Column Installation Information
The GTO/PRO 2000 and GTO/PRO 2200 can be mounted on any size column, but the gate hinge cannot be more than 12” from the mounting surface of the post bracket. The edge of the post bracket must be aligned with the edge of the column face where the hinges are mounted. If these conditions cannot be met, and you do not want to pocket the column, call GTO’s Service Department for alternative solutions..
In column applications, the rear mount of the operator will be attached directly to the gate bracket without the use of the post pivot brackets. Use ten 1/2” washers (provided) as spacers between the rear mount and the gate bracket, 5 on top and 5 on bottom (see illustration below). Align washers, rear mount holes and gate bracket holes, then secure with 1/2" x
33/4" bolt and lock nut. When tightening the 1/2" nut, leave it just loose enough for the arm to swing freely.
