The FAAC 490111 180° Opening Kit is specifically engineered to extend the standard opening range of the FAAC 770 in-ground swing gate operator from 110° to an expansive 180°, delivering superior access flexibility. The upgrade is:
Durable and high-quality – Built to last in various environments.
Easy to install – Designed for hassle-free setup with minimal downtime.
Compatible exclusively with FAAC 770 swing gate operators.
Comprehensive – Some vendors include a technical instruction manual or require positive stops for safe operation.
Available with warranties – Typical warranties include 1 year from U.S. sellers and 24 months from EU distributors.
Disconnect power before working on your FAAC 770 operator.
To comply with UL?325 safety standards, ensure the installation of external positive stops if needed.
Confirm Compatibility: Verify that your unit is indeed a FAAC 770 in-ground operator.
Install Kit Components according to the manufacturer’s technical instructions (often provided or downloadable).
Adjust Stop Settings as required, setting limits that safely accommodate the new 180° travel.
Test Operation: Check full open, full close, and that safety interlocks and stops function properly.
Finalize Setup: Reconnect safety detectors and verify that manual and automatic reversals function as intended.
Save original parts, in case you wish to revert to the 110° swing later.
If you're in the EU, the Dieffematic option offers a 24-month warranty—worth considering.
Ensure periodic maintenance, inspecting mechanical stops, hinges, and clearances for wear or misalignment.
