2.5 Loop Detector Wiring

To protect the operator from accidentally closing on vehicles in the gate’s path, a series of loop detectors must be installed.
Loops are laid underneath, cut into asphalt or concrete driveways or buried beneath gravel and earth driveways. A loop detec-
tion system will sense a vehicle like a metal detector and send a signal to the gate operator preventing the gate from automati-
cally closing on a vehicle when it is in the gate’s swing path. Refer to the separate loop and loop detectors information manual
(Loop Info G-3-02) for further information. DoorKing recommends that a licensed installer perform this work.

Loop detector wiring is
shown for DoorKing
plug-in loop detectors
P/N 9409-010 and P/N
9410-010 only. If other
loop detectors are used,
refer to the installation
instructions supplied
with those detectors for
wiring instructions.

Automatic Exit Loop

Automatically opens the gate for exiting vehicles
without having to use a transmitter or keypad.
The exit loop can be placed 20-100 feet away
from the gate so that the gate is open or partially
open as you drive up to it.

Reverse Loops

Reverse loops are placed just outside the
gate’s swinging path to prevent the gate from
closing on a vehicle in these areas. They will
stop or reverse the cycling of the gate while a
vehicle is in or near the gate’s swing pathway.
Reverse loops are wired in series.

Shadow Loop

The shadow loop is placed inside the gate’s
swinging path to prevent the gate from closing
on a vehicle in this area. It is only active when
the gate is in the full open position.
Vehicles
in the shadow area will activate it. It will not
allow the gate to close unless this area is clear.
After a closing cycle begins, the shadow loop
will not reverse the gate. Reverse loops work
in conjunction with the shadow loop and both
should be used.
