Entrance Gate

The location and design of the installation entrance gates are primary components of the installation circulation system.  Entrance gates must be designed to be functional, while providing security protection not only for the installation itself, but also for personnel and others waiting to be admitted to the installation.  Gates should also be designed as a visual amenity to provide an aesthetically pleasing entrance to and exit from the installation.  

Pedestrian and bicycle traffic needs to be accommodated through the various entrance gates.  

See Section 12, Force Protection, Paragraph 12.7 for information on the design standards for installation gates.  Also see SDDC Pam 55-15 (Gate Manual) and  Section 5, Gates Visual Theme for more information.
