for approval.
After your approval, the gate is produced in our factory at 37 Rival Street, Tel Aviv.
The gate is finished and then installed on site.

Clear measurements and a clear decision on opening direction help avoid delays.

Frequently asked questions

Can an emergency exit gate be made to fit an existing opening?

Yes. We measure the existing opening on site and design the gate to fit its exact width, height and swing path. Photos help us plan before the visit.

Should the exit gate open inward or outward?

It depends on the space in front and behind the gate. Outward opening is often preferred for quick exit, but we confirm the best direction after measuring your site.

Can the gate still be locked for security?

Yes. The gate can be secured from the outside while still allowing an easy release from the inside, so it protects the yard without trapping anyone.

Is the gate suitable for outdoor weather?

Yes. We use galvanizing and powder coating for steel and iron, and corrosion-resistant fittings, so the gate stands up to rain, sun and coastal air.

Common mistakes to avoid

Many homeowners choose a lock that requires a key from the inside, or position the gate where the path is later blocked by plants or stored items. Both problems defeat the purpose of an emergency exit.

Our recommendation

Measure the clear path width and walk it with someone who will use the gate in an emergency, then send us photos so we can recommend the opening direction and hardware that work for your yard.

Summary

An emergency exit gate gives your yard a reliable second way out, designed to your site, opening needs and safety requirements. Our Tel Aviv factory makes it to measure, from planning to installation.
