Gate Operators Installation Instructions
1) Install the gate operator only when:
The operator is appropriate for the construction and the usage Class of the gate.
All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the
gate to a minimum of 4 feet (1.2 m) above the ground to prevent a 2 ¼ inch (57.15 mm)
diameter sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the gate, and
in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers the open position.
All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded.
Guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.
2) The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be
supplied with a separate access opening.
3) The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the gate
and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment. Swinging
gates shall not open into public access areas.
4) The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the installation of
the gate operator.
5) Controls must be far enough from the gate so that the user is prevented from coming in
contact with the gate while operating the controls. Controls intended to be used to reset an
operator after two sequential activations of the entrapment protection device(s) must
be located in the line of sight of the outdoor gate or easily accessible controls shall have a
security feature to prevent unauthorized use.
6) All warning signs and placards must be installed where visible in the area of the gate.
7) For a gate operator utilizing a non-contact sensor such as a photo beam:
See instructions on the placement of non-contact sensor for each type of application.
Care shall be given to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping such as when a vehicle
trips the sensor while the gate is still moving.
One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or
obstruction exists, such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier.
8) Gate operators utilizing a contact sensor such as an edge sensor:
One or more contact sensors shall be located at the leading edge, trailing edge, and
post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal sliding gate.
One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vehicular lift gate.
One or more contact sensors shall be located at the pinch point of a vehicular vertical pivot gate.
A hardwire contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged so that the
communication between the sensor and the gate operator is not subject to mechanical damage.
A wireless contact sensor such as one that transmits radio frequency (RF) signals
to the gate operator for entrapment protection functions shall be located where the
transmission of the signals are not obstructed or impeded by building structure,
natural landscaping, or similar obstruction. A wireless contact sensor shall function
under the intended end use conditions.
