This Gemini gate motor kit adds the Gemini anti-theft bracket and 4m of steel rack to the Gemini Slider 12Ah. You get the motor, a Gemini Anti Tamper-Slider bracket, two 2m lengths of steel rack, a 12V 12Ah battery and two Gemini 3-button remotes, for busier home gates up to 500kg where motor theft is a worry. Need less? See the 12Ah kit without rack or the 12Ah kit with 4m steel rack. For lighter use there is the 7Ah kit with rack and anti-theft bracket.

What is in the box

Everything below comes in this kit:

  • Gemini Slider 500 motor (12Ah version)
  • Control card
  • Power supply
  • 12V 12Ah battery
  • 2 x Gemini 3-button remotes
  • Base plate
  • Override lever
  • 2 keys
  • Lid
  • Fuses
  • Oil
  • 4m steel rack (2 x 2m)
  • Gemini Anti Tamper-Slider bracket

How the Gemini anti-theft bracket works

Gemini's Anti Tamper-Slider bracket is made from 5mm thick electroplated mild steel and fits over the motor's override lever, so the override cannot be forced without cutting through the bracket. Gemini is clear that it does not totally eliminate the risk of theft, but it makes the motor a lot harder to get at.

Gemini gate motor 12Ah performance

Gemini rates the Slider 500 for sliding gates up to 500kg, on condition that the gate runs on 80mm roller-bearing wheels. It moves the gate at 26 m/min through a 23:1 gearbox, with 30 kgf starting pull and 17 kgf rated pull. The 12Ah version is rated for 200 openings a day at a 75% duty cycle, and Gemini recommends it for higher traffic or where you want more backup. With the battery in place, the gate still works in a power cut for as long as the battery has charge.

What you still need

Rack stoppers and safety beams are not in this box. Add Gemini infrared wireless beams, because the collision sensing only reverses the gate while it is closing, and a Gemlink Lite smart device if you want to work the gate from your phone. If the gate needs more than 4m of rack, add a Gemini 2m steel rack. Gemini gives 24 months on mechanical parts and 12 months on electrical parts, and batteries are not covered. Alectra Solutions supplies the equipment only, so have the kit fitted by your own gate installer.

Questions people ask
What is in the Gemini gate motor kit with anti-theft bracket?

The Gemini Slider 500 (12Ah) with control card, power supply, 12V 12Ah battery, 2 x Gemini 3-button remotes, base plate, override lever, 2 keys, lid, fuses, oil, 4m steel rack (2 x 2m) and the Gemini Anti Tamper-Slider bracket.

What does the anti-theft bracket protect?

It fits over the motor's override lever. It is 5mm electroplated mild steel, so the override cannot be forced without cutting through the bracket.

Will the bracket stop theft completely?

No. Gemini says the bracket does not totally eliminate the risk of theft. It makes the motor harder to get at.

How long will the 12Ah battery last in a power cut?

Gemini gives no figure for openings on battery. It depends on the gate's weight, how freely it runs and how often it is used. Gemini recommends the 12Ah over the 7Ah where you want more backup.

How many times a day can the gate open?

Gemini rates the 12Ah slider for 200 openings a day at a 75% duty cycle.

Are safety beams included?

No. Infrared beams and rack stoppers are sold separately. The collision sensing only reverses the gate while it is closing, so beams are worth adding.

What warranty does Gemini give?

24 months on mechanical parts and 12 months on electrical parts. Batteries are not covered.
