This procedure will work on small to medium size gates that open 90°. Gates that open wider than 90° will require the operator
to be located further away than 13” from the gate hinge pivot point (See section 1.8, Gates opening wider than 90°).

SECTION 1 - INSTALLATION
Prior to beginning the installation of the swing gate operator, we suggest that you become familiar with the
instructions, illustrations, and wiring guide-lines in this manual. This will help insure that your installation is
performed in an efficient and professional manner.
The proper installation of the vehicular swing gate operator is an extremely important and integral part of the
overall access control system. Check all local building ordinances and building codes prior to installing this
operator. Be sure your installation is in compliance with local codes.
If arm angle is less than 30°,
the gate bracket will interfere
with the arm’s safety cover.
Helpful Tip: Measuring 20 3 / 4 ” over from
the gate bracket pivot point then 12” out
from the gate makes approx. 30° angle or
use this illustration for the correct
minimum installation angle.
