Hi Stuart,
The main difference between the two systems is the 24V kits have an option for a battery backup, which in the event of a power failure, will grant access to your property still. You will also want to take note of whether the system you purchase has encoders built into the motors. This is available on both 230V and 24V systems in the CAME range and basically ensures a much better obstacle detection and force reversal than motors without encoders. However, if you have a fully cladded wooden gate, this may not be the best option for having encoders in the motors. As you would notice, a fully cladded gate would act much as a sail does and wind could prove a nuisance in trying to operate your gates as normal. The force sensing technology would just keep reversing it.
In this scenario I would use the standard motors, but apply safety edges to any hazardous areas where the gate could crush or shear when operating.
We supply both and can offer the best discounts on these systems. If you want any further information, please contact us on 0845 054 5070.

I have just joined the forum, and was hoping to have a few questions answered please.
What is the difference between a 230v kit and a 24v kit that came make?
Which is preferred fitment and why?
Type of cables I need to run from the house for the following fitted:
Video intercom system with one handset for the house and one for the garage,
Magnetic gate lock.
Regards,
Stuart.
