Product Overview
A powerful noiseless electromechanical operator suitable for over-sized pillars.
The motor can open inwards or outwards with the ability to achieve wide angle openings (up to 130° dependant on hinge position).
This kit is ideal where traditional ram operators cannot be installed.
The Kit Advantage articulated motors are ideal where there is considerable distance between the motor mounting bracket and gate hinge - normally associated with gates hung from over-sized pillars/posts
The operators are non-reversible and therefore don’t need the inconvenience or expense of an additional electric lock to keep them closed.
Limited Warranty - 3 years on motors, 1 year on other components. See T&C's for more info.
Kit Suitability
With the Kit Advantage being a versatile motor, there are NO set measurements that need to be achieved in order for the motor to operate correctly – instead there are only maximum measurements and as long as the motor operates within these the automation will function correctly and smoothly.
Diagram A shows measurements to achieve 90° opening angle and B to achieve 130°.
Gate Stops
Most electric gate motors require a physical stop at the end of the opening and closing cycle. Gate Stops provide resistance to the motors so they know they've reached either the open or closed position. Without Gate stops the motors will over extend during their operation and the mechanism will eventually fail. When assessing your gate-way it is important to check you can install physical stops in both the closing and opening positions. A Common reason why gate stops cannot be installed is because of a sloping driveway or the gate is raised significanlty off the ground. If you cannot install something to provide resistance at either end of the motors cycle then you will require a specialised ram with in-built mechanical stops.
