Direct Burial In Ground Preformed Loops

If you want more security at your gate, a BD gate opener safety loop can help by reversing the gate's motion or stopping it when it senses an oncoming vehicle. Direct-burial loops are useful in any residential or industrial situation that requires additional security and safety features. If you're not sure why safety loops are an excellent gate safety solution, here are a few reasons they're the ultimate defense against future accidents.

Reduction of Air Pockets in Direct Burial Loops

All BD preformed direct burial inductance loops do not have air pockets. This means phantom detection is immediately reduced. Phantom detection occurs when slight vibrations from weather or other circumstances cause your gate to open unexpectedly. Most safety loops use PVC conduit; however, BD loops are made differently.

Rigorous Testing In U.S. Manufacturing Plant

BD safety loops are mostly made in their manufacturing plant in Placentia, California. Not only are these loops created in the U.S., but all wiring is also American-made. These loops undergo extensive testing before leaving the factory and going under your driveway.

Best Materials For Preformed Loops

Not all safety loops are made alike, and BD inductance loops are built with solid 16 AWG copper wire for added strength. During installation, these loops won't fall below the rebar pattern. They also have a thick outer layer to protect the loop and lead-in.

Installation Materials Included For Induction Loops

BD loops come with zip ties and loop function labels to make it simpler to install your loop. This will make it easier to identify the parts of a loop after installation is complete.
