Exit Loop
Automatically opens the gate
for exiting vehicles without
having to use a transmitter or
keypad. The exit loop can be
placed a minimum of 4 feet
away from the reverse loop or
far enough away from the gate
so the gate has started or
completely opened by the time
you drive up to it (Free exit).

Loop lead-in wires are twisted
approx. 6 twists per foot in
PVC conduit to the control box.
Shadow Loop The shadow loop is placed
inside the gate’s swinging path to prevent the
gate from closing on a vehicle in this area. It is
only active when the gate is in the full open
position. Vehicles in the shadow area will
activate it. It will not allow the gate to close
unless this area is clear. After a closing cycle
begins, the shadow loop will not reverse the
gate. Reverse loops work in conjunction with
the shadow loop and both should be used.
Reverse Loops
Reverse loops are placed just outside the
gate’s swinging path to prevent the gate
from closing on a vehicle in these areas.
They will reverse the cycling of the gate
while a vehicle is in or near the gate’s
swing pathway.

Install Warning Signs
This DoorKing Swing Gate Operator is shipped with two warning signs. The
purpose of the warning sign is to alert uninformed persons, and to remind
persons familiar with the gate system, that a possible hazard exists so that
appropriate action can be taken to avoid the hazard or to reduce exposure
to the hazard. See page 8 for suggested mounting positions of signs.
• Permanently install the supplied warning signs in locations so
that the signs are visible by persons on both sides of the gate.
• Use appropriate hardware such as wood or sheet metal screws
(not supplied) to install the warning signs.
To help protect the operator from
accidentally closing on vehicles in
the gate’s path, DoorKing highly
recommends that loops and loop
detectors be installed. Loops are
laid underneath, cut into asphalt or
concrete driveways or buried
beneath gravel and earth driveways.
A loop detection system will sense
a vehicle like a metal detector and
send a signal to the gate operator
preventing the gate from automati-
cally closing on a vehicle when it is
in the gate’s path. DoorKing
recommends that a licensed
installer perform this work.
