Installation of Gate Opener
Primary and Secondary Post Brackets
The position of the Primary and Secondary post brackets are crucial to the
success of your installation and attention needs to be paid to both correct
height and position on the post in respect to the relationship between your
hinge pivot point and the motor pivot point on the bracket. Once you have
determined the general desired height of the actuator arm, position the
bracket and take note of the dimensions.
In a standard installation the basic aim is to get the “J” and “K” dimensions to
be as close as possible to equal, but “J” can be greater allowing for a more
positive push of the gate against gate stop.
Hint: The dimension of BOTH J and K for a standard installation is
approximately
For 500mm Arm
J ~ 250 mm
K ~ 250 mm
This dimension is a good initial position to place the
cardboard template.
Please note the above measurements are for a
guide only.
