Before We Install a Sliding Gate Motor (Dubai)

  • Most installation problems come from the gate, not the motor. We first check the gate movement and load so the new motor doesn’t get damaged.
  • Manual movement test (gate should move smoothly by hand)
  • Track and rollers condition (friction, wear, sand buildup)
  • Rack & pinion alignment (prevents jerking and gear damage)
  • Gate level and end stoppers (avoids hard impact)
  • Power supply and protection (stable power for control board)
  • Safety devices (photocells) placement and testing

If the gate is heavy or misaligned, we fix that first — then install the motor.

Choosing the Right Sliding Gate Motor (Dubai)

A sliding gate motor must be selected based on load, duty cycle, and environment. Using an undersized or mismatched motor leads to overheating, board failure, and early breakdown.

What we calculate before selecting a motor

  • Gate weight (not estimated — checked)
  • Gate length & inertia (long gates need higher torque)
  • Daily usage (villa vs building vs commercial)
  • Duty cycle (intermittent vs continuous operation)
  • Dubai conditions (heat, dust, voltage fluctuation)
  • Safety integration (photocells, force limits, soft stop)

Recommended Motor Classes (BFT & NICE)

Residential / Villa Sliding Gates

  • Quiet operation
  • Medium-duty motors
  • Optimized for heat and low noise
  • Suitable for daily home use

If you prefer BFT systems, see our BFT Sliding Gate Motor Dubai page for supply and compatibility.

Heavy Villa / Building Entrances

  • Higher torque motors
  • Metal gear transmission
  • Stable control boards with thermal protection
  • Designed for frequent cycles

Commercial / High-Traffic Gates

  • High duty-cycle motors
  • Continuous operation support
  • Advanced safety and force management
  • Long-term reliability under load

Motor Setup Matters More Than Brand

Even the best motor will fail if:

  • Force is set too high
  • Limits are poorly calibrated
  • Safety inputs are ignored
  • Gate resistance is not accounted for

That’s why we configure, test, and fine-tune every motor after installation.

Send the gate photo, length, and usage details on WhatsApp — we’ll recommend the correct motor before installation.

Our Sliding Gate Motor Installation Process (Dubai)

We install and commission the system properly — power, control board, limits, safety inputs, and final testing.

  1. Site check + motor selection confirmation (weight, usage, duty cycle)
  2. Mounting & base alignment (motor position, vibration control, drainage clearance)
  3. Rack engagement setup (correct pinion contact to prevent wear and noise)
  4. Wiring & control board setup (clean terminals, safe routing, stable power)
  5. Programming & calibration (limits, force, soft start/stop, auto-close if needed)
  6. Safety integration (photocells tested, safe reverse verified)
  7. Final commissioning (smooth movement, remote range check, multiple cycle test)

Before handover, we run repeated cycles and confirm the gate stops smoothly and reverses safely when required.

What to Send on WhatsApp (Before Installation)

What to Send on WhatsApp (Before Installation)

To recommend the correct sliding gate motor and avoid rework, send us:

  • A photo of the gate (full view)
  • Gate length (approx.) and usage (villa / building / commercial)
  • A short video of the gate moving (if existing)
  • Motor label photo (if replacing an old motor)

We confirm motor class, accessories, and installation scope before visiting.
