Motorization solutions for sliding gates

Motorize your sliding gate

Sliding gate motorization offers several options according to your needs. The rack motor is the classic solution for standard sliding gates, while the invisible motor offers discretion and efficiency.
For more restricted spaces, specialized motors are available, such as those for sectional, antagonist, or telescopic gates. These solutions optimize space while ensuring smooth and secure use.

Sliding gate with invisible motorization

Sliding gate with invisible motorization

Invisible motorization for sliding gates is integrated into a pillar. This design and aesthetic solution protects the motor from weather and dirt that, over time, can hinder its proper operation.

This quieter gate motorization offers optimal acoustic comfort and ease of use thanks to rapid opening. Every 5 seconds, the gate opens one meter.

Classic sliding gate

Classic sliding gate

The motorized sliding gate secures and facilitates access to your property. Unlike a motorized swing gate, its automatic opening is done laterally, along your wall or fence thanks to a guide rail fixed to the ground.

Its installation requires having a lateral clearance space at least equal to that between the two pillars, plus 50 centimeters.

All Kostum sliding gates can be motorized to adapt to the aesthetics of your property.

Sectional sliding gate

Sectional sliding gate

The sectional sliding gate is a response to small spaces. Consisting of several articulated panels, the sectional gate slides at an angle along a wall and thus offers you considerable space savings.

Custom-made and available in several models, the aluminum sectional gate adapts to the style of your property. It exists in urban style gate, slat gate or traditional style gate.

Antagonist sliding gate

The antagonist sliding gate is the answer to reduced spaces. If your land is too small to accommodate a classic sliding gate in one panel, opt for this motorized alternative.

Equipped with a central opening, your gate separates into two panels.

Self-supporting sliding gate

Self-supporting sliding gate

In certain cases, disruptive elements: stones, leaves, snow, irregular terrain, make classic sliding impossible. Thanks to discrete suspension, the self-supporting sliding gate then presents itself as an optimal solution.

Requiring less masonry work, the motorized self-supporting gate brings aesthetics to your property as it eliminates the ground rail and delimits your entrance with complete lightness.

Telescopic sliding gate

Telescopic sliding gate

Telescopic sliding opening is designed for spaces offering neither room for swing opening, nor large lateral displacement. It's an ideal motorized solution for residential developments.

The telescopic sliding gate allows you to fence your entrance with a displacement width roughly divided by 2. Indeed, in automatic opening, the two panels slide one behind the other.

Control your swing gate your way

Practicality, durability & design

With a wide range of possibilities, you can customize your motorized swing gate according to your preferences. From choosing the gate design to the control method, every detail can be adapted to your lifestyle. When it comes to power supply, you also have the choice: opt for a traditional electrical connection or an ecological solution with solar panels. Whatever your option, you will benefit from a reliable and efficient motorization system.

Choose the control of your opening

There are many ways to control a gate. Opening and closing can be controlled from a remote control, keypad, smartphone or even a connected watch.

To enjoy maximum comfort, you can experience the connected home with Somfy's Tahoma Switch. From the Tahoma Switch app or voice command, you can program scenarios and control the closing of your motorized gate remotely. You can connect other home equipment to this box to centralize controls: heating, lighting, shutters...

Use solar energy

If the environment does not allow you to run a power cable between the electrical meter and the gate, a solar kit allows you to power the motor via a set of batteries.

A solar installation is subject to weather conditions and a decrease in sunshine level over a long period will harm the proper functioning of your gate.

Beacon post option

Beacons are lighting devices that increase your safety. Visual signaling warns drivers and pedestrians of gate opening and closing and indicates car movements between your garden and the outside.

Kostum has two types of beacon: a classic flashing version and a more design version. The second is a luminous tip that replaces the classic beacon and is compatible only with the Multo gate post, Somfy and FAAC motors.
