Description
The DoorKing 9024-381 is a 24VDC slide gate operator specifically engineered for solar-powered and off-grid gate automation applications. Designed for residential, commercial, and light industrial properties, this operator combines a powerful 1/2 HP Quadra Drive DC motor with integrated battery backup technology to provide dependable operation where AC power is unavailable or unreliable.
Built to operate from a 24VDC power source, the 9024-381 is ideal for remote entrances, ranches, farms, gated communities, and commercial facilities seeking energy-efficient gate automation. With support for optional solar charging systems and extended battery capacity, this model delivers reliable performance while minimizing power consumption and operating costs.
Performance & Application
The 9024-381 utilizes DoorKing's advanced Quadra Drive DC motor system and heavy-duty 30:1 oil-bath gearbox to provide smooth, quiet, and efficient gate operation. Unlike traditional AC-powered operators, the 24VDC design is optimized for battery-powered and solar-charged installations, making it one of DoorKing's most versatile solutions for remote access control applications.
Capable of automating slide gates up to 40 feet in length and 1,000 pounds, the operator delivers approximately 1 foot per second travel speed while maintaining excellent efficiency. Integrated battery management circuitry protects batteries from excessive discharge while maximizing operating cycles and system longevity.
Advanced control features include anti-tailgating functions, adjustable auto-close timers, selectable loop detector inputs, Gate Tracker™ reporting capabilities, and compatibility with DoorKing access control systems. The operator can be paired with optional solar kits, larger battery banks, and various access control devices to create a complete off-grid automated gate solution.
