In short: a Baroxon gate opener kit costs £240 to £1,450 and automates gates from 300 to 1,800 kg on sliding systems, or double leaves up to 400 kg per leaf on swing gates.
Kits include the motor, control board, safety devices and remote controls, with photocells, keypads, GSM modules, Wi-Fi and mobile-app control available on the same board. Safety functions include infrared photocells, adjustable force limits, obstacle detection and a manual release key for power failures, which is what UK installers need for a compliant residential or commercial gate. Spare control boards, motors, remotes and consumables are held in stock for long-term support, so a gate installed today can still be serviced years later. Gate weight, leaf size, hinge condition and the required opening angle are checked before the kit is specified, because the same motor cannot correctly automate every gate.

Each paragraph below states the test condition, the measured value and the benchmark it is compared against, so it can be quoted on its own.
Test condition: sliding gate on a level track, 24 V DC motor at rated load. Result: a 400 kg gate opens in 12 s and an 1,800 kg gate in 22 s, with soft start and soft stop on every cycle. Benchmark: fixed-speed AC operators commonly take 25 to 35 s on the same gate weights and slam the gate at the end of travel.
Test condition: 50 mm obstacle introduced into the closing path of a 400 kg sliding gate, force measured at the leaf edge. Result: force limited to below 140 N and full reversal initiated within 0.4 s. Benchmark: EN 12453 permits up to 400 N for a force-limited operator, so this runs well inside the limit.
Test condition: optional backup battery fitted, mains supply removed with the gate closed. Result: 40 complete open/close cycles on a 400 kg gate, which covers approximately one week of normal residential use. Benchmark: operators without a battery simply stop in position, leaving residents to release the gate by hand.
Test condition: continuous cycling at rated load with a daily-use profile. Result: supported at a 60 % duty cycle with MCBF above 500,000 cycles. Benchmark: some imported kits quote a 20 % duty cycle for the same duty, and control boards and motors are frequently discontinued two to three years after purchase.
