Single Swing Gate Opener Kit 12V – Solar or Mains, Up to 350kg | Australian Made

Description

🇦🇺 Australian made swing gate opener – solar or mains

Most gate openers sold in Australia are imported. The GForce single swing gate kit is designed and manufactured in Melbourne for Australian properties, from remote farms to suburban driveways. When you call for help, you’re talking to the people who build it, and 🔧 spare parts ship from our Melbourne workshop, not from overseas.

📦 What’s in the kit

🔒 Add the GForce mechanical latch (+$80)

The latch locks the gate shut against 💨 strong wind and outside force, with a mechanical lock point independent of the motor. It’s recommended for exposed sites, high-wind areas and 🐄 properties with livestock.

❓ FAQ

🇦🇺 Is this gate opener made in Australia?
Yes. GForce gate openers are designed and manufactured in Melbourne, Victoria.

☀️🔌 Should I choose solar or mains?
Choose solar if there’s no power near the gate, and mains if there’s a power point within reach. Both use the same 12V motor and controller.

🔌 Does the mains version work during a blackout?
Yes. The 12V battery keeps the gate running, and the transformer recharges it once power returns.

📏 What size gate does it suit?
It suits single swing gates up to 350kg and 12ft (3.66m) in steel, aluminium or timber.

🔋 Can I open the gate if the battery goes flat?
Yes. The manual release lets you operate the gate by hand.

🔒 Do I need the mechanical latch?
The latch is optional. It’s recommended for windy or exposed sites, or where extra security is needed.

📱 Can I add more remotes later?
Yes. Extra remotes and accessories are available with your kit or separately at any time.
