SOMMER TWIST XL – German engineering for large gate leaves
A 24V DC operator with published upper limits of 7 m leaf width and 1100 kg. Selection must follow the permitted length-versus-weight relationship and site loading.
SOMMER TWIST XL provides automatic opening and closing for a correctly matched swing gate installation. Choose the configuration according to the individual leaf dimensions, hinge position, opening direction and expected number of daily cycles.
SOMMER TWIST XL is part of the SOMMER swing gate automation range and is intended for correctly sized hinged gates. For a UAE installation, the choice of motor depends on the length and mass of each gate leaf, hinge offset, pillar clearance, desired opening angle, wind exposure and frequency of use. A suitable control board and safety devices are important for reliable operation.

SOMMER TWIST XL Kit Includes
The motor or kit configuration must be confirmed when ordering. A complete installation may require a matched control unit, receiver, remotes, safety devices and mounting hardware. These accessories are not assumed to be included unless itemised in the quotation.
SOMMER TWIST XL Applications

Suitable projects may include private villas, residential compounds and compatible commercial entrances. A site assessment should check wind exposure, gate infill, hinge condition and clear movement space.
SOMMER TWIST XL Supply & Installation Services
The gate should move freely by hand before fitting the drive. The installer must check bracket or foundation geometry, mechanical stops, cable routes and the required electrical supply, then set travel and force parameters according to the supplied manual.
Remote receivers, photocells, warning lights, intercom relays, keypads and GSM or WiFi interfaces must match the selected controller. Test the safety inputs and manual release, where fitted, before handing over the system. Optional smart or backup equipment should be confirmed for the exact controller version.
