SECTION 1 - INSTALLATION
Prior to beginning the installation of the slide gate operator, we suggest that you become familiar with the
instructions, illustrations, and wiring guide-lines in this manual. This will help insure that your installation is
performed in an efficient and professional manner compliant with UL 325 safety and ASTM F2200 construction
standards.
The proper installation of the vehicular slide gate operator is an extremely important and integral part of the
overall access control system.
Check all local building ordinances and building codes prior to installing
this operator. Be sure your installation is in compliance with local codes.
1.1 Hardware for the Gate
Good hardware is essential for proper operation of a sliding gate. DoorKing has a full line of gate hardware products that will
ensure safe, reliable and long lasting gate operation. The gate must be properly installed and roll smoothly in both directions.
Gate End Retainer - Helps stabilize
the end of the gate in the open or
closed position. Endless Idler Assembly with
Protective Cover - Helps to
minimize a pinch point for a
180° chain return. Guide Rollers with
Protective Covers - Helps
to minimize a pinch point
on the gate. Roller Bearing V-Wheels
with Protective Cover - Helps
to minimize a pinch point on
the gate’s wheel and V-rail.
1.2 Underground Conduit Requirements
• The conduit requirements are for a typical slide gate operator installation (the secondary operator is shown for
those applications where a secondary operator may be used). The conduit requirements for your application may
vary from this depending on your specific needs.
• Use only sweeps for conduit bends. Do not use 90° elbows as this will make wire pulls very difficult and can cause
damage to wire insulation.
• DoorKing recommends using 3/4-inch conduit.
• Be sure that all conduits are installed in accordance with local codes.
• Never run low voltage rated wire insulation in the same conduit as high voltage rated wire insulation.
