Description
FAAC 770 180 Degree Opening Kit
The FAAC 770 180 Degree Opening Kit is designed specifically for use with the FAAC 770 underground swing gate operator. This accessory enables the gate leaf to achieve an extended opening angle of up to approximately 180 degrees, depending on installation geometry and structural clearances.
In certain driveway configurations, maximum gate clearance is essential. The FAAC 770 180 Degree Opening Kit allows the gate to open fully back toward the boundary wall or fence line, significantly increasing usable entry width. This is particularly beneficial for narrow driveways, angled vehicle approaches, or properties requiring unrestricted access.
Because underground operators depend on precise pivot geometry and foundation alignment, extending the opening angle requires carefully engineered mechanical modification. This kit adjusts the operator’s internal travel configuration while maintaining controlled hydraulic performance throughout the opening cycle.
Achievable opening angles depend on hinge placement, pillar depth, foundation box position, and available side clearance. Before installation, installers should assess structural limitations to confirm that full 180 degree travel can be safely achieved without obstruction or mechanical interference.
When installed correctly, the FAAC 770 180 Degree Opening Kit maintains stable movement and predictable stopping behaviour at the extended opening limit. It allows greater flexibility in architectural design while preserving the reliability and durability of the FAAC 770 system.
