In reply to elliot.baker:
As Neil says, most walls will have a system that they will expect you to use, especially if the ropes are preplaced on dedicated top rope routes, and as Jk says one screwgate is perfectly safe enough, especially if the gate is done up, as it should be. In fact often these are taped closed on in situ ones to try and prevent them being left open. In most cases it is pretty hard to assess from the ground if the gate is done up or not.
So two opposing gates is perhaps a notch up on the safety and redundancy scales , plus a bigger radius will make the rope run easier which is good for ease of belaying and less rope wear, but would offer less friction during a fall.
My local wall uses chain lower offs with a ring welded into the middle of the chain that the top rope is fed through, then there is a separate screw gate and a snap gate, for use when lead climbing.
I have seen several different set ups, the bulk of which are safe and have been properly thought out, plus deviating from what is there can create issues with the staff if you start changing what they see as the norm and signed off by the " Elfs" .
Having said that, it is good to do as you are and question these things plus take a quick but critical look at the gear that you are potentially about to fall onto at indoor walls. Accidents happen, and I have seen ropes incorrectly threaded though anchors, badly worn insitu QDs on lead routes, open screw gates etc.
Checking and tightening a gate only takes a second and in most instances quietly reporting any worn or faulty gear you spot is well received by staff.
