Motor Installation:

Before you start

•  The GTR207 Sliding Gate Automatic kit is suitable for powering the opening and closing motion of 

gates up to 800kg in weight, and up to a length of 8m on level, flat ground. 

• 

Gate motion is achieved by the rotating cog of the gate motor driving the gear rack fitted to the moving 

gate (sold separately). 

•  The gate motor requires you to press the remote control once to open, and once again to close. This is 

a safety feature to ensure safe operation. 

• 

The gate motor itself must be fitted within private property, never externally to a property’s boundary. 

•  This premium motor has a range of optional accessories which can be added, such as solar power, 

battery backup, infrared photocells, keypads, push buttons, and warning light.

The low voltage power supply connects to your power point and reduces the voltage to 24V AC. This lower 

and safer voltage can then be ran to your gate motor to power the motor. Power Supply: The GTR207 

requires 1 x 10Amp 240V AC 50Hz power supply.

If your power supply and power point are mounted outdoors a RCD Protected Weatherproof PowerPoint 

will be required. This will require a licensed electrician to install. 

Any works done to the motor must be completed whilst the power is off and the motor is unplugged.

The gate motor will open the gate to the right-hand side as its default setting (refer to fig 1).

Power Supply:

How it Works

Please Note:

•  Your power outlet should be no more than 1m from the low voltage power supply.
•  If your power outlet is more than 1m from the low voltage power supply, you will require a licensed  

electrician to fit a new power cable.

•  Any excess cable length should be cable tied and secured out of the way of moving objects.
•  If the 30m cable supplied with this product is not enough length to reach your gate. A licenced  

electrician can extend the length of the cable up to 60m. At this distance, the low voltage power supply  

will be sufficient to power a sliding gate up to 400kg.

•  If your gate is over 60m from a convenient location for a power point consult with your local electrician  

to fit a larger 24VAC power supply and size the cable so suit your requirements.
