Doorking 1601-812 Folding Aluminum Octagonal Arm

12ft Folding Aluminum Octagonal Arm for Low Clearance Installations

The Doorking 1601-812 is a 12-foot folding aluminum octagonal barrier arm engineered for low-clearance installations using Doorking 1601 barrier gate operators. Built from high-visibility aluminum and shaped with an octagonal profile for added strength and rigidity, this two-piece arm folds vertically to clear low ceilings and overhead structures.
