Introduction to Automation for Swing Gates
Automation for swing gates is an ideal solution for those who wish to enhance comfort, security, and convenience in managing access to their home or condominium. Articulated arm motors are among the most versatile and effective for this type of gate, especially in the presence of wide pillars or limited installation space.
This technology allows for the simple and efficient automation of double-leaf gates, offering intelligent management of opening and closing, even when dealing with large door leaves or asymmetrical gates.
How Articulated Motors Work
Articulated motors for swing gates utilize a jointed arm system that allows smooth movement even in complex situations. This solution is ideal when the motor's fixing point is not perfectly aligned with the axis of the leaf, as often occurs with wide pillars or entrance walls.
The articulated arm provides greater movement flexibility, adapting to various structural configurations and making automation possible even in residential or condominium contexts with limited space.
Advantages of Automation with Articulated Motors
1. Versatile Installation
One of the main advantages of articulated arm motors is the ability to be installed in-line, meaning within the plane of the gate, making them perfect for pillars up to 35 cm from the hinge. This allows for great flexibility during installation, without the need to modify the existing structure.
2. Robustness and Reliability
The articulated systems are designed to last over time. Thanks to their solid construction and 230V electromechanical technology, these automations guarantee high performance even with leaves of up to 3 meters in length, ensuring safety and continuous use even in residential environments.
3. Advanced Functionality
Modern automation kits include intelligent features such as slowdowns in opening and closing, independent stroke adjustment for each leaf, obstacle detection, and electronic locking management. These elements contribute to smooth and secure operation, reducing wear on components and increasing the longevity of the system.
4. Ease of Manual Release
In case of a blackout or emergency, it is always possible to manually unlock the gate using a provided release key. This function is essential to ensure accessibility in any situation, even in the absence of electrical power.
5. Remote Control and Security
The presence of an integrated radio receiver and Rolling Code remotes allows for remote control of the gate, preventing accidental or unauthorized openings. Additionally, the systems are often equipped with photocells, flashing lights, and weather-resistant control units for complete protection and safe operation.
