Things to Consider…

For gate operators, selecting the right operator and accessories for the application is most important. Several factors play into the decision.

  • What type of gate do you have - is a swing gate (single or double drive gate) or slide gate (single or double drive gates) or a specialty need.
  • Is this for a residential property or residential development or a commercial / Industrial property
  • How often will the gate open and close in a day? Single family properties may open and close their gates only a few times in a day, therefore being “light duty”. Residential developments/communities with over 100 houses could open and close 300+ times per day - are considered “heavy duty”. Commercial businesses that have gate areas for parking or allow trucks to enter and leave, will most likely have large gates, so the gate operator should be “heavy duty” in terms of cycles and powerful enough for commercial and industrial gates and operation.
  • Is their power available within a reasonable distance that can be used for a gate opener? What if you have a 100 acre ranch that you want to add a secured gate to the furthest point? If you have plenty of sunshine, using a solar powered unit can be a good choice.
  • What about power outages? Many gate operators include or have available battery back ups. Nobody wants to get out of their vehicle in a storm when the power is out.

Basics of UL 325 Requirements

  • The UL 325 Safety Standard requires at least two entrapment protection devices for each potential area of entrapment in each direction of travel.
  • Entrapment protection devices are installed in areas where an entrapment hazard exist. These devices include contact (electric edges) and non-contact (photo- electric) sensors. These devices are monitored by the gate operator.Should the gate operator sense a fault in these devices, or if they are not connected, the gate operator will not run.
  • Warning signs are placed in an area where they are visible from each side of the gate
  • Gate controls are installed in such a manner that a person operating the controls cannot come in contact with the gate or gate operator.
  • All rollers on guarded, and all potential pinch points are eliminated or guarded
  • All openings in slide gate systems are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 72-inches above the ground to prevent a 2.25-inch diameter sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the gate, and in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position.
  • Refer to ASTM-F2200 for more information on the construction of the gate and associated hazards
