Description
Fadini K740.2L COMBI 740 Underground Hydraulic Gate Kit | VIX 53 Edition
Overview
Automating large close-boarded timber or heavy ornamental iron gates introduces high structural risks: the intense wind leverage and dynamic weight can cause wide gate spans to slam violently, causing cracks in masonry pillars and tearing hinges over time. The Fadini COMBI 740 K740.2L system solves this problem mechanically. By combining an industrial-grade hydraulic pump with built-in bidirectional deceleration valves, it handles the dynamic momentum of substantial gate leaves, gliding them down into a whisper-quiet, controlled rest at either end of the travel cycle.
This premium edition completely isolates all mechanical components subterranean within heavy-gauge, 3mm thick galvanized steel foundation enclosures. To safeguard your digital access, the VIX 53 radio receiver modules integrate directly into the Elpro 27 control board. Every time a remote button is pressed, the encryption algorithms seamlessly change the transmitted digital code. This completely frustrates electronic interceptors or “code-grabbing” hardware used by modern thieves, locking down your perimeter with military-grade efficiency.
Key Features
-
Completely Invisible Architecture: Keeps the pristine face of high-end timber or bespoke iron gates completely clean and clear of unsightly external arms or surface rams.
-
Adjustable Thrust By-Pass Valves: Built-in high and low-pressure by-pass valves allow installers to fine-tune physical thrust limits mechanically, meeting strict European safety requirements.
-
Reinforced Foundation Enclosures: Housed inside an ultra-thick, electrolytically galvanized steel foundation box designed to withstand permanent soil acidity and heavy vehicular tyre loads over the lid.
-
Heavy Pressed Manual Release: Includes robust emergency release assemblies with bespoke spanners, allowing easy manual disengagement of the hydraulic loop during complete power failures.

Trade Installation & Capacity Matrix Warning
Pro Tip: Due to the power output of the Combi 740 hydraulic system, skipping the gate weight-to-width ratio assessment can cause severe damage to your gate hinges or the internal drive splines if the gate meets a solid obstruction.
The Structural Law: While the maximum raw lifting weight of the 740 jack is 700kg, this max capacity is strictly rated for gate spans up to 1.5 to 2.0 meters wide. For an extended 4.0-meter gate leaf, your maximum safe weight limit drops to 400kg per leaf to manage the massive rotational inertia. If you are fitting this kit to solid close-boarded wooden gates over 3.0 meters in width, we always recommend installing an external electric lock (such as a mechanical latch lock or maglock) to support the center joint against high-torque wind deflection.
