The Juno Residential Slide Gate Operator is a sleek, pad-mounted gate operator designed for residential slide gate applications while delivering the performance of a light commercial system. Built for smooth, reliable gate movement, the Juno uses a motor, gearbox, and output sprocket to drive a chain attached to the sliding gate, making it an excellent solution for residential driveways, private roads, farms, and estate entrances. It's proof that good things can come in compact packages.
Programmed and controlled through the integrated Mercury 310 controller, the Juno is designed for simple setup, efficient operation, and dependable day-to-day performance. The operator runs on a 12VDC battery system with an internal battery charger, while the control board includes MPPT solar controller technology for solar-ready installations. Whether you're plugging into utility power or letting the sun do some of the heavy lifting, the Juno is ready to get to work.
Capable of moving slide gates up to 800 lbs. and 40 ft. long, the Juno provides impressive power for a wide range of residential gate openings. Soft-start and soft-stop operation help create smooth, quiet gate movement while reducing wear on mechanical components. Automatic gate position sensing allows the gate to slow down as it approaches the fully open or closed position, helping ensure controlled operation. Magnetic targets installed at each end of the drive chain establish precise open and close limits, because guessing where the gate should stop is generally not a great long-term strategy.
Designed with both appearance and functionality in mind, the Juno features a modern molded UV-stabilized enclosure, integrated photo eye, driveway light, red/green status indicator, and a lockable front-mounted manual release for added convenience and security. Battery-powered operation also helps keep the gate functioning during power outages when properly configured, providing peace of mind when the lights go out. We recommend the Juno for residential driveway gates, farm and ranch entrances, estate gates, and other applications where reliable automated access and a clean, modern appearance are equally important.

Ordering Notes:
Please verify gate weight, gate length, power requirements, accessory needs, and installation requirements before ordering. The Juno 310 AC model includes one 7Ah battery, while the Juno 310 Solar model includes two 7Ah batteries for 14Ah total. Solar installations require a 12V-rated solar panel, and depending on accessories, gate cycles per day, and available sunlight, additional battery capacity may be needed.
