Sliding Gate Track Wheels for Manual & Automatic Gates
Sliding gate wheels support the weight of a ground-running sliding gate and allow it to travel along a suitable track. Correct wheel selection is important for maintaining smooth movement, reducing rolling resistance and supporting consistent operation throughout the gate’s travel.
Richmond supplies bottom mount sliding gate wheels that attach beneath a compatible gate frame and recessed gate wheels designed to fit within a suitable frame section. The correct mounting arrangement depends on the gate construction, available ground clearance and intended running track.
Wheel diameter and material are also important considerations. Richmond’s range includes 78mm, 88mm, 98mm and 118mm track wheels, along with a 58mm swivel configuration. Stainless steel and nylon wheel options provide additional material choices for suitable outdoor and commercial applications.
For automated sliding gates, the running wheels must allow the gate to move freely without excessive resistance. Worn wheels, incorrect track profiles or poor alignment can increase the load placed on the motor and affect gate operation.
When selecting replacement or new sliding gate wheels, confirm the gate weight, required wheel capacity, wheel groove, track profile, mounting dimensions and operating environment. Wheel diameter alone does not determine load capacity.
Complete your installation with compatible Sliding Gate Tracks, Sliding Rollers and Guides and Sliding Gate Motors.

Nylon Sliding Gate Wheels
Richmond’s nylon gate wheel options include the 88mm Stainless Bottom Mount Nylon Gate Track Wheel (GTR238) and 88mm Stainless Recessed Nylon Gate Track Wheel (GTR236). These products combine nylon wheel construction with stainless mounting components.
Nylon wheels provide an alternative running material for suitable sliding gate systems. They may be considered for residential and commercial applications where the wheel capacity, track profile and operating environment are compatible with nylon construction.
Large Diameter Bottom Mount Gate Wheels
Richmond supplies larger bottom mount track wheels, including the 98mm Bottom Mount Gate Track Wheel (GTR093) and 118mm Bottom Mount Gate Track Wheel (GTR002). These products provide additional wheel diameter options for compatible sliding gate assemblies.
Larger wheel diameters may be relevant where the gate design requires particular running gear dimensions or mounting clearances. Suitability for heavier gates must be determined from the product’s specified load capacity rather than diameter alone.
Swivel Sliding Gate Track Wheels
The 58mm Sliding Gate Track Wheel – Swivel (GTR271) provides a swivel wheel configuration within Richmond’s sliding gate hardware range. It offers an alternative to conventional fixed recessed and bottom mount wheel arrangements.
This wheel is relevant to specialised sliding gate assemblies where the intended movement and mounting requirements suit a swivel configuration. Compatibility with the gate frame, track and operating conditions should be confirmed before installation.
Specialty Product Options
78mm Bottom Mount Gate Wheels
The 78mm Bottom Mount Gate Track Wheel (GTR001) provides a bottom-mounted running wheel option for compatible sliding gate installations. Its nominal 78mm diameter offers a size choice for suitable gate frames and track arrangements.
This wheel is relevant to residential driveways and commercial sliding gates where the mounting dimensions, required ground clearance and running track are compatible. Gate weight and wheel capacity should be checked before installation.
88mm Bottom Mount & Recessed Gate Wheels
Richmond supplies the 88mm Bottom Mount Gate Track Wheel (GTR004B) and 88mm Recessed Gate Track Wheel (GTR004), providing two mounting configurations in the same nominal wheel diameter.
These products allow gate fabricators and installers to select a mounting arrangement suited to the lower gate frame. Bottom mount wheels attach beneath the frame, while recessed wheels require a compatible internal mounting position.

The 88mm Stainless Steel Bottom Mount Gate Track Wheel (GTR239) and 88mm Stainless Steel Recessed Gate Track Wheel (GTR237) provide stainless steel wheel options for compatible sliding gate systems.
These wheels are relevant to outdoor installations where corrosion resistance is a consideration. The choice between recessed and bottom mounting depends on the gate frame design and required installation arrangement.
88mm Nylon Gate Wheels With Stainless Mounts
Richmond supplies the 88mm Stainless Bottom Mount Nylon Gate Track Wheel (GTR238) and 88mm Stainless Recessed Nylon Gate Track Wheel (GTR236) for suitable installations requiring nylon wheel construction.
These products offer different mounting arrangements while providing nylon running wheels with stainless mounting components. Their suitability depends on the gate load, track compatibility and intended operating environment.
98mm Bottom Mount Gate Wheels
The 98mm Bottom Mount Gate Track Wheel (GTR093) provides a larger diameter bottom mount option within Richmond’s sliding gate wheel range.
This wheel can be considered for suitable residential, commercial and industrial sliding gates requiring its particular wheel dimensions and mounting configuration. Load capacity and track compatibility must be verified before selection.
118mm Bottom Mount Gate Wheels
The 118mm Bottom Mount Gate Track Wheel (GTR002) is one of the larger diameter wheels in Richmond’s sliding gate range. It provides a bottom-mounted running wheel option for compatible gate assemblies.
This product may be relevant to larger sliding gate installations where the frame construction and running track suit an 118mm wheel. The wheel’s specified capacity, mounting requirements and track profile should be checked before installation.
58mm Swivel Gate Wheels
The 58mm Sliding Gate Track Wheel – Swivel (GTR271) provides a compact swivel wheel configuration for suitable specialised gate applications.
Unlike conventional fixed track wheels, a swivel configuration may accommodate a different movement arrangement. Installers should confirm the intended function and compatibility with the complete gate system before selecting this product.
Recessed vs Bottom Mount Gate Wheels
Recessed and bottom mount gate wheels perform the same general running function but use different mounting arrangements. Recessed wheels fit within a compatible gate frame, while bottom mount wheels are attached beneath the frame.
The correct option depends on the gate’s lower frame construction, available clearance and installation requirements. Richmond offers both configurations in standard, stainless steel and nylon wheel options.
Gate Wheel & Track Compatibility
Sliding gate wheels must be matched to a compatible running track. The wheel groove and track profile determine how the wheel contacts and travels along the running surface.
Incorrect wheel and track combinations can lead to poor alignment, excessive wear or unreliable gate movement. Browse Richmond’s Sliding Gate Tracks range when selecting compatible running gear.
Replacement Sliding Gate Wheels
Sliding gate wheels can experience wear from repeated movement, loading, contamination and outdoor exposure. Replacing worn or damaged wheels can help restore smooth operation when the remaining gate structure and track are suitable.
When selecting replacement wheels, confirm the existing diameter, mounting configuration, wheel groove, track profile and required load capacity. Richmond supplies bottom mount, recessed, stainless steel and nylon options for compatible replacement applications.
Sliding Gate Wheels for Automated Gates
Automatic sliding gates rely on freely rotating track wheels to allow the motor to move the gate along its running track. Wheel condition and track alignment can influence the resistance experienced by the drive system.
Before installing or servicing an automatic sliding gate, check that the wheels rotate freely and the gate moves smoothly throughout its travel. Richmond supplies Sliding Gate Motors and related running gear for suitable automated installations.
