Cantilever Carriage Wheels & Gate Roller Sets
Richmond supplies a range of cantilever carriage wheels for industrial, commercial, agricultural and residential sliding gate installations. Designed to support and guide cantilever gates, these roller carriage assemblies allow gates to move horizontally without requiring a ground-mounted track across the entrance.
Our range includes 5-wheel cantilever gate carriage sets designed for 68mm, 100mm and 140mm wide cantilever gate channels. These assemblies form part of the supporting mechanism used in trackless sliding gate systems, providing rolling support as the gate moves between its open and closed positions.
Explore Richmond’s 68mm Cantilever Gate Carriage (GTR026), 100mm Cantilever Gate Carriage (GTR027) and 140mm Cantilever Gate Carriage (GTR028) to find a compatible roller assembly for your gate channel.
Cantilever Gate Roller Carriages for Trackless Sliding Gates
Cantilever gate carriage wheels are used to support the weight of a sliding gate through a compatible cantilever channel. The carriage assemblies are mounted to a supporting structure beside the entrance, allowing the gate channel to travel along the rollers without requiring a continuous ground track across the opening.
This arrangement is particularly useful in warehouses, manufacturing plants, workshops, logistics centres and agricultural properties where trucks, forklifts, pallet jacks and farm machinery regularly pass through gate openings. Trackless gate systems help maintain clear ground-level access and reduce problems associated with dirt, gravel and debris collecting in conventional ground tracks.
Richmond offers three 5-wheel carriage configurations to suit different cantilever channel widths. Selecting the correct roller carriage requires matching the assembly to the channel profile and considering the gate’s overall weight, length, supporting structure and operating requirements.
Product Types by Application
68mm Cantilever Gate Carriage Wheels
The Cantilever Gate Carriage 5 Wheel Set (GTR026) is designed for use with 68mm wide cantilever gate channels. The five-wheel assembly provides rolling support for compatible cantilever sliding gate installations.
This carriage is suited to gate systems designed around a 68mm channel profile, including appropriate residential, rural and commercial applications. It can be paired with Richmond’s 68mm Cantilever Gate Channel (GTR023), subject to the requirements of the complete gate system.
100mm Cantilever Gate Carriage Wheels
The Cantilever Gate Carriage 5 Wheel Set (GTR027) is designed for cantilever gate systems using a 100mm wide channel. Its five-wheel configuration supports the channel as the gate travels through its opening and closing cycle.
100mm cantilever carriage assemblies are relevant to commercial, agricultural and industrial gate installations designed around this channel size. The carriage can be matched with Richmond’s 100mm Cantilever Gate Channel (GTR024), with the complete system capacity and installation arrangement confirmed before use.
140mm Cantilever Gate Carriage Wheels
The Cantilever Gate Carriage 5 Wheel Set (GTR028) is designed for use with 140mm wide cantilever gate channels. It provides a five-wheel roller carriage option for gate systems requiring this larger channel profile.
This carriage may be specified for larger commercial or industrial cantilever gate installations where the gate design calls for a 140mm channel. It is intended for use with a compatible channel such as Richmond’s 140mm Cantilever Gate Channel (GTR025), subject to the complete system’s load and structural requirements.
Specialty Product Options
Five-Wheel Carriage Assemblies
Richmond’s cantilever gate carriage range includes five-wheel roller assemblies for all three available channel sizes. These assemblies provide multiple rolling contact points to support and guide the gate channel during movement.
Five-wheel carriages are used in cantilever sliding gate installations where the gate must remain supported as it travels across the opening. Correct installation and alignment are important for maintaining consistent rolling performance.
68mm, 100mm & 140mm Channel Compatibility
Richmond supplies dedicated carriage wheel sets for 68mm, 100mm and 140mm wide cantilever gate channels. Each assembly is designed to suit its corresponding channel width.
Matching the carriage to the correct channel profile is essential for proper engagement and gate movement. The channel and carriage should be selected together, with the complete gate design and load requirements taken into account.
Trackless Sliding Gate Support
Cantilever carriage wheels support the gate from beside the entrance, allowing the gate to slide without a continuous running track across the ground. The carriage assemblies work with the cantilever channel to form the main rolling support system.
This arrangement is useful for farm driveways, warehouse entrances and industrial sites where vehicles and machinery need to cross the opening without encountering a ground-mounted gate track.
Load Support & Gate Stability
Cantilever carriage assemblies carry loads transferred through the gate channel as the gate moves. The roller arrangement, mounting position and supporting structure all contribute to the stability of the complete cantilever gate system.
When selecting carriage wheels, installers should consider the gate’s total weight, dimensions, overhang and operating conditions. The load capacity of the complete installation must be verified rather than determined from channel width or wheel count alone.
Manual & Automated Gate Applications
Cantilever carriage wheels can form part of manually operated or motorised sliding gate systems, provided the roller assemblies are suitable for the selected gate design. Smooth movement through the carriage system is important for both types of operation.
For automatic cantilever gates, correct roller alignment helps minimise unnecessary rolling resistance and strain on the gate motor. The motor, channel, carriages and supporting hardware must be compatible with the complete installation.
Replacement Cantilever Gate Carriages
Individual cantilever gate carriage assemblies may be required when servicing or repairing existing compatible sliding gate systems. Richmond’s range provides replacement options for installations using 68mm, 100mm or 140mm channel profiles.
Replacement carriages are useful for gate installers, maintenance contractors and property owners addressing worn or damaged roller assemblies. The existing channel dimensions, mounting arrangement and load requirements should be confirmed before selecting replacement components.
Carriage Mounting & Alignment
Cantilever gate carriage wheels must be mounted to a suitable supporting structure and correctly positioned relative to the gate channel. Accurate alignment allows the channel to travel along the rollers without unnecessary binding or uneven loading.
Proper mounting is particularly important for larger industrial and agricultural gates where the supporting structure carries substantial loads. Foundations, carriage spacing and installation geometry should follow the requirements of the complete gate system.
