Choose the Right Gate Motor
The correct gate motor depends on several factors.
Gate Type
Sliding and swing gates require different types of automation. The first step is identifying the type of gate you have.
Gate Weight
The weight of your gate is one of the most important factors when selecting a motor. Heavier gates require a motor designed for the required load.
Gate Length
Sliding gate motors are selected according to the size and weight of the gate, as well as the expected operating conditions.
Frequency of Use
A residential gate may only open a few times per day, while a commercial or complex entrance may operate continuously throughout the day.
For high-traffic entrances, a motor designed for increased operating cycles may be required.
Battery Backup
A compatible battery-backup system can keep your gate operational during power interruptions.

A gate motor provides more than convenience.
Automated access can help you control who enters your property while allowing you to operate your gate without leaving your vehicle.
Depending on the system selected, you can have access to features such as:
- Remote controls
