Installing a Richmond GTR058 Double Swing Gate Automation Kit

[@davidsutherland4151]

What size fuse do I need? And why would the fuse keep blowing?

[@RichmondCastors]

Hi David. The fuse blowing is in indicator of an installation or power supply issue. It's best if you contact [e-mail] to find out what's causing your issue.

hi what is i need the gate to open 140 degrees can i do that or i need extra accessories

[@RichmondCastors]

Hi @cocolove. Our swing arms will allow a maximum of 110° based on the mounting position. For a system with 140° you will need a specialist opener. If you contact our gate support team at [e-mail] they may be able to assist further.

What if dimension A and B are shorter than the recommended range?

[@RichmondCastors]

Hi Mark, The mounting dimensions are directly related to the maximum range of motion. Mounting outside of the chart range will limit you below 90 degrees of movement and can result in complete loss of movement. Submit a request at gatesupport.richmondau.com with some pictures of your gate and one of our technicians will be able to help.

Do you do a solar powered unit as my driveway gates are a long way from any power source?

[@RichmondCastors]

Hi Mike, Both our swing and sliding gates come with solar powered options. We also have a low voltage power source that can be used if you have mains power within 60 metres of your gate. If you need more information, take a look at our range www.richmondau.com/automatic-gate-openers-hardware/ Or feel free to give our sales team a call on 1300 474 246

What is stopping it from being forced open or blown open?

[@RichmondCastors]

Hi Kecup, Internally, each arm is operated by a DC motor and steel worm drive. This also holds the motor in a stationary position when closed so that the gate can not be pushed open.

@@RichmondCastors If it holds the motor in a stationary position when closed so that the gate cannot be pushed open, what purpose does the GTR169 Electric lock serve? If there a certain amount of force that will open the gates?

[@Bjpeg42]

@@alexcampbell4301 I think it might be to add a categorical difference between a gate that shuts and a locked gate. Insurance purposes?

[@RichmondCastors]

@Alex Campbell As a general rule, swing gate motors of different types will have roughly 3 degrees of travel with some force applied. It would take a decent impact from a vehicle (or a group of very motivated individuals) to damage the internal gearing of the motor and allow the gate to open completely. Having a gate lock fitted would mean they would also likely need to have some tools handy to bypass the lock.

Great product, would be great if more of your product range were in Bunnings stores, instead of being special order's..

[@RichmondCastors]

Hi Lee, Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately we can't have our whole range in Bunnings as they just don't have the space available. The most common items are stocked and the range in constantly reviewed. Hopefully you will see more of our products there in the future!
