Elite only recommends installation of catch rollers on the side of a catch post or wall with a minimal distance
of half an inch between the rollers and gate. Also when fully open the end of the sliding gate must stop at least
five inches from a wall.

For safety reasons, a physical stop must be installed on the gate prior to installa-
tion of the gate operator. This will assure that the gate does not exceed movement
limits and derail while opening or closing fully.
IMPORTANT NOTICE!
Because the coasting distance may vary due to changes in temperature, Elite does
NOT
recommend the
installation of a stop or catch post in front of the gates path. To do so will cause the gate to hit the post in
certain instances.
CAUTION!
