Figure 4 - MB-3-320 - Mounting Brackets for Outward Opening Gate on Narrow Posts
This set of mounting brackets are a lot different to the others
because the post mounting bracket has to span into the gateway
from the back of a narrow post for when gates open outwards
and the motors are still inside the property.
They also come with a base plate ready to be bolted or screwed
to a gate and its post. Suitable for use with King Couper, Nice
Wingo 4024 and Centsys Vert-X Swing Gate Motors. The
brackets are for use with Outward Opening Swing Gates that
have their Frame set 50mm from the back of a post from 100mm
square metal or timber. The hinges with this style of gate would
normally be trunnion and gudgeon or similar centred with the
gate frame. The brackets are all made from zinc plated steel.
The Gate Mounting Bracket (GMB) can be bolted to aluminium or
timber gates or self drilling screws can be used for steel framed
gates.
When the Post Mounting Bracket (PMB) is fitted hard up against
the hinge edge of the post the gate will open up to 90o and the
motor protrudes into the gate opening by 230mm. If the hinge is
more than 27mm off the post the PMB can be placed further
towards the hinge to maintain the 150mm between the motor
mounting point and hinge pivot point. If the gate isn't 50mm from
the back of the post the PMB will need to be made with a
different offset from the back of the post to maintain the 150mm
from the motor mounting point to the hinge pivot point (see the
custom made mounting brackets option). This bracket could be
used for wider post if the gate was set 50mm from the back of
the post.
Note: For outward opening gates it is necessary to move
the built in hard stop to the other end of the motor and
reverse the motor wires.
