From 1990 to 2010 CPSC has estimated that nearly 25,000 people were involved in automatic gate related including 9,000 children under 15 years old.Each year over 2,000 people including 800 children are treated in hospital emergency room for injuries to the head neck arm, and hand due to automatic sliding gate defects. This is not an up to date fact how many more people must be killed or hurt before we do something.
