Pedestal Mount Features
!
Secure locking with no need for gate end stops.
!
Can be used on both inward and outward
opening gates and on installations where space
is limited.
!
Provides the smoothest gate motion.
!
Provides very secure locking and high security.
!
Where a gate leaf width exceeds 3.0m a gate lock
is recommended for security.
!
Installation is independent of the size and
strength of gate pillar.
Products required per gate leaf automation:
1 x R3 or R5 operator.
1 x R3 or R5 long linkage hardware kit
(which includes drive arm, connecting arm,
fasteners and bracket).
1 x Pedestal.

Wall Mount Features
!
Very compact installation.
!
Requires a pillar strong enough to support the
operator and potential loading if the gate is
forced.
!
Where a gate leaf width exceeds 2.5m a gate lock
is recommended for optimum security.
!
The operator may be mounted parallel or
perpendicular to the pillar, whichever is best
suited for the installation.
!
Perpendicular installations are recommended
since it inherently provides better locking and
greater security.
Products required per gate leaf automation:
1 x R3 or R5 operator.
1 x R3 or R5 long linkage hardware kit
(which includes drive arm, connecting arm,
fasteners and bracket)
1 x Wall mount bracket.
Figure 6 Basic Installation Options
Locate the Operator Position
1. Swing the gate to the required open position and estimate the swing angle of the gate using the angle
diagrams in Fig.7 to 11. Alternatively determine the gate swing angle by following the procedure
detailed on page 44.
NOTE: Ensure that you use a LONG connecting
arm for this type of installation.
NOTE: Ensure that you use a SHORT
connecting arm for this type of installation.
