5.0 out of 5 stars Great Value
The media could not be loaded. This is a great little motor for under $200! The instructions were for a different model, but I discovered quite a few how-to videos on the internet. The longest part was running my conduit from a power source, but once that was completed, the rest of the installation was a breeze. Ensure your magnets are lined up exactly where you want the gate to open/close and that your chain is aligned correctly with the sprockets. Take your time with this install and make sure to follow all safety precautions when connecting power. Now that my gate is done, I can start my backyard makeover! 🙏🏽5/5 stars for value, quality components, smooth operation, and a quiet motor.
5.0 out of 5 stars Happy with this product! UPDATE.
Not a compensated comment. Overall you can't beat the quality of this product so far, it is hard to say how long the motor will last, but hopefully you can get replacement parts and that would be a plus! Very clean installation and with some modifications it has met my expectations. First of all it comes with basically everything you will need to get it going. The anchors would be a nice addition, I used 3/8 in and is very solid, make sure you start with a good foundation. On my install I timed it with the concrete pour for the gate so is one big slab of concrete and it is solid. My electrical box is on the opposite side of the driveway so I used the gate track and ran the thermostat cable under it, perfect for my needs. The gate was built at exactly 20 ft so no chain modification was required. Since the gate has a lot of metal at the bottom I had to extend the antenna, now it goes all the way up the pole and I can operate the gate at a much farther distance. Looking into adding WIFI module any recommendations would be appreciated. The bolts were a little too long for my gate and should be design with security in mind, maybe allen type or tork head, but nothing a cutting disk can't manage and in my case they are not exposed to the outside where they can be tampered with. The chain tension brackets could use an up and down side to side adjustment sort of like a cross type to be able to offer better adjustment capability to the chain. In my case they worked out just fine. The L bracket could be shorter where the chain bolts down to, just in case the gate pole is too close and hits it, in my case it was perfect and barely miss the poles. The instructions could be better, seems like this is a big issue with some owners. The remotes. I don't like to be looking for a remote while I'm driving to open a gate. I went ahead an installed a visor clip, most will do just make sure the screws you use are not too long that can damage the electronics inside the remote. The wireless keypad works great and should be part of the opener's package, maybe a compatible sensor also. I tried installing a sensor but had no luck, (wired according to 2 videos I watched on U2B) but instead of retracting or stopping the gate when the beam was broken (could hear the relay and the light change from yellow to red) the gate just kept going so I removed it and return it, I will try again since I believe the problem was with the sensor. I would recommend this product at this time. I'm hoping to get many years of trouble free performance, only time will tell. Last but not least, don't forget to lube the chain every so often. Update July 14, 2021, since there is a sidewalk by the gate I installed a strobe light, comes on and off when the gate closes or opens, great visual indications the gate is moving. Will try a WIFI smart switch shortly to see if I can voice open and close. Just need to find a compatible remote for the WIFI switch to simulate the button press to open and close and install a wired magnetic sensor for status checks, or figure out which terminals to hook up the switch to the board if possible, but there is not much information out there for this and the schematic in the manual that came with the opener is not for the model I actually got. Basically the same thing I did for the garage opener and it works like a charm. I like the idea of Alexa opening or closing the gate as I depart or arrive to the house. This would complete this project! UPDATE, 16th July 2021, finally got the voice open/close going, works like a charm with status command. I have to say I'm impressed with this opener. I can open the Alexa app coming back to the house and open the front gate using voice commands with security passcode, the gate is 20 ft long so it takes a while for it to open, I wish the opener had 2 speeds a slow/fast but it doesn't so this way I can have it open by the time I arrive at the house and don't have to stop traffic waiting on it to open. I can also open the garage door the same way. UPDATE: October 2021, Customer support has been excellent! The seller got your back!
5.0 out of 5 stars I was skeptical, but at $189 this thing beats products 3x its price!
I've had a side-yard access gate at my house for approximately 7 years. This is my 3rd gate opener and it should have been my first. I went through two different iterations of rack-and-pinion, low-voltage gate openers from Gate Crafters at the cost of $600 each, and neither one ever worked right. The first one had horrible range and would over-run the limit if it got misaligned. The second one wasn't much better, but the range was approved. The problem with those systems is that it would count revolutions of the motor and count them back down when closing - if the rack skips on the pinion at all while opening, it will try to close past the stop point, and the motor wasn't smart enough to stop - it eventually would have burned up. So the gate always needed to be supervised. What's the point then? Might as well manually open it.Sure, I had to wire 110v for this one, but its worth it! The chain drive is far superior to rack and pinion as it is much less susceptible [impossible?] to skipping. I had to adjust the rack every season to account for temperature changes - that problem appears to go away with this one. This motor is powerful - much more so than the low-voltage one previously; if the rack and pinion were too tight it would just stop moving the gate (extremely frustrating). Again, what's the point of a gate opener then?Installation? I'm a pretty experienced DIYer and figured this out in spite of the quite unclear instructions. Now that I have it installed I see there are many YouTube videos to assist. Just make sure you have something to shorten a chain - I ended up having to cut it off and clean up the end link with a Dremel. Use 1/2" concrete anchors and shim to level if you need to.Oddly, I set the reverse switch as it suggested, but that was unnecessary. I haven't setup auto-close on it, nor the IR sensor (on order) - so I'll have to work through that if my open/close is backwards. Instructions sure could have been clearer on this.Installation time? A couple trips to the hardware store (electrical and concrete anchors). About 2 hours to get the 100v run to it. About 2 hours to test the motor to see how it works with the limit magnets and determine exactly where the motor will be placed as well as the limit magnets (I highly recommend taking your time here to make sure you fully understand before you mount it). About another 3 hours to get it fully mounted, chain installed and tested. Finally, I spent 2 hours playing with it in amazement that it it actually worked correctly unlike the much more expensive previous models.Wow, 5-stars because of price, performance and quality. 1-star for instructions.
2 years and still running strong with no issues
I bought this 2018 and still working. I have a 12 feet custom gate made from 2inch OD pipes and wood which is very heavy and had no problems with the opener. 2 years past and still no sign of any issues or weakness in power. Motor is very strong. Some vibration sounds when it runs but was only coming from the cover which can be minimized easily. I only opened it again because i bought extra key fobs and set it with the machine very easily and no problems. I do not work in trade and have no experience with the install but was able to put it up by myself (excluding electrical work). I read the manual repeatedly to understand how to install it properly. It even has instructions to add other optional features. Im looking to get an IR gate sensor for additional safety features. Im very satisfied with this mean machine.
Excelente producto
Recomiendo amplia mente éste producto, funcionó perfectamente y sin problemas y lo mejor es que puede con el trabajo.
Un buen motor de compuerta sólida
The media could not be loaded. Este abridor de portones funciona perfectamente, tiene fuerza y puede tirar de casi cualquier cosa que le conectes. Solo ten cuidado. Para comprar los controles remotos correctos, compré dos adicionales y eran imitaciones y no funcionaron. Así que asegúrate de hacer el pedido directamente con co-z
Looks like a great purchase. Works excellent now.
Works excellent. Easy to install. Quiet motor. Waiting to see how it works in -40 degree Celsius
Co-z gate opener, easy to set up.
The media could not be loaded. I found it fairly easy to install this co-z gate opener. I built my own gate, 20 feet long. I put it up on a track because here in Canada we get a lot of a snow on the ground. Everything is working perfect so far, it's been 4 months now. I love.
