The myShark underground motor is one of our most discreet systems to power single or double gates. As well as being discreet, it is also super quiet making it our top recommendation for underground automation.
The myShark motor mechanics are buried within secure steel (choose from galvanised or stainless) underground foundation boxes for ultimate waterproofing and durability.
The powerful electro mechanical motor will operate gates up to 3m in length and can open outwards or inwards. The unit also has in-built opening & closing limit stops.
The fluid-grease lubrication system and the built-in thermal protection ensures a long-lasting working life in any weather conditions without the need for periodic maintenance.
As standard the mySark opens to a 90° angle but will extend to 180° with an adaptor (gate hinge position dependant).
The operators are non-reversible and therefore don’t need the inconvenience or expense of an additional electric lock to keep them closed.
Left and and Right hand gates are denoted by the type of bracket. The way to tell which handed kit you need is by looking from the back of the gates from the inside of the driveway with the property to your back – if the gate is hinged on the left, it’s a left handed gate. If the gate is hinged to the right, it is a right handed gate.
The myShark underground foundation box is installed beneath the gate at the foot of the hinge pillar.
The minimum distance between the vertical centre line of the hinges and the inner face of the pillar is 65mm. There must also be at least 65 mm between the lid of the foundation box and the bottom of the gate.
If fitting underground drivers to wooden gates it will be necessary to clad the gate bottom edge with metal to spread the load and to give something to attach the motor shoe. If you don't, the push/pull from the high torque will eventually split the wood.
All underground motors will operate underwater when new, but if left submerged, it is likely that water will eventually enter the motor and the cable insulation will become porous. It is better to correctly drain the foundation cases from day one to protect your investment! Some additional fabrication/welding may be necessary to connect the drive shoe to your gates.
