Gate Protection & Height Limiters
Height limiters provide functional protection for exit gates and overhead infrastructure. These modular structures can be adapted to any gate or passageway, and can also be used to create traffic routes with non-standard shapes.
Height limiters / gate protection systems can be connected with other types of flexible safety barriers, such as Pedestrian barriers. With their help, you can restrict access for forklifts and industrial vehicles by creating “windows” for safe transfer of goods and materials. This separates pedestrian routes from vehicle traffic, significantly improving comfort and safety for everyone in the area.
Key characteristics and features of height limiters
The most important feature of height limiters is their ability to absorb and disperse impact energy along their entire surface. As a result, both the colliding vehicle and the floor remain undamaged.
Their extreme impact resistance is the result of flexible components that bend under pressure and quickly return to their original shape.
Additionally, height limiters offer an aesthetically pleasing form of gate protection that maintains a consistent appearance over many years. This is possible thanks to the use of polymer material that is resistant to weather conditions and UV radiation, and is fully recyclable. Height limiters can be used both indoors and outdoors.
Main benefits of using height limiters
- High resistance to impacts and weather conditions.
- Reliable protection for gates and driveways in high-traffic areas.
- Improved safety for critical areas exposed to collisions.
- Cost savings by reducing the need for vehicle repairs and structural maintenance.
- Easier maneuvering and parking near gate structures.
Where can height limiters be used?
Height limiters can be installed at virtually any type of gate, as well as in areas connecting warehouses with production zones. In the WB Height Limiter configuration, they are ideal for protecting ceilings, mezzanines, and low-clearance passages. Models equipped with audible or visual alarms notify operators of potential impact.

Gate height limiter – versatility and functionality
Gate height limiters from Anter System are highly versatile. They can be easily adapted to the specific requirements of each work environment, ensuring even more effective protection.
This is possible thanks to the modular design and the wide range of available sizes. You determine how many meters long a given gate height limiter should be. This ensures the perfect fit, regardless of whether your facility is a large distribution center or a compact warehouse.
Our gate height limiters are suitable not only for protecting walkways but also other elements of the infrastructure. They can be combined with additional safety products such as safety gates, creating a fully secured communication route.
Gate height limiters – an investment that pays off
One of the main advantages of our limiters is their ability to absorb impact energy effectively. This means that a gate height limiter will remain fully functional after a collision. Importantly, the vehicle involved in the impact will also remain protected.
As a result, companies using our gate height limiters significantly reduce repair costs and avoid downtime resulting from structural damage.
Safety and ergonomic workflows – gate height limiter
Gate height limiters play a crucial role in improving workplace ergonomics. Clear separation of pedestrian routes from vehicle traffic zones significantly reduces the risk of accidents involving forklifts and other industrial trucks.
In high-traffic areas such as warehouses and production halls, this translates into more comfortable and predictable working conditions. Employees can focus fully on their tasks without worrying about their safety.
Gate height limiters – functionality and easy installation
One of the key advantages of our solutions is their simple installation and adaptability to the layout of any facility. Gate height limiters can be quickly mounted in almost any environment, providing immediate safety benefits. If the space layout changes, the limiter can be easily repositioned or reconfigured.
A gate height limiter is typically suspended at two points, ensuring stable mounting even in case of impact. Limiters in barrier form are anchored to the floor using external anchors.
More detailed installation instructions can be found in product descriptions on our website.
Height limiters with extended functionality
At Anter System, we focus on innovative, technologically advanced solutions. In addition to standard models, you can order a gate height limiter with an alarm signal. This provides forklift operators with an additional warning, helping prevent collisions. The alarm activates when a vehicle comes too close to the protective element and is clearly audible even in noisy industrial environments.
Some barrier-type height limiters also include an integrated retractable safety belt for additional access control.
Height limiters and infrastructure protection
Height limiters protect not only gates but also surrounding infrastructure such as driveways, parking areas, tunnels, and other structural elements.
Proper placement of limiters minimizes the risk of damage that could otherwise result in downtime and significant repair costs.
A gate height limiter can be integrated with other protective systems such as column protection or loading dock protection. This allows you to create a comprehensive safety system for your facility.
Height limiters across different industries
Height limiters are widely used in industries such as logistics, warehousing, manufacturing, and heavy industry. Proper protection of driveways, passages, and infrastructure is essential for ensuring operational continuity and safety.
If you’re unsure which solutions will work best for your facility, our experts can conduct a safety audit to help you choose the ideal products.
Gate height limiters – invest in safety
To sum up, suspended and barrier-style height limiters are an essential part of any warehouse safety system. Their durability, versatility, and energy-absorbing properties make them highly effective in protecting gates and surrounding infrastructure.
