RAIL LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
RAIL SPECIFICATION:
Dimensions for the web are based on using a 4” x 4” x 1/4”
thick “Angle Iron” or equivalent with a 4” web section
intended as the contact area for the drive wheels of the ALL
SECURE unit.
1. The contact web of the drive rail must extend no less
than 4 inches from the gate for clearance.
2. Web sections, transitional radii, welds, and gussets
musts not extend more than 1 1/2” from the face of
the gate to avoid interference with the ALL SECURE
casing.
3. The Ideal height for the rail is 9 3/4” from the
underside of the drive rail to the top surface of the
ALL SECURE mounting pad.
RAIL PLACEMENT:
1. Clamp or otherwise secure the rail in the position
shown in Figure 2 with the bottom of the rail lining
up as shown.
2. Repeat this process in at least three separate
locations along the rail as it is attached to the
gate to ensure the rail is within tolerance along
the entire travel length of the gate.
3. Once the rail is in the correct position weld or
otherwise attach the rail to the gate as required
checking to be sure no attachment welds or
hardware interfere with the rail path.
4. If any problems in this process occur, please call
RAMSET customer service immediately.

case with the 3/8=16 UNC washers
and nuts provided to a torque spec
of 27 Ft-lbs.
11

LIMIT BLOCK LOCATION
Installing the limit blocks and adjusting the limit switches is most easily done after the case has been
mounted and before the drive is placed into the case / enclosure. Final adjusting the stop blocks
should be done with the gate powered by the operator.
Limit Blocks
Left Limit Block Right Limit Block
SPECIFICATION:
Without slow stop.
Left hand operation is shown. Switch the words open and close for right hand operation.
1. Once installation is complete, set the slow dip switch down on the control board to the
off position.
2. Move the gate to its fully closed
position and make a vertical line on the
rail at the left edge of the enclosure.
Note: these instructions are based on a
medium weight gate travelling on a flat
surface. Inclines, variations in weight as
well as variations in rolling resistance
can substantially affect the coasting
distance of the gate. In instances
where the conditions differ substantially
it is recommended to run the gate near
the fully open and fully closed point to
determine the coasting distance. Run
12

the gate towards the fully opened position at full speed. Press the stop button a few feet
before fully opened position. Roughly measure the coasting distance from where the
stop button was pressed and where the gate came to rest. Use this as your distance to
mark the offset line.
3. Mark a vertical line “offset line” 12 inches
to the right of the previously drawn line.
(Alternatively you can use the coast
measurement as described above for the
offset distance.)
4. Place the leading (beveled) edge of the
left limit block on the vertical offset line
location towards the operator. Mark your
mounting hole locations in the middle of
the mounting slots.
5. Check to make sure the blocks will
engage the limit switch’s roller arms but
will not interfere with the All Secure Case.
6. Drill mounting holes using a 5/16” steel bit.
7. Mount the block using ¼-20 unc x 1 ½”
long carriage bolt, washers and nuts.
8. Check again for interference.
9. Adjust block forward or back as required
to calibrate the gate to stop at the
correct point.
10. Repeat steps 2 through 9 for the right side
limit block. Beveled edge of the right limit
block faces to the left.
12b

With slow stop.
Left hand operation is shown. Switch the words open and close for right hand operation.
Slow Stop Block (2)
1. Once installation is complete, set the slow dip
switch on the control board up to the on
position.
2. Run the gate to its fully closed position and make
a vertical line on the rail at the left edge of the
enclosure.
3. Mark a vertical line offset by 3 inches to the right
of the previously drawn line.
4. Mark a vertical line 2 feet to the right of the offset
line. This is the slow stop line used to position the
slow stop block.
5. Place the leading (beveled) edge of the left limit
block on the vertical offset line location towards
the operator. Mark your mounting hole locations
in the middle of the mounting slots.
6. Check to make sure the blocks will engage the
limit switch’s roller arms but will not interfere with
the All Secure Case.
7. Place the right edge of the slow stop block at the
slow stop block line. Mark your mounting hole
locations in the holes of the slow stop block.
8. Drill mounting holes using a 5/16” steel bit.
9. Mount the blocks using ¼-20 unc x 1 ½” long
carriage bolt, washers and nuts.
12c

10. Adjust the stop limit block forward or back as
required to calibrate the gate to stop at the
correct point.
11. Repeat steps 2 through 10 for the right side limit
block and slow stop block. Beveled edge of the
right limit block faces to the left. For step 3
change the distance from the offset line to the
stop block line from 2 feet to 3 feet.
Limit Switch Arm Length Adjustment
There are three limit switches located in the All Secure. They are mounted on a switch plate
attached to the rail side of the equipment enclosure. The entire switch plate can be
adjusted up and down by loosening the 2 mounting screws. In most cases this will not be
necessary. The left limit switch is triggered by the left limit block. The right limit switch is
triggered by the right limit block. The middle limit switch is triggered by the slow stop blocks
and are only used if the slow stop option is used.
1. Move the gate so that the left limit switch is
positioned in front of the left limit block. Adjust
the length of the limit switch arm so that it just
barely touches the surface of the block.
2. Move the gate so that the limit switch is clear of all blocks. Adjust
the length of the limit switch arm so that it extends an additional ¼
of an inch towards the rail. Securely tighten the limit arm adjusting
screw.
3. Repeated steps 1 and 2 for the right limit switch and right limit
block. If the slow stop option is used adjust the middle limit switch
using steps 1 and 2 with one of the slow stop blocks. If the slow
option is not used adjust the middle limit switch arm so that it is fully
retracted i.e. farthest from the rail.
