Install Patriot Control Box
The control box should be securely mounted to an object or surface strong enough to support the
weight of the box, battery and other components to be installed. The box can be welded or screwed
to a suitable mount. The most common mounts are to an adjoining fence panel or wall. Holes can be
drilled into the control box for mounting prior to component installation.
When deciding where to mount the control box remember the actuator cable is 8 feet in length. If
possible, mount the control box in a location that will allow the cable to be neatly routed. If it must be
longer than the 8 feet, see Step 13b pg 22 Splicing Actuator Cable. Also avoid choosing a mounting
location that is near sprinklers.
We have provided knockouts for conduit ttings
in the control box bottom right corner. We highly
recommend using conduit for all accessory
wiring entering the control box. Determine which
knockouts are to be used and punch out at this
time.
NOTE: One 1 1/4” knockout is already removed
for a single gate installation or for the closest gate
on a dual gate installation.
