Centurion D6 Smart Gate Motor Installation in Hoog-en-Droog, Paarl

A recent Centurion D6 Smart gate motor installation was completed in Hoog-en-Droog, Paarl, for a delivery gate serving a building with an existing access-control system.

The new D6 Smart was installed together with an Accentronix 2-button cellular intercom and a Sherlotronic long-range receiver. The receiver allows the building’s existing access-control system to integrate with the new gate motor, connecting the new gate automation with the access system already in use.

The project included the installation and setup of the D6 Smart gate motor, integration of the access-control equipment and testing of the completed system.

The Centurion D6 Smart was installed on the building’s delivery gate to provide automated access while working with the existing access-control requirements of the property.

The installation was carried out with the existing gate and access requirements in mind, rather than treating the gate motor as a standalone system. This allowed the new automation equipment to be integrated with the access-control equipment already being used by the building.


Integrating the New Gate Motor With Existing Access Control

One of the important parts of this project was integrating the new D6 Smart with the building’s existing access-control system.

A Sherlotronic long-range receiver was installed to allow the existing access-control equipment to work with the new gate motor. This meant that the building could retain its existing access-control setup while connecting it to the newly installed gate automation.

For installations at buildings, complexes and other properties with existing access control, the gate motor is only one part of the overall system. The motor, receiver, intercom and access-control equipment need to work together correctly.


Sherlotronic Long-Range Receiver Installation

The Sherlotronic long-range receiver formed part of the integration between the new D6 Smart gate motor and the building’s existing access-control system.

Using a receiver suitable for the existing system helps avoid unnecessarily replacing access-control equipment that is already in use and functioning.

The result is a new automated gate motor working alongside the property’s established access-control equipment.


Accentronix 2-Button Cellular Intercom

An Accentronix 2-button cellular intercom was also installed as part of the project.

The intercom provides an additional method of managing access to the property and forms part of the overall gate automation and access-control installation.

Combining the intercom with the D6 Smart gate motor and the Sherlotronic receiver allowed the different parts of the access system to work together as one installation.

Once the D6 Smart, intercom and receiver installation had been completed, the system was tested to ensure that the gate motor and access-control equipment operated correctly together.

The completed installation provides automated operation of the delivery gate while allowing the building’s existing access-control system to be integrated with the new gate motor.


D6 Smart Gate Motor Installation and Access Control in Paarl

This Hoog-en-Droog project is an example of a gate motor installation where the requirements extend beyond simply fitting a new motor.

The installation combined:

  • Centurion D6 Smart gate motor

  • Accentronix 2-button cellular intercom

  • Sherlotronic long-range receiver

  • Existing building access-control system

  • Delivery-gate automation

  • System setup and testing

For properties in Paarl with existing access control, intercoms or other gate-entry equipment, the correct approach is to consider how the new gate motor will integrate with the equipment already installed.
