Heavy-Duty 24V Swing Gate Motor for High-Traffic Entrances

Some gates open and close dozens of times a day — apartment complexes, commercial entrances, community access points. That's where the BFT KUSTOS BT A40 earns its keep. Built in Italy for intensive use, it handles swing gates up to 500 KG and 4 meters per leaf, completing a full cycle in around 17 seconds without straining.

The standout feature here is BFT's D-Track technology, which continuously reads torque during operation rather than relying on a fixed sensor threshold. That means the motor adapts its response based on actual resistance — smoother handling of heavier gates, and quicker reaction if something blocks the path. Pair that with magnetic limit switches (more precise and lower-maintenance than mechanical ones) and you get a gate that positions accurately cycle after cycle, even after years of daily use.

For property owners worried about power outages, the KUSTOS BT A40 includes a personal key release system — manual override without tools, so the gate can still be opened by hand when the power's out. The mechanical locking system keeps the gate secure at rest, no separate electric lock required.

Built to IP44 standards and rated for -20°C to +55°C, this motor is designed to keep working through Oman's summer heat, coastal humidity, and dust without performance drop-off.

Best Suited For

Decorative wrought-iron gates and heavier villa entrances benefit most from the 24V intensive-use rating — this isn't a light-duty motor for occasional use, it's built for gates that see real daily traffic. Residential communities and commercial properties running automated access control also rely on the THALIA control panel for stable, professional-grade management.

Common Questions

Is this motor strong enough for a heavy wrought-iron gate? Yes — rated up to 500 KG, it's built specifically for heavier decorative and villa-style gates.

What happens during a power outage? The personal key release system lets you manually open the gate by hand, no electricity needed.

How does D-Track obstacle detection work? It monitors torque in real time and reacts to unexpected resistance, rather than depending on a fixed sensitivity setting.

Is the KUSTOS BT A40 good for gates used many times daily? Yes — it's rated for intensive use, built specifically for high-frequency entrances.
