Choosing the right sliding gate kit

Our electric sliding gate kits suit gates from 400kg up to 2,500kg, for single gates and twin gates that meet in the middle. Every kit uses a Dynamos motor from Italian manufacturer King Gates.
 
Start with the weight of your gate. Pick a kit rated above it, not one that only just covers it. A heavy timber gate or a gate in an exposed spot puts more strain on the motor, so leave some headroom.
 
Next, look at the layout. A single sliding gate needs one motor and enough clear space to one side for the gate to run back. For one leaf, see our single sliding gate kits. For two leaves that part in the middle, choose one of our twin sliding gate kits.
 
Not sure which kit fits? Call 01992 465999 or email sales@gatesgates.co.uk with your gate's weight, width and material. Our technical support is free.

24V or 230V, and what else you need

24V or 230V? Our 24V kits suit most homes, and most of them can run from a battery back-up so the gate still opens in a power cut. Our 230V kits suit heavier gates and sites where the gate opens and closes all day.
 
Rack, wheels and track: 
The motor drives the gate along a toothed gear rack fixed to the gate. The gate runs on wheels along a ground track, with a guide at the top and a keep to catch it when it closes. If you're automating an existing gate, make sure this running gear is in good order first. You'll find replacements in our sliding gate wheels and tracks range.
 
Safety and access: 
Add safety beams so the gate stops if something is in its path. For easy entry, pair your kit with a gate intercom or keypad.
