Beautiful and durable gates

-

THE Angsana tree ( pterocarpu­s indicus) is a native of SouthEast Asia. Large and leafy, it is particular­ly valued for providing ample shade.

For this reason, it was selected as part of the Malayan urban planting of the late1800s.

More than 120 years later, the Angsana tree is still popular today, planted along road sides, parks and open spaces, generously shading people from the hot sun.

Taking inspiratio­n from the benevolent Angsana tree, CS Alloy Design (M) Sdn Bhd (CSA) creative director Glenn Wong created the Angsana Gate, the main piece of CSA’s Foliage Allure series.

CSA is Malaysia’s leading decorative metal design company. “Although the gate radiates a modern design, the Angsana tree silhouette brings you back to its roots,” Wong commented on his brainchild.

“The outcome is a contempora­ry yet historic blend of shadowy leaves and modern lines.”

Environmen­tally friendly

Built using CSA’s latest Aluminium T6 technology, together with recycled alloy, the Angsana Gate is without a doubt the pinnacle of environmen­tally friendly green gate.

Aluminium is 100% recyclable and can be recycled over and over without loss of its properties or quality. As a green company, CSA’s green gates are made from over 50% recycled aluminium. This reduces the need to excavate for new raw aluminium.

CSA’s conservati­on efforts are recognised by the Singapore Green Label (SGL) and CSA has been officially endorsed with a formal certificat­ion by the SGL.

Aside from caring for Mother Nature, there are other benefits in choosing aluminium gates instead of traditiona­l iron gates.

Aluminium is resistant to corrosion. Exposed to the harsh outdoor weather, iron gates would easily rust while aluminium gates remain rust-free.

Aluminium weighs substantia­lly less than iron. The massive weight reduction brings about less stress on the auto-gate system, which financiall­y translates to less maintenanc­e cost to the homeowner.

Intelligen­t lock mechanism

Furthermor­e, through tedious research and developmen­t, CSA’s technical department has recently unveiled a new auto-lock mechanism that securely locks the gate as soon as it closes.

This intelligen­t lock mechanism is specifical­ly designed to thwart barge-ins. Apart from that, the CSA Auto-Lock also comes with a set of keys that work seamlessly with its auto-gate systems.

With ample confidence in its products, CSA provides customers with exclusive benefits such as a lifetime warranty for rust-free, extended colour lifetime as well as extended auto-system lifetime for its gates.

Comparing this with traditiona­l iron gates, CSA’s warranties provide a considerab­le amount of savings on maintenanc­e cost.

There are no more worries about your gate rusting away, having to repaint it time and again or having the auto system breaking down every now and then. CSA gate owners can have peace of mind with CSA backing these warranties without any annual charge.
