GateGuardX on Proteco gates.

The short answer: if your Proteco gate has a motor and opens on a signal, the way a keypad or remote does, and nearly all do, GateGuardX works with it. No rebuild, no replacement, installed in about half a day.

About Proteco

Proteco is an Italian gate automation manufacturer headquartered in Castagnito, in the Piedmont region of northwest Italy. The company designs and manufactures operators for swing and sliding gates, garage doors, rolling shutters and road barriers, together with control units and safety accessories, covering both residential and commercial installations. Its products are distributed in over 60 countries worldwide.

(In the gate trade, an “operator” is simply the motor that opens the gate.)

Proteco makes sliding, swing, barrier and overhead gates, and the same simple rule covers them all.

Common Proteco models include Aster, Leader, Mover, Shark. Whether it works is determined by what's on the control board, not the model name, so send two photos and we confirm yours specifically.

How the integration works

It triggers your gate motor, it doesn't replace it.

  • We wire to the same terminals your remotes use, often inside the motor housing.
  • Your keypad, intercom, and remotes keep working as fallbacks.
  • Your gate's own safety features (photo-eyes, safety edges, auto-reverse, to the UL 325 standard) stay fully in charge of the moving gate. We never bypass a safety device.
  • No digging, no reconstruction, fully reversible.

Proteco compatibility FAQ

Is Proteco a supported brand?

Yes, Proteco is on our verified-brands list. Whether any specific gate works still comes down to what's on its control board, so we confirm yours from two photos, within 48 hours.

Do I need to replace my Proteco gate or gate motor?

No. GateGuardX installs on the gate you already have, a small controller tells your existing gate motor to open, exactly like a keypad or remote does.

What if I can't find a dry-contact input?

Most control boards have one, often labeled for a keypad, intercom, or remote. If yours doesn't, a small relay add-on provides it. Send a photo of the board and we'll point to the exact terminals.

Will it conflict with my keypad, intercom, or remotes?

No, GateGuardX adds a trigger alongside what you already have. Keep your keypad, intercom, and remotes as fallbacks; the plate reader simply becomes the primary way in.
