Solar powered gates

Why Solar Power?
A solar powered gate opener is completely self sufficient and can work miles from the nearest mains power. If your mains power is more than 75 meters away, significant savings can be made compared to the ground work and the cost of armoured cable.

Solar Power
Solar panel technology has advanced over the years and the latest panels are capable of producing electricity even on cloudy days.

At GMT we are committed to supplying quality products, for this reason we offer a mono-crystalline panel (that is the part that does the work) a very efficient solar panel in its simplest form. Which has been selected by us for its energy conversion ability as we don't recommend the use of amorphous solar panels due to their poor conversion on cloudy days.

Our panels have built in diodes to stop them from discharging the battery at night.
A fully charged wet battery will power the gates for approximately 2 weeks -1 month's operation.
