It is the right size for a domestic drive or a light commercial or site entrance where a single sliding leaf runs on a level track. The operator slows at each end of travel so the gate starts and stops gently. Gear rack is not part of the kit and is sold separately in 1m lengths. The price shown is for the complete kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cfigure style=\"margin:16px 0\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/3002\/8778\/files\/24v-sliding-gate-automation-kit-400kg-drawing.jpg?width=1200\" alt=\"Drawing of the 24V sliding gate automation kit for gates up to 400kg, showing the motor unit and its published overall dimensions\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:760px;height:auto;margin:0 auto\"\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy this kit works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLow voltage drive suits frequent use.\u003c\/strong\u003e A 24V kit is the better choice where a sliding gate is opened many times in a day, because it has less chance of overheating on repeated cycles.
