Things to Consider When Automating Your Swing Gate

Before diving into swing gate motor automation, it's crucial to assess your existing gate:

• Gate Weight and Size: The size and weight of your gate will determine the required motor power.

• Gate Material: Different materials (wood, metal, etc.) may require specific mounting hardware.

• Gate Condition:

  • New Gates:

    • Hinge Type: Ensure your new gate features robust hinges like Letron Ball Bearing Hinges for long-term durability and smooth operation in Australian weather conditions. Avoid cheaper T-pin hinges that are prone to sagging and can strain the motor.

    • 

  • Old Gates:

    • Hinge Condition: Inspect your existing hinges. Consider upgrading to Letron Ball Bearing Hinges for optimal performance and longevity.

    • Gate Maintenance: Assess the overall condition of your gate. Has it been properly maintained?

    • Gate Swing: How smoothly does the gate currently swing?

    • Frame Integrity: Is the gate frame still structurally sound?
