Gate Types
Temporary Fence Gate Rental Options
Our temporary fence rental provides a secure perimeter, and every gate integrates into the continuous 6-foot Chain-Link line, ensuring the opening is as strong as the fence surrounding it. The correct gate style for your Rapid City site depends on access needs and available swing space. situations that need fencing
Swing Gates
Best for everyday crew entry and pickup access
Single 4-ft walk-through · double 12-ft drive-throughHinged panels pivot open and latch shut on weighted stands, providing the simplest way to move people, wheelbarrows, and pickups through a Rapid City construction site, while a single gate fits most jobs or a Double Swing Gate handles full-size vehicles. Check rental price ranges on your site. Our 6-foot panel line runs $4–$6 per linear foot. Call (866) 330-0268.
Cantilever Slide Gates
Best for tight entries and wide equipment openings
Rolls sideways · up to a 20-ft clear spanThe wheeled cantilever Slide Gate rolls parallel to the fence instead of swinging out, making it ideal for tight spots like corners or walls where a "wide vehicle opening" is needed for loaders, flatbeds, or frequent deliveries in Rapid City, and its heavy-duty rollers and positive latch keep it tracking straight over long rentals. It saves space. Pair it with our full lineup of rental fencing for any site.
Sized Openings
Pedestrian and Vehicle Openings
On a Rapid City jobsite or event perimeter, we size each opening to "the widest thing that has to get through"—tight enough to maintain secure control, wide enough to avoid awkward squeezes past panels, and if you also need to block sightlines, pair it with the windscreen and privacy mesh we deliver. Measure once.
3–4 ft
Pedestrian openings
Our pedestrian gates keep job sites secure. We install these walk-through panels across Rapid City to ensure crews and inspectors have easy access, while our self-closing hinges and footing and screen checks prevent gates from swinging open during high-wind winter blizzards or intense summer drought conditions. Call (866) 330-0268.
12–20 ft
Vehicle & equipment openings
The drive-through span accommodates pickups, flatbeds, forklifts, and loaders. The Double Swing Gates cover the mid-range, while the cantilever slide gate provides a full 20-foot clear span for the largest machines to roll straight through in Rapid City.
Access Control
Padlock, Keypad, and Badge Access
The lock ladder allows you to control site access with gates shipped with a heavy steel hasp ready for a hardened padlock, giving options from a simple lock to keypad or badge readers for a "controlled single-entry site" that’s worth it here due to local conditions, which often demand tight security. For event perimeter fencing we deliver, keep it simple. Call (866) 330-0268.
- Padlocks & hasps — keyed-alike padlocks so one key opens every gate on the site, or bring your own to the steel hasps.
- Keypad locks — code entry you can change between crews or shifts, so no keys go missing and no lock has to be re-cut.
- Badge access — credential readers for controlled sites that need a record of who came through the gate and when.
- Bolt-cutter-resistant latch — an Ultra Latch-type security latch that hides the shackle a cutter needs, for high-theft and high-vandalism sites.
For installations on asphalt or concrete, we use Hilti anchors to bolt the gate stands directly into the ground for maximum stability. Call (866) 330-0268.

Gate & Access FAQ
Questions about gates and access
Can the gate use the same key as my other site locks?
We provide keyed-alike padlocks for every Temporary Fence & Gate Rentals project in Rapid City so that your crews can operate efficiently across the site, ensuring that "access never depends on a lost key." Keep it simple. Review the gate hardware guidance.
How wide can a vehicle opening be?
We size gates to your equipment. Double Swing Gates cover 12 feet, while a cantilever slide gate provides a clear span up to 20 feet on any Rapid City, SD site; just tell us the widest vehicle needing access and we handle the rest.
Will the gate stand up to bolt cutters?
Standard hasps accept hardened padlocks to resist common cutters. For high-theft sites, we install an Ultra Latch security latch that removes the exposed shackle a cutter needs to bite on to gain entry.
Do the gates work with my existing chain-link run?
The gate integrity remains solid. Because our gates are built directly into the same 6-foot panel line as the rest of the perimeter across Rapid City, SD, professional delivery, installation, and final removal are always included in your rental rate. Call (866) 330-0268.
Can you anchor a gate on pavement?
We do not always drill. Free-standing weighted stands sit on most surfaces without drilling, but for gates facing heavy traffic, we use Hilti anchors to bolt the stands into asphalt or concrete. Call (866) 330-0268.
