Question
Will a battery backup keep a villa gate working during a power cut in JVT?
Yes, a battery backup lets the gate motor keep opening and closing for several cycles during a power cut. It is a small unit that sits with the control board and switches over automatically when the mains drops. Every property differs, so the final answer depends on a close look at the door or gate itself.
How many cycles you get depends on the gate weight, the motor and the battery condition, so do not expect it to run all day. Batteries age, so test the backup now and then and replace it when it no longer holds charge.
We can fit a backup and explain the manual release. See gate motors for the motor options.
