Important Swing Gate Considerations
- Swing gates require clearance for the gate leaf to swing open — check for obstacles, pillars, and inclines
- Heavier or longer gate leaves may require a linear actuator or ram motor instead of an articulated arm
- Underground motors require a damp-proof motor pit — add R1,500–R3,000 for civils work
- All swing gate motors require a self-closing mechanism or obstruction detection
