The SUB motors are fitted below ground level with the operator drive shaft aligned with the axis of the gate hinge.

In order to attain this alignment the hinge centre must be clear of the face of the gate post by 65mm.

The operator will support an 600 kg load and it is recommended that it replaces the lower hinge of the gate (i.e. not installed below a pair of existing hinges) The operator runs on a timed sequence set at the system control panel. Gate stops are required in the open and closed position of the gate to stop the gate before the operator reaches the end of its travel.

The SUB Motor is the choice of thousands of professional installers. For reliability and longevity of service the SUB unit is hard to beat.

Non locking SUB motors (E, ER, GE) require an electronic lock to be added to the system.

All SUB motors operate through 110 degrees aswell as the option open through 180 degrees.

Easy to fit:
All SUB Motors are supplied with a heavy, load bearing steel foundation box (CPS). Gates can be pre-hung on these boxes and the motors retro-fitted (Also useful for servicing). The foundation box is load bearing, will support an 600kg load and replaces the lower hinge.

Suitable for:
Metal gates, Timber gates (panel)

For Small & Medium close boarded (wind affected) gates please refer to the BFT underground kits
