APC-790 Heavy Duty Articulated Gate Opener | 4.5m / 300kg Capacity | Automotion Plus
Upgrade your gate with the APC-790 Articulated Swing Gate Opener. Australian-designed for wide pillars and heavy farm gates. Features all-metal gears, a 24V DC motor, and easy forward-mount installation. Shop now for fast AU delivery.
The Ultimate Solution for Wide Pillars and Heavy Gates
The APC-790 Articulated Motor Swing Gate Automation System is engineered specifically for Australian conditions, offering a robust automation solution where standard linear actuators fail. Designed with a versatile "Forward Mount (FM)" and "Side Mount(SM)" geometry, this motor is perfect for brick pillars and large posts, allowing the long arm to reach around corners efficiently. Built with a whisper-quiet 24V DC motor and an all-metal gearbox, the APC-790 guarantees reliability without the weakness of plastic components. Whether you are automating a residential driveway or a rural farm gate, this system delivers high-speed operation with precision control.
Australian Designed Toughness: sealed and weatherproofed to withstand blistering heat and heavy storms.
100% All-Metal Gearbox: Zero plastic or nylon parts. Features six robust steel gears and a copper transfer gear with sealed bearings for a long operational life.
Heavy-Duty Capacity: Capable of operating gates up to 4.5 meters in length or weights up to 300kg.
Flexible Installation: The Forward Mount (FM) or Side Mount (SM) Brackets with Long Arm allow easy installation on brick pillars and wide posts where geometry is tricky.
Precision Limit Switches: Built-in 360°-adjustable cams let you set exact Open and Close positions, protecting your gate and motor from physical strain.
Solar Ready: The 24V DC low-voltage architecture makes it perfectly compatible with APC Sun Power solar kits for off-grid reliability.

Q: Why should I choose an articulated arm (APC-790) over a linear actuator?
A: Articulated arms like the APC-790 Swing Gate Openers are designed for "geometry flexibility." If you have large brick pillars or posts where the hinge is set deep in the centre, a linear arm often hits the corner of the post. The APC-790's "elbow" action allows it to reach around the post, making it the best choice for existing brick pillars.
Q: Is the APC-790 Swing Gate Motor compatible with solar power?
A: Yes, absolutely. The motor operates on 24V DC, making it highly efficient and safe for DIY installation. It pairs seamlessly with the APC Sun Power Solar Kits, allowing you to automate farm gates far from mains power.
Q: Does it come with a warranty?
A: Yes, the APC-790 Swing Gate Motor comes with a 12-month warranty.
Q: Can I install this on a gate that opens outwards (Push-to-Open)?
A: Yes, but you will typically need the Side Mount (SM) bracket upgrade or specific geometry setup. The standard kit is often configured for "Pull-to-Open" (opening inwards towards the property). Check your specific bundle to ensure it includes the correct bracketry for Push-to-Open requirements.
Q: How do I open the gate if the power goes out?
A: The unit features a secure Manual Override System. You simply insert the provided key into the motor body, turn the lever, and the gears disengage, allowing you to push the gate open by hand.
Powder Coated Forward Mounting Bracket which can be used for post and pillar installations. 7mm thick and one piece (not welded) this bracket will not bend or break over time. 150mm in width but being a solid steel bracket additional mounting holes can be drilled to suit narrower posts (100mm).
Powder Coated Side Mounting Bracket which can be used for post and pillar installations. 7mm thick and one piece (not welded) this bracket will not bend or break over time. 350mm in width making it ideal to be used on pillars for optimal holding strength across brick work or to be offset off the post in push to open installs.
