FAAC Gate Motor Product Range
Hydraulic Swing Gate Operators
FAAC is best known for its hydraulic swing arms, built for wide gates, heavy leaves and high-use environments. We configure single or double gates with correct hinges, stops and forces so they move smoothly and safely.
Sliding Gate Motors
FAAC sliding operators are robust and dependable, suited to both residential driveways and commercial entries. We size the unit to match your gate weight and travel, fit durable gear rack and set precise limits for consistent operation.
Boom Gates and Barriers
FAAC barrier arms are a proven choice for busy Melbourne car parks, commercial driveways and strata complexes. We size arms to lane width, set opening speeds and integrate with access control such as loops, keypads and timers.
Control Panels and Receivers
FAAC control boards are built for reliability, supporting full safety inputs, soft start and stop, and add-on receivers for remotes and intercoms. Integration with access systems is straightforward for both residential and commercial sites.
Safety Sensors and Devices
Photocells, safety edges and lights are available to keep FAAC installs safe and compliant. We mount and test devices carefully to protect people and vehicles while preventing nuisance stops.
Access and Intercom
We pair FAAC operators with remotes, fobs, keypads or intercoms for secure and simple entry. Auto-close schedules and access levels can be programmed for strata and commercial setups.
Power and Backup
Selected FAAC 24 V systems support battery backup for continued use during blackouts. We can size backup kits and configure a pedestrian opening to conserve battery life.
Why We Recommend FAAC Electric Gate Motors in Melbourne
Heavy Use Sites
FAAC motors are designed for frequent cycling and demanding conditions, making them perfect for Melbourne’s strata complexes, car parks and commercial properties.
Wide Residential Swing Gates
For larger homes or properties with wide driveway gates, FAAC hydraulic operators provide smooth and steady movement that lighter motors can’t achieve.
Reliable During Outages
24 V FAAC systems can be fitted with battery backup to keep gates moving in power cuts. We test batteries at each service and ensure manual release is accessible.
