The gates are to be painted safety yellow and must undergo SP3 cleaning, with each gate including a 3" round swivel pole that is 7'6" long, with 4' below ground and 3' above ground. The procurement is structured on a per-gate basis and includes delivery, with no installation required.

The procurement appears to be open to qualified vendors capable of meeting the precise technical specifications for the steel gates. Vendors will need to be registered in Alabama Buys and comply with standard state procurement regulations, including tax compliance, immigration status verification, and non-discrimination requirements.

Vendors will need to carefully review the attached specification document (SRC28201.Welded_Gate_Description_Barbour_2025FY.pdf) and the standard boilerplate terms and conditions to ensure full compliance with the state's procurement guidelines.
