Detailed product description

The automation kit SCS Sentinel OneGate 3 is relatively complete. You will have everything you need to motorize your gate at no additional cost.

Photocells are not supplied in the kit. If you have children or pets this is recommended. The photocells make it possible to detect obstacles, even before contact, and immediately stop the movement of the gate. This prevents domestic accidents.
Please note, this model does, however, have an obstacle stop in the event of contact with an object, person or animal.

The characteristics

The SCS Sentinel OneGate 3 motorization is designed for all sliding gates up to 4 meters in length and up to 400 kg. The 12-volt motor supports all types of gates, whatever their material: aluminum, wood, PCV, iron, and whether it is solid, perforated or semi-perforated.

The flashing light alerts road users when a vehicle exits. It ensures the safety of everyone on a daily basis. Stopping on obstacles is a real plus if you have children or pets.

Among the features, we also find slowing down at the end of the stroke and learning the stroke, as on all models of the SCS Sentinel brand.

Finally, in the event of a power outage, you will be able to unlock the motor manually using a key to operate your gate.

The opening

Depending on the configuration of your property, the opening can be done either to the right or to the left. If your gate is your only access, you will be delighted with the partial opening, called pedestrian opening, allowing you to open the gate partially for passage on foot, by bike or by motorbike.

The automatic closing is also a real plus. Once the vehicle has passed, the gate will close automatically.

Installation of the SCS Sentinel Opengate 3 automation

Installation of the SCS Sentinel range is relatively simple. It is done in 3 steps.

  • Mechanical installation of the rack
  • The electrical connection of the motor
  • Programming and synchronization with remote controls

Installation instructions are provided in the kit. You will also find it on the brand’s website.

Our opinion on the OneGate 3 motorization

L’OneGate 3 automation is ideal if you want to motorize your sliding gate at a lower cost with a quality system. This model offers excellent value for money. The rack is supplied, as are the accessories necessary for installation. The latter is also relatively simple if you are at least handy.
