Gate valves operate by using a flat gate that rises or falls within the valve body. When the gate is in the open position, the flow is unobstructed, allowing fluid to pass through with minimal resistance. Conversely, closing the gate creates a tight seal that stops the flow, making gate valves an ideal choice for on/off control rather than throttling—an important characteristic to consider when deciding whether to use a gate valve.
Moreover, many modern lockable posts are equipped with more advanced features, including automated locking systems that can be controlled via remote or smartphone apps. This level of convenience not only enhances security but also makes it easier for homeowners to manage access to their driveways without leaving the comfort of their homes.
