Description
FAAC Sliding Gate Stop Magnets – 63001035
The FAAC Sliding Gate Stop Magnets – 63001035 are a genuine FAAC replacement magnetic limit kit designed for compatible FAAC sliding gate operators.
Mounted to the gate’s gear rack, the magnets identify the fully open and fully closed positions of the sliding gate. As the gate approaches each end of its travel, the corresponding magnet passes the operator’s magnetic limit sensor, allowing the control system to recognise that the programmed end position has been reached.
Supplied as a pair for the opening and closing limits, the 63001035 kit is suitable for replacing lost, damaged or deteriorated magnetic stops on a range of popular FAAC sliding gate operators.
🧲 Magnetic Open & Close Limits
FAAC sliding gate operators use magnetic limit detection to identify the ends of the gate’s normal travel.
Two magnetic stops are installed on the gate rack:
- One for the fully open position
- One for the fully closed position
As each magnet approaches the operator, the internal magnetic limit sensor detects it and signals the control system that the corresponding end of travel has been reached.
This provides reliable non-contact detection without requiring a conventional mechanical microswitch to be physically struck by the gate.
🚪 Controls the Gate Stop Positions
Correct positioning of the magnets determines where the sliding gate finishes its opening and closing movement.
During installation or adjustment, the magnets are positioned along the gear rack so the operator detects them at the appropriate point.
This allows the installer to establish the correct:
- Fully open position
- Fully closed position
- Gate travel
- End-of-travel detection
The magnets should be adjusted carefully to ensure the gate stops in the required position without excessive overtravel.
⚙️ Rack-Mounted Design
The magnetic stops are designed to mount directly to the sliding gate’s gear rack using their corresponding brackets.
This allows each magnet to be positioned independently along the rack according to the required opening and closing positions.
Once correctly positioned, the brackets are securely fastened so the magnets remain in the correct location during normal gate operation.
🔄 Non-Contact Limit Detection
Because the system operates magnetically, the limit sensor does not need to be physically struck by a mechanical stop.
The magnet simply passes through the sensing area of the operator’s magnetic limit system.
This provides:
- Reliable end-of-travel detection
- No physical contact with the sensor
- Simple limit adjustment
- Accurate positioning
- Reduced mechanical wear at the limit sensor
- Straightforward replacement and servicing
🔧 Genuine FAAC Replacement Part
Part number 63001035 is a genuine FAAC replacement component designed for compatible FAAC sliding gate operators.
It is an ideal replacement where the original magnets or mounting brackets have:
- Been lost
- Been damaged
- Become loose
- Deteriorated
- Been removed with the original rack
- Been damaged during gate repairs
- Become unsuitable following rack replacement
Using the correct magnetic stops ensures compatibility with the operator’s magnetic limit detection system.
🏠 Residential & Commercial Applications
The 63001035 magnetic stops are used across several FAAC sliding gate operator platforms suitable for residential, commercial and industrial applications.
Depending on the connected operator, applications can include:
- Residential sliding gates
- Apartment entrances
- Commercial sliding gates
- Factory entrances
- Warehouse gates
- Commercial vehicle entrances
- Industrial sliding gates
- Car parks
- Secure access points
🔩 Ideal When Replacing the Gate Rack
The magnetic stops are mounted to the gate’s gear rack, so they should also be checked whenever an existing sliding gate rack is replaced.
If a new rack is being installed, the existing limit magnets may need to be transferred to the new rack or replaced with a new compatible set.
After changing the rack or magnets, the open and close positions should be checked and adjusted before returning the gate to normal automatic operation.
🛠️ Simple Position Adjustment
The mounting brackets allow the magnets to be repositioned along the gear rack during commissioning.
This makes it possible to fine-tune the point at which the operator detects each limit.
After adjustment, the gate should be tested through complete opening and closing cycles to confirm:
- Correct open stopping position
- Correct closed stopping position
- Reliable magnetic detection
- Appropriate clearance at each end of travel
- Correct overall gate operation
🔄 Replacement for Earlier FAAC Part Numbers
FAAC part number 63001035 is also documented as a replacement for earlier magnetic limit components including:
- FAAC 63000355
- FAAC 390773
When replacing an older component, the operator model and existing limit system should still be checked before ordering.
📦 What’s Included
The FAAC 63001035 kit is supplied as a pair of magnetic limit stops with mounting components for the opening and closing positions.
The kit typically includes:
- 2 × Magnetic limit magnets
- 2 × Mounting brackets / housings
- Associated mounting components
The operator’s internal magnetic sensor is not the same component as these rack-mounted magnets and is not included unless specifically stated.

⚠️ Important – Magnets vs Limit Sensor
The 63001035 kit contains the rack-mounted magnetic stops used to trigger the operator’s limit system.
It should not be confused with the magnetic sensor located within the sliding gate operator.
If the gate is failing to recognise either its open or closed limit, the fault may be caused by:
- Missing or damaged limit magnet
- Incorrect magnet position
- Incorrect magnet orientation
- Damaged mounting bracket
- Excessive distance between the magnet and sensor
- Faulty internal magnetic limit sensor
- Wiring or control-board fault
The existing system should be inspected before ordering replacement parts if the cause of the fault is unknown.
⚠️ Please Note
This listing is for the FAAC Sliding Gate Stop Magnets – Part Number 63001035.
The complete sliding gate operator, internal magnetic limit sensor and gear rack are not included.
The opening and closing magnets must be correctly positioned and securely mounted to the gate rack. After installation, both limits should be tested through complete gate cycles before returning the automation system to normal use.
Do not rely on the physical end stops of the gate to establish the normal automatic stopping position.
