OAK BROOK, Ill., July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- LiftMaster®, the leading brand of professionally installed access control solutions, has expanded its line of smart industrial gate operators with the IHSL24UL Heavy-Duty, Continuous-Duty Slide Gate Operator for moving the largest and heaviest gates. Designed to meet the continuous demands of busy manufacturing, transportation, municipality, utility and warehouse environments, including Class III and IV applications, LiftMaster's new gate operator supports sliding gates up to 5,500 pounds in weight and 90 feet in length.

Rugged and efficient, the LiftMaster Heavy-Duty Industrial Slide Gate Operator is built to perform flawlessly in extreme environments. The Heavy-Duty Industrial Slide Gate Operator is enclosed in a steel, weatherproof cabinet that protects the motor from the elements and unauthorized access, and brushless DC technology provides reliable always-on operation so that facility managers can trust that it will perform 24/7. LiftMaster's new gate operator is also solar ready with battery back-up ensuring continuous operation even during a power outage.

In addition to reliable performance, the LiftMaster Heavy-Duty Industrial Slide Gate Operator is built to last with features that prevent wear and tear on gate hardware including a brushless motor, a custom gearbox with smooth facing on the gear teeth and slow-start and slow-stop functionality. The design intentionally fits the same installation footprint as the LiftMaster SL585UL and SL595 Heavy Duty Industrial Slide Gate Operators, offering a unique retro-fit solution that cuts down on replacement costs and installation time.
