We offer three types of swing gate operator, an articulated arm, a visible ram or a “concealed” under gate unit, as well as a comprehensive range of sliding gate motors.

To ensure a reliable service, it is very important that the most appropriate operators are installed for the environment. Therefore the following factors should be considered.
Width of opening and height of gates
Direction and geometry of the gate swing
Road levels, drainage and environmental conditions
Stability of the support structures
The construction, weight and proposed usage of the gates
Safety and locking requirements
Access to release devices in the event of power failure

It is typical for domestic operators to be self-locking, requiring the use of a release key for manual operation in the event of a power failure. However with multi-user installations, it maybe advisable to specify non-locking operators with supplementary locking.

Magnetic locking, with non-locking operators, will provide a failsafe release system and reduce the potential damage to the operators from forced entry, they will also prevent entrapment upon power failure. The system could also be linked to the internal fire alarm system so as to open the gates in an emergency and close automatically when the alarm is reset.
