Which product? Thank you for the video!

Hi@Sidney. The lubricant we're using in the video is the GRR005 lubricant spay available from any of our Richmond branches. But, any oil based lubricant will be just as good. Just no solvent based lubricants if possible.

You don't mention lubricating the motor, gear reducer or internal chain?

[@RichmondCastors]

Hi @mediaservices8803. You're 100% correct, and that's because it's not needed. Our motors are greased and sealed so no additional lubrication required. Our cantilever gates don't use a chain (common in USA) and the drive gear shouldn't be lubricated.
