Reliable, Easy-to-Install 300kg Gate Automation for Residential Use
The Acer 300kg Setup Sliding Gate Kit is a complete, ready-to-install solution for automating residential gates up to 300kg. Built with ease and efficiency in mind. This 24V motor kit is especially well-suited for lightweight aluminium pipe gates frequently used in suburban homes. Whether you’re upgrading an older motor or automating your gate for the first time, the Acer kit provides everything needed to get the job done quickly and reliably.
This all-in-one package includes the motor, control board, mounting plate, fittings, and two remote controls. Ensuring you have the essentials straight out of the box. If your gate is longer than standard, additional gear racks are available separately, allowing you to customise the setup to suit your gate’s size. Programming the system is straightforward, and installation can be completed in a short time by most competent installers or DIY enthusiasts.
Flexible Power Options and Installation Benefits
The Acer 300kg setup stands out for its adaptable power configuration. Instead of requiring in-ground cabling or heavy trenching, it can operate via a 24V AC external transformer. This feature is especially valuable for retrofit projects or homes where preserving the landscape and avoiding major electrical work is a priority.
For added convenience and peace of mind, a backup battery option is also available. This is highly recommended for properties with a single entrance gate. As it ensures your gate continues working during a power outage—maintaining both access and security without interruption.
Performance on Slopes
Unlike many entry-level gate motors, the Acer 300kg system can handle mild slopes with ease. However, it’s important to account for slope incline when determining suitability. Use these general guidelines to calculate effective gate weight based on slope:
- 50mm rise over 3m = 180kg effective gate weight
- 100mm rise over 3m = 130kg effective gate weight
- 150mm rise over 3m = 100kg effective gate weight
For steeper inclines or heavier gates, consider stepping up to the 400kg High-Speed Setup or the DEUS 600 HP Setup for more torque and reliable performance. Additionally, we strongly recommend adding a gate dampener (brake) on sloped installations to reduce bounce and maintain smooth, safe movement.
Conclusion for the Acer 300kg Setup
In summary, the Acer 300kg Sliding Gate Kit offers a practical and efficient automation solution for homeowners seeking reliability without complexity. From its flexible installation options to its slope-handling capabilities, this kit delivers excellent performance and long-term value. Easy to install, intuitive to use, and built to last, the Acer kit is a trusted choice for modern residential gate automation.
