Product FAQs
The GTR510 is designed for automated sliding gates in residential and light commercial settings. It can operate gates weighing up to 800kg, making it suitable for wider or heavier panels than standard domestic motors.
Yes. The GTR510 uses a 24V DC motor which enables “almost silent operation” by reducing mechanical vibration and allowing for smooth electronic speed control which is ideal for residential properties.
The motor connects to a standard 240V AC input, but internally converts to 24V DC. This design allows compatibility with Richmond’s battery backup and solar kits for added resilience during power outages.
Each kit includes:
1x sliding gate motor
2x remotes
2x manual release keys
2x limit travel stops
1x motor mounting plate
Fixing hardware and instruction manual
Gear racks are sold separately.
Yes. The GTR510 kit does not include a gear rack. Richmond recommends the GTR092 nylon rack, which is compatible with the system’s Module 4 pinion and designed to reduce noise during operation.
Yes, with additional accessories. The GTR510 is compatible with battery backup and solar input options, including the GTR097 Solar Kit. These allow continued use when mains power is unavailable.
It features an electronic current-sensing safety system. If the motor detects a spike in resistance—such as from a person or object—the motor automatically stops or reverses to prevent damage or injury.
Yes. The system supports programmable auto-close timing and has adjustable opening and closing times. The gradual speed change at start and end of travel provides smoother gate movement and helps reduce wear.
