Words from Senior Application Engineer Anthony Geato | Top of Page |
“The GPX-SL25 is GTO, Inc.'s answer for basic sliding gates. Sliding gates desperately needed a reliable opener. Many openers before the GPX-SL25 gave a performance that was shaky at best. They were prone to jams and the gates they were pulling were frequently knocked off their tracks by obstructions. Almost all sliding gate openers came at a high price including frequent maintenance visits from gate opener installation companies. GTO, Inc. knew there had to be a better way. GTO, Inc. unveiled their GPX-SL25 Gate Openers. They were completely unique from anything on the market. They are easy to install, reliable, flexible to alteration, resistant to obstacles, and best of all - affordable. These openers quickly proved themselves in the gate opener market to be a superior opener. Now GPX-SL25's are used on all small-scale slide gate openers operations. By small-scale I mean small businesses, residential homes, and other areas with medium amounts of traffic. When the user can install and modify their gate opening system themselves it makes it realistic for a small business to have a gate opener. They have the choice to modify the amount of security and access others will have to their property; and they won't have to pay a fortune to get it done. This doesn't mean you will be alone on purchasing and installation. Gate Crafters is your free installation expert. Why would anyone pay someone to come install a gate opener and then pay him or her again to come out and fix it every time it breaks because they didn't install it correctly in the first place? We don't think anyone should pay for support and we made it so easy to install the gate system yourself. We answer all questions, both big and small before you make any purchase. Most all answer can be found on our easy to use website, but if you still have concerns we encourage you to give us a call.
