GTR099 swing gate opener manual – Revision 22

Installation Overview
Preparation for Installation
There are two installation types for the gate opener, Pull-to-Open and Push-to-Open. In the Push-to-Open
installation, gate opens out from the property. A Push-To-Open Bracket (GTR059) is required to be used for
each gate.
The gate opener is mounted to the gate and to the gate post. Both round and square posts can be used because
the Post Brackets are curved. When mounting the Post Brackets, use bolts long enough to pass through the entire
post. M10 x 200 bolts are included. Concrete anchors are not provided.
When mounting the Post Brackets to wooden posts, a larger-size washer or metal plate should be used between
the bolts and the wooden post to ensure the stability of the fastening hardware. If the post is smaller than 6"
diameter or square, it should be made of metal and set in cement to ensure its stability.
NOTE: Ensure the gate does not open into public areas.
Note:
for best performance
we always recommend
attaching the arm to the
centre of the gate.
