The first point to deal with is the type of gate because there are two large families of gates: the sliding type and the swing type.
Sliding gates have a single very large leaf which moves, thanks to a system of metal wheels, on a track, allowing the gate to open wide laterally. This model is ideal for large industrial companies that require a continuous passage of cars and heavy vehicles within the property.
Swing gates, on the other hand, can have one or two doors that open by rotating on a pin towards the inside or outside of the house. Specific for private residences or condominium complexes, they do not require a side space but take advantage of the area in front of the gate, avoiding unnecessary bulk.
Once the type of gate has been defined, it is necessary to know the weight and frequency of use. These two elements are decisive for the choice of the specific engine.
An industrial sliding gate has a considerable weight and is on average opened and closed more than one hundred times a day, this means that the automatism indicated to support the movement is completely different from a swing gate for a private home which has a weight minor and does not reach the twenty openings per day.
