Sliding Gate Motor Suppliers in Egypt — What to Confirm Before You Order
Sourcing a sliding gate motor in Egypt is mostly a matter of confirming four things before you commit: the capacity, what actually ships with it, how long it takes to reach your governorate, and how you pay. This page walks through each one and what to have ready.

🔧 Find the right sliding gate motor for your gateFive quick questions — capacity is sized at about double the gate weight
1 / 5
1️⃣ Roughly how much does the gate leaf weigh?If unsure, estimate from the gate size and metal thickness
2️⃣ How wide is the gate opening?
3️⃣ How tall is the gate?
4️⃣ Where is the gate used?
5️⃣ How often does the gate open each day?
✅ Recommended: 800 kg sliding gate motor — capacity is sized at roughly double the gate weight.
✅ Recommended: 1000 kg sliding gate motor — capacity is sized at roughly double the gate weight.
✅ Recommended: 1600 kg sliding gate motor — capacity is sized at roughly double the gate weight.
✅ Recommended: 2000 kg sliding gate motor — capacity is sized at roughly double the gate weight.
✅ Recommended: 2500 kg sliding gate motor — capacity is sized at roughly double the gate weight.
✅ Recommended: 4000 kg sliding gate motor — capacity is sized at roughly double the gate weight.
✅ A gate heavier than 2000 kg needs an individual review — send the dimensions and the sales team will confirm.
✅ No problem — send the gate width and metal thickness and the sales team will work the weight out with you.
🏭 Industrial use raises the load: for factories and workshops a class above this recommendation is preferred because of the heavy duty cycle.
Weight is the main input, but width and cycle rate matter too — the sales team confirms before any order.
Confirming a few details up front removes most ordering problems
1. Confirm the capacity, not just the model name
Capacity is quoted in kilograms and should be around double the weight of your gate leaf. A model name on its own does not tell you whether it suits your gate; the rating does. If you are unsure of the weight, the width, height and metal thickness are enough for it to be worked out with you.
A sliding gate needs more than the operator. Ask explicitly whether the quote covers the toothed rack, the remote or key switch, and the photocells, or whether those are separate lines. The rack in particular is calculated from your gate travel, so it cannot be assumed.
Supply only. We supply the equipment and ship it to you. Arranging the work at your gate is on your side, which is worth knowing before you compare offers.
3. Confirm delivery to your governorate

Cairo and Giza
Same day
All other governorates
3 to 5 working days
Delivery time depends on the destination governorate
Why the rack is always quoted separately
It is the one line that cannot be standardised. Two gates with identical operators can need very different rack quantities, because the rack has to run the full distance the gate travels rather than the width of the leaf alone. A quote that bundles a fixed rack length is guessing at your gate.
Rack is quoted from your gate travel, never as a fixed bundle
4. Confirm the payment method
Cash on delivery, bank transfer and InstaPay are all accepted. Agreeing this before the order is placed avoids a delay at the delivery stage.
The faster the sales team has these, the shorter the exchange. All four fit in a single message.
Gate weight — or width, height and metal thickness.
Gate travel — how far it moves to be fully open, for the rack.
Power supply — 220 V, or three-phase if the site has it.
Governorate — so delivery can be confirmed in the same reply.
Gate travel decides the rack quantity, so it belongs in the first message
Parts supplied separately
Not every order is a full kit. Operators, toothed rack, control boards, remotes, key switches and photocells are all supplied on their own, provided the parts are matched to what you already have. For a control board the motor model has to be known first, because boards follow the supply type of the motor.
Individual parts are supplied as long as they match your system
Frequently asked questions
What should I confirm before ordering a sliding gate motor?Four things: the capacity in kilograms, exactly which parts ship with it, the delivery time to your governorate, and the payment method. Confirming these avoids almost every ordering problem.
Do you install the gate motor?No. We supply the equipment only. The parts are shipped to you and the work is arranged on your side.
What information does the sales team need from me?Gate weight or its dimensions, the gate travel for the rack quantity, the power supply at the site, and how often the gate opens each day.
Which payment methods are accepted?Cash on delivery, bank transfer or InstaPay.
How long does delivery take?Cairo and Giza are delivered same day. Other governorates take 3 to 5 working days.
Can I order just the rack or just the board?Yes, parts are supplied separately. For a board the motor model has to be known first, because boards are matched to the supply type of the motor.
Supply and delivery. We supply the equipment only. Cairo and Giza are delivered same day, other governorates in 3 to 5 working days. Payment is cash on delivery, bank transfer or InstaPay.
