Nylon or steel

The gate weight decides the material.

Up to 1,200 kg nylon does everything iron does, with no grease and no rust.

Stagnoli patents

Two ideas that changed gate racks.

We invented them ourselves, in Desenzano and then in Lonato del Garda.

Nylon with steel core

Moulded around a steel bar: the lightness of nylon with the straightness of metal. It is still the most widely used rack on sliding gates worldwide.

Three Points fixing

Each fixing point is secured in three places instead of one: the load is spread and bending drops. With elastomer-modified polyamide, capacity rises by 50%, up to 1,200 kg.
