The right sliding gate motor comes down to how heavy your gate is and how often it opens. Here's how the motors we fit compare, across Centurion, ET, DTS and Gemini.
| Gate weight up to | Motors that suit it |
|---|---|
| 250kg, fast | Centurion D10 Smart Plus Turbo |
| 300kg | Centurion D3 Smart Plus, ET Drive 300 |
| 450kg | Centurion D4 Smart Plus |
| 500kg | Centurion D5 Evo Smart Plus, ET Drive 500, DTS Expert 500 |
| 600kg | Centurion D6 Smart Plus, DTS Elite 600 |
| 1,000kg | Centurion D10 Smart Plus, ET Drive 1000 |
| 2,000kg | Centurion D20 Smart Plus |
How busy is your gate?
A home gate that opens a dozen times a day suits any of these. A complex or business gate needs a motor built for traffic: the Centurion D10 and D20 Smart Plus are rated for 750 operations a day, and the ET Drive 1000 runs almost nonstop on mains power.
