Cheers to Innovation

Cheers to Innovation Around this time in 1693, a French Benedictine monk discovered a major innovation in the making of champagne. While serving as his abbey's cellar master, Dom Perignon developed the process of producing white wine from red wine grapes successfully. We'll toast to that and to the innovation of the tilt-up gate. Tilt-up or vertical pivot gates, a modern version of a medieval castle drawbridge, have been around for about four decades. Swing, and slide gates move parallel to the ground while opening and closing. While tilt-up gates, lift up and move away from the ground while opening. Though every gate system has its pros and cons, like white versus red wine, we cheer the innovation in creating more options for our customers.
