Inward Opening Mounting

Identify the Fixing Point on the Pillar – Gate Hinged in the Centre
In order for the articulated arm to function correctly, the motor must be anchored on the pillar with
the arm connecting to the gate within measurement parameters described below. With the Kit
Simply being a versatile motor, there are NO set measurements that need to be achieved in order
for the motor to operate correctly – instead there are only maximum measurements and as long as
the motor operates within these measurements (A, B & D), the automation will function correctly
and smoothly. Follow the next set of figurations:
Identify the Fixing Point on the Pillar – Gate Hinged on the Corner
Dimension D = MAXIMUM 14mm
FIG.F - The articulated arm bracket must be attached to the gate leaf in-line with the motor shaft spindle. If
this bracket is not installed correctly, the arm may twist and potentially dislodge from its fixed position and
weaken the initial fixing point on the gate leaf.
Dimension D = MAXIMUM 14mm
The articulated arm bracket must be attached to
the gate leaf in-line with the motor shaft spindle.
If this bracket is not installed correctly, the arm
may twist and potentially dislodge from its fixed
position and weaken the initial fixing point on the
gate leaf.
FIG. E – This is an arrangement where the hinge of the gate is on the corner of the
pillar. This gives the option of opening the gate to a maximum 120 degree angle.
Dimension A = Zero
As the gate is hinged on the corner of the pillar, there is no measurement
for dimension A. Therefore there is no measurement between the axis of
the gate and the edge of the pillar.
Dimension B = MAXIMUM 230mm
This is the maximum distance away from the edge of the pillar as the arm
will no longer be physically able to safely pull the gate further than 120
degree angle.
FIG C – This is a typical arrangement on a pillar. This
will open the gate to a 90 degree angle (Fig D).
Dimension A = MAXIMUM 300mm
300mm is the maximum measurement between
the axis of the gate and the edge of the pillar.
Dimension B = MAXIMUM 30mm
30mm is the maximum distance away from the
edge of the pillar. This ensures the motor does
not get damaged when the gate opens
