BearGuard™ Features
The Ultimate Enclosure Design
•
BearGuard™ shelters are
manufactured with 12- & 14-gauge
GalXC™ steel for superior protection against
rusting. Panels are cut, formed and fabricated
on precision automated
machinery. All panels are riveted and then welded
from the interior for additional strength and for
aesthetic
appearance.
• Precision
tolerances are maintained throughout the manufacturing
process. The front edge of the
floor beneath the doors is tapered at a 15-degree
angle, allowing any
water to drain off preventing the doors from
freezing shut.
• The
BearGuard’s™ Dormer
Gable Roof design sheds water and snow away
from the front of the shelter,
unlike top-loading enclosures which allow water
and snow to build up over the doors and freeze them
closed
in
winter. The Two Front-opening doors without
a center divider offer convenient loading of trash
into the
containers without first having to pull the
containers out of the
shelter.
• The
BearGuard™ enclosure holds
Two standard 32-Gallon trash cans or Three rectangular
30-Gallon cans
with adequate room inside the shelter above the
trash cans to place recycling bags.
• The
door locking system incorporates a Heavy-Duty, Flush-mounted
latching
mechanism. Inserting the Tapered
Shank Mandrel Key into the lock and turning the
key opens both doors. A Stainless Steel trim plate
covers the keyhole
on the front of the door. The attached Mandrel
Key is easy for the homeowner to use and impossible
for bears
to open. Always make sure the doors are closed,
locked and secured with the use of the key.
• Our
unique, Inside Child Safety Door Release Handle is
incorporated
into the locking mechanism. The release
handle with its Red plastic grip enables both
doors to be opened easily and quickly from the inside,
preventing
a child from ever becoming accidentally entrapped.
• The
BearGuard’s™ Replaceable,
Reinforced and Recessed Doors are designed with
a 1-inch rollover/return
around the perimeter of each door and have welded
corners. For additional protection, we maintain
minimum gap-tolerances
around the doors, preventing bears from gaining
a claw hold anywhere around the edges of the doors.
For extra
strength we utilize 5-inch Stainless Steel Piano
Hinges to secure the doors to the frame of the shelter.
• BearGuard’s™ interior
and exterior metal surfaces are Powder Coated using
Urethane or Polyester
finishes to meet challenging outdoor requirements.
Powder Coating is the ultimate, tough metal finish
which extends
the life of the shelter and protects it from UV rays.
• Louvers
in rear panel for air ventilation and Slotted vents
along edge of floor pan for air circulation
and drainage
