Frequently Asked Questions

What types of FAAC automation products are available through Aero NZ?

As part of the FAAC Technologies group, we supply and support a wide range of FAAC automation products in New Zealand. Our range includes swing and sliding gate operators, automatic door systems, access control equipment, safety devices, barriers and automation accessories. We also supply replacement components to help maintain existing FAAC systems.

Are FAAC gate motors suitable for residential and commercial properties?

Yes. The FAAC range includes automation options for residential driveways through to larger commercial and industrial entrances. The right motor will depend on factors such as gate size, weight, design and how frequently it will operate.

What is the difference between hydraulic and electromechanical FAAC gate operators?

Hydraulic operators use fluid pressure to move the gate and are often chosen for demanding or frequently used entrances. Electromechanical operators use gears and an electric motor, with different models available for residential, commercial and industrial applications.

Can FAAC systems automate existing swing or sliding gates?

Many existing gates can be automated with a suitable FAAC operator, provided the gate itself is in good condition and moves correctly. An installer can assess the gate, available space and operating requirements before recommending an appropriate system.

Does FAAC offer automation solutions for automatic and industrial doors?

Yes. FAAC manufactures more than gate motors, with products available for pedestrian doors, industrial doors, shutters and other automated entrances. This allows different access points around a property to be managed using established automation technology.

What FAAC access control options can be integrated with gate automation?

FAAC offers equipment such as proximity readers, keypads, long-range vehicle readers and smart connectivity products. These can be incorporated into compatible automation systems to provide more controlled and convenient access.

Are replacement parts available for FAAC automation systems in New Zealand?

Aero NZ stocks FAAC products and replacement components to support the ongoing maintenance of installed systems. Having access to suitable parts can help repair or service an automation system without unnecessarily replacing the complete setup.

How do I choose the right FAAC operator for a high-use entrance?

Consider the gate's weight, dimensions, opening style and expected number of daily movements. High-use commercial or industrial entrances generally require equipment designed for more demanding duty cycles, so professional system selection is important.
