Automatic Driveway Gates for Homes and Villas.
Open and close your gate from your phone or your car — without getting out. Every Open Bear motor runs on DC24V safe voltage, operates at or below 60 dB, and ships as complete kit with all hardware included.
Gate Operators Built for Residential Use.
From loading dock sliding gates to high-traffic barrier access — every model is rated for the demands of a working site.
Swing Gate Operators
Four models covering every swing gate application — from light pedestrian gates to heavy 6-metre entrance doors weighing 1,200 kg. Side-mounted, floor-mounted, top-mounted, and heavy-duty variants available.
Side-Mounted Swing Gate Operator
Handles swing gates up to 1.5 metres and 200 kg with the fastest angular speed in the range at 69.7°/s. Bluetooth and WiFi built in — open from a phone without any additional hardware. CE certified.
Sliding Gate Operators
For gates that travel along the fence line. Handles gate weights up to 1,800 kg, runs from -35°C to 70°C, and ships as a complete kit — motor, controller, remotes, and all hardware in one box.
Your Gate. Your Smartphone. One Tap.
Every Open Bear residential model ships with remotes included. The side-mounted swing operator adds Bluetooth and WiFi on top — so you can open from your phone, your car, or anywhere in the world without buying anything extra.
The side-mounted swing operator connects via Bluetooth and WiFi — open your gate from your phone before you reach the driveway. No extra hub, no separate app to buy.
Every model ships with remote controls included. All remotes use encrypted signal — no one can clone your frequency and open your gate.
Set your gate to close automatically after every entry. The motor checks for obstacles before closing — it will not shut on a car, a child, or a pet still in the opening.
Safety Features Built Into Every Motor.
DC24V safe voltage, automatic obstacle reversal, and manual release are built into every Open Bear residential model — not tiered by price point. The entry-level motor and the top-spec model carry the same safety platform.
DC24V Safe Voltage
Every Open Bear motor runs on a DC24V servo motor — a permanent magnet synchronous motor that operates at 24 volts direct current, well below the threshold where electric shock becomes a risk. Touch the gate or the motor while it moves. It is safe.
Obstacle Detection
The motor stops and reverses the moment it detects resistance — a car door, a child, a pet. It does not close on anything in its path.
Anti-Crush Speed Control
Gate speed is set low enough that contact does not cause injury. The motor slows further as the gate approaches the closed position — full-speed closing only happens in open air.
Manual Release
Every motor has a manual release. If the power goes out, you open the gate by hand — no tools, no delay, no being locked in or out.
WHY OPEN BEAR
Six Reasons Buyers Choose Open Bear.
WHAT OUR BUYERS SAY
Trusted by Gate Opener Buyers Across North America and Beyond.
"I was worried about safety with kids around. The DC24V motor runs completely safe to touch — even mid-cycle. Setup was straightforward and everything I needed came in the box. It has been running without a single issue for eight months."
"We manage 14 gated properties across two provinces. Open Bear replaced three different brands we were using — one supplier, one documentation standard, and the same DC24V system across every site. Maintenance is much simpler now."
"The spec sheets are in plain English and the wiring diagrams are clear. I have installed six units across residential and commercial projects. Not one callback. The -35°C to 70°C range means I spec the same model regardless of location."
