Low-voltage 24V DC sliding gate automation kit for gates up to 800kg, designed for residential sites.
Low-voltage operation: 24V DC motor supplied with power module that plugs into a 240V mains point.
Gate capacity: Suitable for sliding gates weighing up to 80kkg and up to 8m in length.
Solar/battery compatible: Accepts DC power from solar or battery backup systems via the 24V DC input.
Long cable run: Low-voltage cable allows up to 30m from mains to motor (60m with extension).
Supplied kit format: Includes motor, power module and mounting hardware for straightforward installation.
Safety and durability: IP54 rated housing, spring-limit switches, remote control operation and outdoor-rated components.
The GTR207 kit converts an existing sliding gate into an automatic system, improving site security and removing the need to manually open or close the gate. It plugs into a standard 240V outlet and also supports 24V DC solar power (GTR097). No electrician is required, as the low-voltage power supply allows installation using an existing mains point up to 30m away (60m with extension).
Description
This sliding gate automation kit is engineered for residential properties and remote access sites where a sturdy yet low-voltage solution is required. The GTR207 kit uses a 24V DC motor that is supplied via a power-module plugged into a standard 240V mains outlet — this makes installation simpler and safer than full mains-powered systems. With the capacity to drive gates up to 800kg in weight and up to 8m in length, it offers serious performance for a wide range of gate types. The low-voltage cable run can extend up to 30m (or 60m with extension), giving flexibility in installation without the need for complex mains wiring.
Beyond its core function, the kit is designed for backup power integration. It accepts a DC supply from solar panels or battery systems, making it ideal for sites that require access during power outages or prefer renewable-supported operation. The supplied mounting plate and fixings simplify the job for installers, and the low-voltage design reduces the need for specialised electrical work. With built-in remote control capability, outdoor-rated construction and limit-switch safety features, this kit provides a practical, trades-oriented solution for gate automation that emphasises flexibility, safety and reliability.
Product FAQs
The kit uses a 24V DC motor. The supplied power module allows it to be powered from a standard 240V mains outlet and converts to the required low voltage.
Yes. The motor is built for DC input and is therefore compatible with solar or battery backup systems, which makes it ideal for installations needing uninterrupted operation.
It supports sliding gates up to 800 kg in weight and up to 8 m in length when installed on a correctly aligned track.
Yes. The kit includes the motor, power module, mounting plate and fixings. The low-voltage cable can run up to 30 m from the mains point, reducing the need for complex mains wiring.
The kit features IP54 rated motor housing, built-in spring limit switches for end of travel, remote control operation and is designed for regular outdoor use.
