Products and Op
Commercial gate openers are typically powered by electric motors, and some have solar-powered capabilities. There are many different types of openers, generally categorized by the type of gate movement. At Jammer Doors, we stock LiftMaster gate openers that come with safety and security features, including:
Slide Gate Operators
Slide gate openers work by moving the gate horizontally. They are often used with a chain-driven track, but they can also be designed without a track (cantilever design). Cantilever options are better for uneven ground or snowy environments because they don’t touch the ground. Slide gate openers are often used on steep or short driveways or where heavy-duty security is needed.
Swing Gate Operators
Swing gate openers are used for gates that open like a standard door. They often use a linear or articulated arm that extends and retracts to move the gate. They can be used for both single and dual-leaf gates, and may use either hydraulic or electromechanical power. Swing gate operators are generally used for residential use, but they can also be suitable for certain commercial properties.
Barrier Arm Operators
Barrier arm operators are for operating barrier arms, which are typically used to prevent unauthorized access into parking lots, access lanes, or garages. They are well-suited for high-traffic areas and help to manage traffic flow in commercial environments. Barrier arm operators are often integrated with access control systems, and they generally have safety features to prevent them from closing on vehicles or pedestrians.
Vertical Lift/Vertical Pivot Operators
For properties with constrained footprints, vertical lift or vertical pivot operators may be ideal. They use high-speed operation to raise gates vertically or pivot them, making them best for high-traffic areas that have limited side space for swinging or sliding gates.

Specs That Matter
When looking at commercial gate openers, there are a few important specifications that you’ll need to review. They include:
- Duty cycle and horsepower: Look for models with high duty cycles or continuous use to prevent downtime. In terms of horsepower, commercial gate openers typically require a higher HP to properly move heavy, commercial-grade gates.
- Voltage and phase: When browsing gate openers, you’ll come across different voltages and phases. For commercial purposes, look for three-phase (208V/230V/460V) models.
- Gate weight/length: Gate openers have weight and length capacities, so they can properly move the gate. Make sure you choose a model that accommodates the gate you need to move. It’s best to choose an operator with a weight capacity that is 20% more than the weight of your gate to account for hinge friction and wind resistance.
- Safety standards and sensors: Commercial gate openers come with safety standards, typically meeting UL 325 standards, which require at least two independent, compliant entrapment protection sensors, such as photo eyes or edge sensors.
Commercial gates should typically have high horsepower, three-phase designs, and meet UL 325 standards.
