BFT Gate Motor Steel Rack 30x8x1000mm UAE
BFT Gate Motor Steel Rack 30x8x1000mm – Product Introduction
BFT Gate Motor Steel Rack 30x8x1000mm is a steel drive rack for a compatible automatic sliding gate. The teeth engage the motor pinion so that its rotation moves the gate along its travel. Correctly matched rack sections form a continuous drive connection through the opening and closing cycle.
Each section is 1 metre long, with 30 × 8 × 1000 mm overall dimensions. The listed tooth profile is Module 4 (M4).
This accessory is suitable for new automation work or replacement of worn or damaged rack sections. Selecting by length alone is insufficient: the pinion profile, rack dimensions, mounting arrangement and gate operating requirements must also match.

Rack and Pinion Operation
The motor pinion drives the teeth of the rack fixed along the sliding gate. Alignment must remain consistent as the gate moves, including at the joint between neighbouring sections. Uneven tooth spacing or a misaligned joint can interrupt otherwise smooth travel.
Before fitting a new rack, check that the gate moves freely on its own running gear. Follow the operator instructions for rack clearance and mounting; the rack and motor pinion should not be used to correct a binding gate or unsuitable support arrangement.
Dimensions and Tooth Profile
The specified section dimensions are 30 × 8 × 1000 mm. This version uses Module 4 (M4); match it to the pinion specified for the exact operator.
A similar overall shape does not ensure interchangeability. Compare the existing rack, motor pinion and fixing layout when replacing a section. On a longer gate, use compatible sections throughout the driven length and maintain correct engagement across every joint.
Material and Application
Steel construction provides a rigid mechanical drive for compatible residential, commercial or industrial sliding gates. No numerical gate-weight capacity is specified for this steel rack listing; confirm suitability for the exact gate and operator.
Applications include villa entrances, apartment access, commercial properties, warehouses and replacement work on existing sliding gate systems, subject to compatibility and the relevant load limits.
Section Quantity and Installation
Measure the required driven travel and the operator installation allowance to determine the number of 1 m sections. Do not assume that the clear opening alone provides the complete rack quantity. Check the planned end positions and engagement at both limits.
Position and secure each section using the correct fixing method. Confirm the required brackets, spacers, bolts or other mounting components for the supplied rack; their inclusion is not specified. Check full travel, section joints and limit operation before commissioning.
Replacement and Maintenance
Compare the old rack dimensions and tooth profile before replacement. Inspect the motor pinion and adjacent rack sections for wear so that a new section is not installed against damaged mating parts. After adjustment, test several complete cycles and check that engagement remains consistent.
Keep the gate track and rack area clear of debris, inspect fixings periodically and follow the operator manufacturer’s maintenance instructions. If abnormal noise or uneven movement develops, investigate alignment and mechanical wear before increasing drive force.
Package and Ordering Information
The listing is for one 1 m rack section. Confirm mounting hardware and quantity requirements in your quotation. The sliding gate motor, additional rack sections and installation service are supplied separately unless expressly included.
Supply and Installation Support in the UAE
BFT Automation UAE can assist with product selection and enquiries for Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, Umm Al Quwain and Al Ain. Send the existing equipment model and installation details so compatibility and any additional parts can be checked.
Request a quotation for delivery, fitting, wiring and commissioning as applicable. Service scope, availability and warranty terms should be confirmed for your order; accessory supply alone does not automatically include installation.
