Advantages of sliding gate operators

When deciding to purchase or automate sliding gates, it is worth taking a closer look at the advantages of sliding gate operators. The first is that the sliding gates themselves come in many interesting designs, they are very diverse, which allows you not only to have an automatic, but also simply a nice, interesting sliding gate; they feature a unique design and a high level of aesthetics.

The sliding gate drive opens the gate along the fence - so it is ideal for those who have a driveway with a small area; it is also a great option for those who want to save or arrange space in front of the house.

Sliding gate operators eliminate the need to get out of the car to open or close the gate. Such a solution is not only convenient and saves time, but also increases the level of security. Often, when opening the gate, we do not turn off the engine by getting out of the car, which translates into a higher risk of car theft. A sliding gate operator also prevents uninvited people from breaking into the property.

Sliding gate actuators are also a great solution for people living along busy roads - automatically opening the gate in time eliminates the problem of blocking traffic on the road.

Sliding gates need only one actuator, which is the whole gate drive - a complete set for sliding gates. In comparison, their swinging counterparts require as many as two actuators and a control panel.

Another advantage when it comes to sliding gate actuators is the so-called gate function, which allows the gate to be partially opened. As a result, we do not have to wait for the gate to close and open completely, for example, when traveling by bicycle or on foot. At the same time, this eliminates the need to purchase a separate gate.

Sliding gate actuators also provide an extremely resistant and durable gate drive. If properly selected and installed, the sliding gate operator will serve a long and trouble-free life even during harsh weather conditions, rain, snow and more.

How to choose a sliding gate operator?

When choosing a sliding gate operator - a sliding gate actuator - you should consider features such as its type, size, frequency of closing and opening, and weight. A sliding gate automatic consists primarily of: an electric motor with a gearbox, controlled by a special control panel.

The basic parameter, which is given by manufacturers of automatic sliding gates, is the maximum weight and length of the leaf. In order for the installed mechanism to work efficiently and trouble-free, the weight of the gate should be less than the maximum load given by the manufacturer of the drive. This means that if the structure of our sliding gate is self-supporting, already 30% power reserve will be sufficient for its smooth operation. On the other hand, for gates running on a rail, the automatic should be more powerful by at least 50%, and even more. It should be borne in mind that changing atmospheric conditions have a major impact on the frictional resistance during the operation of the sliding gate actuator - for example, in winter, at low temperatures, the lubricant thickens while increasing the resistance.

Significant in the selection of a sliding gate operator is the number of available cycles and the estimated frequency of opening the gate - it is to it that you should select a sliding gate actuator with an equivalent duty cycle. For private properties, 30% is usually enough, while a minimum of 50% is a parameter dedicated to residential communities or housing estates.

A very important criterion for the selection of a sliding gate actuator is its operating speed. Typically, for most sliding gate drives, we operate at two basic speeds - 0.12 m/s and 0.15 m/s. However, there are drives that operate faster and adjustable - it all depends on our expectations. It should be remembered, however, that a sliding gate drive operating faster may determine higher energy consumption.

When deciding to buy a sliding gate operator, we must also think about safety. The selected set of sliding gate automation should include the necessary safeguards against accidental closing of the leaf. That is why in high-end mechanisms you can find special limit switches and sensors detecting obstacles.

It is not uncommon for manufacturers of sliding gate drives to also pay attention to the temperature range in which the device will work efficiently. It is worth paying attention to this criterion as well, and relate it to the prevailing - especially in winter - conditions. Equally important is the manufacturer of the sliding gate actuators themselves.

Sliding gate automation

Sliding gates are often chosen when the use of other types of fencing is inconvenient due to the nature of the device or, for example, limited space. At en.ivel.pl we not only have the highest quality sliding gate actuators and other components complementing this type of installation, but also garage door automation, swing gate actuators, gate accessories and even barriers.
