The characteristics
The cylinder automation for swing gates is suitable for gates up to 4 meters in length and 400 kg maximum, i.e. 200 kg and 2 meters per leaf.
All types of gates are compatible, whatever the material, aluminum, wood, PVC, iron, and whether it is solid, semi-openwork or openwork.
The OpenGate 1 motorization is aesthetic. Its all-purpose design will suit any entryway.
Among the characteristics, we find the learning of the stroke and the slowing down at the end of the stroke so as not to rush the gate and the mechanism.
Stopping on obstacles is essential for the safety of the home. In the event of an encounter with a person, an animal or an object, the movement of the gate is stopped so as not to hit anyone.
Finally, in the event of a power outage, you can manually unlock the motor to open your gate.
The opening
The opening is relatively easy since it takes just 15 seconds. The opening angle is 120° for a classic opening towards the interior of the property. It is possible to partially open the gate thanks to the pedestrian opening for the passage of a bicycle or on foot.
The photocells provided in the kit allow the automatic closing of the gate after the vehicle has passed.
Depending on the configuration of your entrance, you can install OpenGate 1 for opening to the outside. Please note, the opening angle will then be only 90°. This is sufficient for the passage of a vehicle, but this needs to be specified. Purchasing an additional part is necessary.
Installation
Once again, SCS Sentinel has focused on simplicity. Everything has been designed to make installation simple. In fact, color codes on the terminal blocks of the electronic card allow easy connection of accessories.
The brand even offers an explanatory video for installation with details of each step.
