LiftMaster LA500UL Single Swing Gate Actuator Kit

Single Arm 24V DC Linear Actuator Kit w/ myQ for Residential Swing Gates The LiftMaster LA500UL Single Arm, also sold as the LA500PKGUL, is a 24V DC continuous-duty linear actuator kit built for residential and light commercial single-leaf swing gate applications across UL 325 Class I through IV. The kit includes the primary actuator arm, standard control box with two 12V 7AH batteries, and the LMRRUL monitored retro-reflective photoeye for a complete single-gate installation. The commercial-duty cast aluminum housing and precision-machined all-metal wormgear drive handle up to 1,600 lbs at 8 ft, with capacity adjusting by gate length: 1,200 lbs at 12 ft, 800 lbs at 16 ft, and 600 lbs at 18 ft per the manufacturer capacity chart. The actuator completes a 90° arc in 15 to 17 seconds and is rated for up to 300 cycles per day. Smooth start and stop operation reduces mechanical stress on gate hardware over the operator's service life. The solar-ready design supports off-grid and solar-supplemented installations. Surge suppression provides lightning protection against strikes up to 50 ft away. The LA500UL includes the Security+ 2.0 on-board radio receiver with rolling code technology, compatible with up to 50 remote controls (unlimited with model 811LMX or 813LMX). myQ technology enables remote monitoring and gate control from anywhere via cellular or Wi-Fi connection. For bi-parting installations, the LA500DCS secondary arm is available separately. The operator is Fire Department compliant, opening automatically upon loss of AC power or battery depletion. Anti-tailgate and quick close capabilities, a pre-motion warning alarm, and a manual disconnect are included. HomeLink version 4 and higher is supported.

Gate capacity varies significantly by gate length. Confirm your gate weight and length against the manufacturer capacity chart before ordering. For bi-parting installations, the LA500DCS secondary arm is available separately. Solar installations require the XLSOLARCONTUL large metal control box and two 33Ah batteries, neither of which is included. The heater option is not recommended for solar-powered configurations per the manufacturer. Cut Sheet Installation / User Manual
