The most classic style, the swing gate, is the one that opens up in front of us. It consists of one or two leaves that usually open inware, rotating on pins or hinges fixed to columns on both sides of the entrance.
This type of gate can be automated in various ways, by means of external or underground operators, depending on the functional and aesthetic requirements to be met.
Each solution guarantees ease and reliability, one opening after another.
How do you choose the right swing solution for you?
There are many selection criteria, starting with the dimensions. The gate width is the first to be evaluated, then the structure of the gate.
If, for example, they are made of wrought iron and are small, a compact and unobtrusive solution is found in the 415, equipped with an emergency manual release using a customised key.
Hydraulic operators, like the 402, are the ideal solution if the gate leaf is small but heavy.
Use frequency also makes a difference: if a small residential gate opens many times a day, the S418 model is the ideal solution.
Is your gate set on large pillars?
No problem: when the gate is supported by large columns and their structure is not to be altered with niches for the operator, you can opt for an articulated arm solution, like the 391. It is simple to install, particularly versatile, fitted with an emergency manual key release and is, of course, perfect for large pillars and side walls.
Everything moves, even in a power outage.
In an emergency, the 24V operators can run on battery back-up, without manually unlocking the gates, so there is no interruption in function.
Of course, there is a model for each situation. For example, the 770N, an invisible in-ground solution, which does not disturb the appearance of the gate, or the S450H external operator, which can be mounted directly on the leaf.
Less consumption, more performance.
All the automation systems for swing gates are technologically advanced in terms of safety as well as energy savings. The 24V models, for example, are set up for safety functions, allowing the gate to immediately re-open when it encounters an obstacle.
A function which, today, is also available for the 230V models, thanks to the implementation of additional devices, such as the SAFEcoder.
Environmental protection plays an important role in the development of modern technology. FAAC implements SAFEzone and Greentech technologies to guarantee optimal performance and limit power consumption.
