(As with a collision)
Action: Simply activate gate again.
If gate is already open or closed it will hold its position while

the wind blows against it.

5.1 General Considerations
for the Installation
• Always recommend additional safety equipment.
• Check position of pipes or electrical cables
before DIGGING trenches.
• Is there space for the gate operator with
the gate in the open position
• If the swing gate leaf is longer than 3 metres,
fit an electric lock.
• If you fit an operator on the outside of the gate…
Say GOODBYE to it.
• Never run an operator directly off the 12V battery.
Install the gate operator only if:
• It will not pose a hazard to the public!
• There is sufficient clearance to a roadway
and/or public thoroughfares
• The installation will meet all municipal
and/or local authority requirements once completed
• The gate mass, leaf width, wind loading and application
is within the operator specifications
Install the gate operator only if:
• The gate is in good working order, meaning:
• that it swings freely;
• does not move on its own if left in any position;
• each gate leaf is strong and rigid;
• Once installed, there is sufficient clearance between moving
parts during operation of the gate;
to reduce the risk of personal injury and/or entrapment
• It is recommended that Pushbuttons or Keyswitches,
when required, be positioned so that the gate is in line of sight
(Visible from the switch)
5.2. Determine Gate
Opening Angle
Use this procedure to
accurately determine the
gate opening angle:
Step 1
• Close the gate and
measure a distance of one
metre from the centreline
of the gate hinge.
• Make a mark on the
ground
5.2. Determine Gate
Opening Angle
accurately determine the gate
opening angle:
Step 2
• Open the gate and measure
along the gate a distance of
one metre from the
centreline of the gate
hinge.
• Make a mark on the
ground.
• Measure the distance on the
ground between the two
marks (Z).
• Using this Z-Value, read off
the gate opening angle from
the Table below.
5.2. Determine Gate

gate opening angle:

5.3. Key Terms Used
in this Section
Pillar maximum
• The maximum allowable distance measured from the centre of
the gate hinge to the edge of the pillar.
Wall minimum
• This value denotes the minimum amount of space needed to
install the operator and is measured from the side wall to the
gate when the gate is in the open position.
5.4. Side Wall Limitation
-Inward Opening
• The operator must
be installed in
accordance with
these limitations
• If the wall minimum
cannot be achieved,
consider using an
outward swing
configuration.
-Inward Opening – Vert-X
-Inward Opening – Vert-X
• For gates
1.0m to 2.0m
long, the
minimum wall
clearance is
370mm
• For gates
2.0m to 3.0m
long, the
minimum wall
clearance is
540mm
5.5. Pillar Hinge Depth Limitation
- Inward Opening
• An operator must be installed in accordance with these
limitations to ensure that it does not interfere with the
operation of the gate during movement.
• The hinge depth of the gate on the pillar, needs to be checked
against the pillar maximum values to determine if the
installation is possible.
• If the hinge depth of the gate is excessive, the gate may
have to be relocated on the pillar to achieve the required
pillar maximum values.

adhered to in order to ensure reliable operation of your
VANTAGE operator(s):
• Ensure that the Wall Bracket is securely anchored
• Ensure that the operator’s maximum stroke is being utilised
• Only use V-Series cable for the installation
• Leave a 350mm long loop in the cable
• Fit an electric gate lock if the leaf width is greater than 3
metres

Measure the hinge depth from the centre of the hinge point
to the face of the gate.
For this example, a measurement of 25mm will be used.
E-Value = D-Value MINUS Hinge Depth.

Thus: E-Value = 110mm – 25mm = 85mm.
If the E-value is greater than 85mm, you may choose any

installation position shown in Table 6 in the installation manual.
If the E-Value is less than 80mm (for 90° inward opening) or

less than 77.5mm (for 100° inward opening), the operator
WILL foul against the gate during operation
