C - INSTALLATION
1 - HAZARD ANALYSIS
1.1 - Regulations
Installation of a motorised gate or a motor drive on
an existing gate within the framework of “Residential”
type use must be compliant with Regulation (EU)
305/2011 concerning building products.
The reference standard used to check this
compliance is EN 13241-1 which refers to a
framework of several standards including EN 12445
and EN 12453 which specify the motorised gate
safety methods and components to reduce or
completely eliminate hazards to people.
The installer must train the end user on the correct
operation of the motorised gate, and the trained
user must train the other people likely to use the
motorised gate, using this guide.
It is specified in standard EN 12453 that the
minimum protection of the gate’s primary edge
depends on the type of use and the type of control
used to set the gate in motion. The gate motor drive
is a press control system, i.e. simply pressing one of
the control parts (remote control, key selector, etc.)
sets the gate in motion.
This gate motor drive is equipped with a force
limiter which complies with appendix A of EN 12453
standard, within the framework of use with a gate
that is compliant with the specifications given in this
chapter. The specifications of EN12453 standard
therefore enable the 3 following use cases, as well
as the minimum levels of protection:
• Press activation with non-visible
gate
Minimum level of protection: Force limiter only.
• Press activation with non-visible
gate
Minimum level of protection: Force limiter and 2
pairs of photocells to protect the gate’s opening
and closing.
• Automatic control (automatic
closure)
Minimum level of protection: Force limiter and 1 pair
of photocells to protect the gate’s automatic closing.
The flashing light is an essential safety component.
The proper operation of the safety devices must be
checked every six months.
1.2 - Specications of the gate to motorise
This motor drive can automate swing gates up to
2.50m wide and 2.20m high and weighing 150kg.
These maximum dimensions and weights are for an
openwork-type gate and for use in an area that is
not very windy. For use in an area with significant
wind speed, it is necessary to reduce the maximum
values indicated above for the gate to be motorised.
1.3 - Safety checks on the gate
The motorised gate is strictly for residential use.
The gate must not be installed in an explosive or
corrosive atmosphere (presence of gas, flammable
smoke, vapour or dust).
The gate must not have locking systems (latch, lock,
bolt, etc.).
The hinges of the gate must be on the same axis and
the axis must be vertical. The posts supporting the
gate must be strong and stable enough so that they
do not bend (or break) under the weight of the gate.
Without the motor drive, the gate must be in good
mechanical conditions, correctly balanced and open
and close without friction or resistance. Greasing the
hinges is recommended. Check that the fastening
points of the different components are in locations
that are sheltered from shock and that the surfaces
are solid enough. Check that the gate does not have
any part protruding from its structure. The central
stop and side stops must be appropriately fastened
so as not to give way under the force exerted by the
motorised gate.
If installation does not correspond to one of the
cases shown in the guide, contact us so that we can
provide all the components necessary for proper
installation with no risk of damage.
The motor drive cannot be used with a driven part
that has a door.

EN9EN 8
C - INSTALLATION
1.4 - Safety rules
The actual opening of a gate may create dangerous situations for people, goods and vehicles in the vicinity
that by nature, cannot always be avoided by design.
The possible hazards depend on the state of the gate, the manner in which it is used and the installation site.
After having checked that the gate to be motorised complies with the requirements given in this chapter and
before beginning the installation, a hazard analysis of the installation must be conducted in order to eliminate
all dangerous situations or to indicate them if they cannot be eliminated.
2 - ELIMINATING HAZARDS
The hazards posed by a two-panel motorised gate, as well as the adapted solutions to eliminate those
hazards, are as follows:
Subpanels
Following installation, there may be a shear zone between the panel and the corner of the post.
In this case, it is recommended to remove this zone leaving a minimum working distance of 25 mm either
by positioning the side stops accordingly or by notching the corner of the posts without weakening them, or
both if necessary.
If this is not possible, the hazard must be clearly reported.

PREVENTING OTHER HAZARDS
The body of a switch with no lock must be located in direct view of the driven part but away from moving
parts. Unless it operates with a key, it must be installed at a minimum height of 1.5 m and must not be
accessible to the public.
After installation, ensure that the components of the gate do not hang above a footpath or public access road.
3 - INSTALLING THE MOTORS
The motor drive must be installed by qualified personnel, in compliance with all the indications provided in the
“General warnings.”
Before starting installation, ensure that:
• Hazards can be minimised by following the recommendations under the Chapter “Hazard analysis.”
• The desired use has been correctly defined.
• The gate complies with the specifications provided in the Chapter “Specifications of the gate to motorise.”
The different stages of installation must be followed in order and in compliance with the indications given.

EN11EN 10
C - INSTALLATION
• The use of stops is mandatory (not provided)
This gate motor drive is a self-locking motorisation system. Your 2-panel gate must be equipped with a central
stop and side stops (not included).
The (central and side) stops must stop the gate without locking it. In other words, any mechanical lock (or
latch) and any tilting shoe base or stopper must be removed.
The installation of the side stops depends on the desired opening angle which depends on distance D (the
distance between the axis of the hinge and the inner side of the post).
