Fadini K740.3L COMBI 740 Underground Hydraulic Gate Kit | 175° Rotation

Original price was: £2,652.00.Current price is: £1,856.40. + VAT

Preserve the pure architectural lines of your entranceway without sacrificing commercial-grade power using the Fadini COMBI 740 (K740.3L) Underground Double Gate Automation Kit. This premium, ultra-discreet system features twin oil-hydraulic operators fully concealed below ground inside heavy-gauge galvanized foundation boxes. Specially engineered for wide-access or specialized layouts, the K740.3L variant provides an extended 175° shaft rotation alongside secure double hydraulic locking—eliminating the structural need for unsightly physical gate stops or vulnerable electronic maglocks. Able to effortlessly handle heavy ornamental timber or wrought iron leaves up to 3 meters wide and 700kg per leaf, it is the industry benchmark for high-end residential, multi-user, and intensive commercial perimeters.

  • Extended 175° Rotation Angle: Specially geared for specialized driveways, flush pillar alignments, or deep-set gates requiring extra wide-angle opening clearance.

  • Irreversible Double Hydraulic Locking: Internal hydraulic valves securely lock the gate leaves firmly in both the fully opened and closed positions to resist forced entry.

  • Commercial Oil-Hydraulic Build: Motor pump and mechanical jack are housed in a single, self-lubricating IP67 enclosure for virtually maintenance-free, whisper-quiet performance.

  • Intensive Duty Cycle: Designed to sustain continuous, highly repetitive operations without thermal overheating, making it perfect for shared access points or busy commercial sites.

Description

Fadini K740.3L COMBI 740 Underground Hydraulic Gate Kit | 175° Rotation

Overview

When premier estate aesthetics meet heavy physical load demands, surface-mounted gate rams simply fall short. The Fadini COMBI 740 K740.3L system delivers an entirely invisible automation solution, keeping all mechanical elements completely subterranean. By blending premium, self-lubricating hydraulic technology with heavy-gauge metallurgy, Fadini has built an automation kit that functions seamlessly beneath dirt, ice, and standing water.

The standout feature of the K740.3L configuration is its precision-engineered 175-degree rotational capability. Standard underground kits stop short at 110°, which can severely restrict vehicles on sharp turning circles or clip deep architectural brick pillars. The K740.3L sweeps wide-open and folds almost entirely back against flanking boundary walls. Backed by the field-proven Elpro 27 Control Unit, installers can effortlessly tune opening speeds, pause times, and safety margins to match any unique property perimeter.

Key Features

  • Zero-Footprint Architectural Purity: Keeps the original appearance of ornamental wrought iron or bespoke timber gates completely uncluttered by external arms.

  • Integrated Anti-Crush Safety: Dual precision by-pass pressure valves allow installers to fine-tune thrust limits mechanically, ensuring instant safety stoppage if an obstacle is encountered.

  • Corrosion-Resistant Foundation Housing: Housed inside a 3mm thick, electrolytically galvanized steel foundation box built to resist constant ground moisture and soil acidity.

  • Ergonomic Manual Override: Includes robust left- and right-handed pressed steel emergency release brackets with ergonomic spanners to easily disconnect the hydraulic drive for smooth manual operation during power failures.

Complete Kit Components

  • 2x Fadini COMBI 740 Oil-Hydraulic Operators: (1x Left-Handed, 1x Right-Handed, 175° Rotation, Double Locking).

  • 2x Zinc-Coated Heavy-Gauge Steel Enclosures: Protective foundational underground boxes with drive lids.

  • 1x Elpro 27 Advanced Control Unit: Multi-functional, micro-processor logic command board.

  • 1x Vix 53/2 R Radio Receiver Module: High-security plug-in frequency card (868.19MHz).

  • 2x Vix 53/4 TR Rolling-Code Remote Transmitters: Rugged multi-channel pocket fobs.

  • 1x Tuned Rod Radio Antenna / Aerial: Enhances remote command range across complex masonry walls.

  • 1x Pair of Safety Photocells: Active infrared beams to actively prevent gate closure on crossing vehicles or pedestrians.

Trade Installation & Drainage Tip

Pro Tip: Being fully submersible under an IP67 rating means the motor seals can resist standing water temporarily—however, no underground gate box should ever double as a permanent bucket. Over 90% of premature underground seal failures are caused by stagnant water or chemical freeze-thaw cycles trapped in the box.

The Professional Method: When excavating for the foundation enclosures, always dig an extra 200mm–300mm deeper than required. Pack this base pit tightly with clean gravel or hardcore stone to form a natural soakaway. Most importantly, tap a dedicated 40mm flexible waste pipe directly into the integrated drainage port at the bottom-rear of the galvanized foundation box, channeling it directly into an active storm drain or lower-lying garden soakaway. Keeping the internal box dry guarantees that your Fadini hydraulics will easily outlast a decade of intense seasonal weathering!
