Gate Motors for swing gates

The type and model of gate motors for swing gates to use to automate your driveway gate is determined by a number of factors. Swing gates have either one or two sections called leaves. This will determine. Furthermore one must consider the dimensions, weight and frequency of use when choosing the optimal gate motor.

Swing gates swing instead of slide at the entrance of your driveway. This style of gate opening is chosen if there is no parallel length of wall for the gate to slide along.

The most important factor to consider when choosing between a single or double leaf is the manoeuvre area. Swing gates need a certain amount of space to swing into without damaging property.

The 2 types of swing gate motors

Articulated – arm and piston. An articulated-arm gate motor is suitable to any type of driveway gate. The motor’s main component is characterised by a strong metal arm, the ends of which are secured, on one side, to the gate leaf and, on the other side, to the automation system’s motor unit. The other advantage of an articulated arm gate motor is that one does not have to make any construction changes to the walls or pillars to which the arm will be attached.
