Gate Operator FAQ

Below you'll find a list of questions that people have asked us about either installing or maintaining their gate operators or access control systems.

GTO/Pro problem with board?

I have a GTO series 1000 single opener. The unit locks open all the time & when it does both the black and red wires show to be hot at the board. It is not the motor as I checked it and it works both directions when tested by itself. I feel that the problem is the control board.

If this is correct let me know and the price.

Will this wire be enough?

Will the often recommended low voltage wire, described as 16 gauge, multi- stranded, dual conductor, direct burial wire be sufficient from 750 feet distance from source to gate. If so, what other wire should I put in, can I put two wires in and potentially use it for other gadgets?
