Why Choose the LA500 Dual Gate Operator Kit with KPW250?
This package is designed for properties that need two-leaf swing gate automation plus access for a larger number of users.
The LA500PKGUL provides the primary actuator and control system, while the included LA500DCS secondary actuator operates the second gate leaf. LiftMaster identifies the LA500DCS specifically as the secondary 24VDC actuator for dual swing gate applications.
For access control, the KPW250 provides substantially greater user capacity than the KPW5. The KPW250 can store up to 250 permanent four-digit PINs, compared with five permanent PINs on the KPW5, while both support up to 10 temporary PINs.
That makes this package particularly attractive for:
- Gated communities and HOA entrances
- Multi-user residential properties
- Apartment and condominium entrances
- Small businesses
- Commercial properties
- Private facilities
- Residential estates
- Other dual-gate controlled-access entrances
Two LiftMaster 811LMX remotes provide convenient single-button vehicle access and use LiftMaster's Security+ 2.0 encrypted DIP technology.
The included 828LM Internet Gateway connects compatible myQ-enabled LiftMaster gate operators to the Internet through an Ethernet connection to the property's router, enabling supported myQ functionality.
Finally, the 72" in-ground gooseneck pedestal provides a dedicated driveway mounting location for the KPW250.
LiftMaster LA500PKGUL Dual + KPW250 Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this a dual LA500 gate operator system?
This kit includes both the LA500PKGUL primary operator package and LA500DCS secondary actuator. The LA500DCS operates the second gate leaf in a compatible dual swing gate installation.
What is included with this complete kit?
The package includes the LA500PKGUL, LA500DCS secondary actuator, KPW250 wireless keypad, two 811LMX remotes, 828LM Internet Gateway, and 72" in-ground pedestal.
How many PIN codes can the KPW250 store?
The KPW250 supports up to 250 permanent four-digit PINs and 10 unique temporary PINs.
What's the difference between the KPW5 and KPW250 LA500 kits?
The primary difference is user capacity.
The KPW5 supports up to 5 permanent PINs, while the KPW250 supports up to 250 permanent PINs. Both support up to 10 temporary PINs.
For a residence with only a few regular users, the KPW5 package may be sufficient. The KPW250 version is better suited to communities, businesses, multi-user properties, and other entrances requiring many individual access codes.
Does the KPW250 require control wiring back to the LA500?
No. The KPW250 communicates wirelessly with compatible LiftMaster operators. LiftMaster specifies an open-field operating range of up to 500 ft., although actual range varies with site conditions and obstructions.
What does the LiftMaster 828LM do?
The 828LM Internet Gateway connects compatible myQ-enabled LiftMaster gate operators to the Internet. It connects to the property's router through Ethernet and enables supported myQ functionality.
What size gates can the LA500 operate?
LiftMaster rates the LA500 platform for compatible swing gates up to 18 ft. or 1,600 lbs. Proper gate construction, hinges, installation geometry, hardware, and site conditions must also be considered.
Does the LA500 have battery backup?
Yes. Battery backup is a standard feature of the LA500 platform, allowing continued operation during many AC power interruptions.
Can this system be converted to solar later?
The LA500 is a solar-ready platform, so compatible solar equipment can be incorporated into an appropriately designed installation.
GatePoint Solutions also offers dedicated LA500 Dual Solar Gate Operator Kits for customers who want a solar configuration from the beginning.
Professional Installation Recommended
Dual automatic swing gates require proper gate construction, actuator geometry, electrical configuration, synchronization, and monitored entrapment protection.
LiftMaster states that external entrapment protection devices must be added as required to meet UL 325 standards. Installers should follow the current LiftMaster installation documentation when determining appropriate photo eyes, safety edges, and other monitored protection devices.
