The Sentry A6 Max is a sliding gate motor for home and light industrial gates up to 600kg and 30m long. It runs on 220V mains, sets its own gate limits, and has a backlit LCD screen on the controller, so setup and changes are quick. Choose the basic gate motor kit, or the full kit that adds a 4m steel rack and the A6 Max anti-theft bracket.
Which kit do you need?
- Basic kit: A6 Max motor, 2 Sentry 4-button remotes and the base plate. A good fit if your gate already has a rack.
- Full kit with steel rack: everything in the basic kit, plus a 4m steel rack (2 x 2m) and the A6 Max anti-theft bracket.
Battery backup is optional
The A6 Max runs on mains power without a battery, so no battery is included. If you want the gate to keep working during power cuts, add a 12V 7Ah battery. It fits inside the motor and the A6 Max keeps it charged.
- Gate Motor Lithium Battery 12.8V 7Ah: lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4), about 100 openings in a power cut.
- G-MAX7 12V 7.2Ah sealed lead acid battery: AGM and maintenance free, about 50 openings in a power cut.
Opening figures are Sentry's, measured on a 4m, 500kg gate with a fully charged battery.
Make it smart
Add the Gemini Gemlink Lite to open the gate from your phone over Bluetooth or WiFi. The A6 Max also has a plug-in slot for a GSM/Bluetooth or WiFi module.
Built with security in mind
The built-in code-hopping receiver stores up to 500 remote buttons. An anti-tamper alarm uses a vibration sensor to pick up anyone tampering with the motor, and you can set a remote button as a panic button.
