## What the CENTURION D5-Evo Sliding Motor is

The D5-Evo is a sliding gate motor rated for gates up to 500kg, with a built-in control board rather than a separate control box, and standard safety features to stop or reverse the gate if it meets an obstruction. It suits a typical home or small commercial sliding gate rather than heavy industrial gates, which usually need a higher-capacity motor like the CENTURION D10 or a FAAC industrial unit.

Installation

## Installing the CENTURION D5-Evo Sliding Motor

Gate motor installation involves mounting the motor, wiring it to a power supply, fitting safety sensors and setting the travel limits correctly. Qyvea installs the D5-Evo as part of our [Automatic Gate Installation](https://qyvea.co.ke/automatic-gates) service -- see our [behind-the-scenes quality checks](https://qyvea.co.ke/projects#gate-motor-feature) on a gate motor kit before it ever reaches a client site.

Support

## Maintenance & support

Gate motors need periodic checks of the chain or rack, safety sensor alignment and control board condition, especially with daily use. Qyvea offers ongoing [automatic gate maintenance](https://qyvea.co.ke/automatic-gate-maintenance-kenya), whether the motor was installed by us or someone else.

FAQ

## CENTURION D5-Evo Sliding Motor questions

What size gate does the D5-Evo suit?

It's rated for sliding gates up to 500kg, which covers most home and small commercial gates. Heavier or industrial gates typically need a higher-capacity motor such as the CENTURION D10 or a FAAC industrial unit.

Does the D5-Evo need a separate control box?

No -- the control board is built into the motor unit itself, which simplifies installation compared to motors requiring a separate controller.

What happens if the gate hits an obstruction?

The motor includes obstruction-detection safety features that stop or reverse the gate, though correct installation of additional safety beams is also recommended for full compliance and safety.

Does Qyvea install this motor, or only sell it?

Both. Buy it alone for your own installer, or have Qyvea supply and install it as part of a full automatic gate project.

What does gate motor installation cost in Kenya?

Cost depends on the gate itself, whether new safety sensors or wiring are needed, and site accessibility. Qyvea provides a free site survey and itemised quote alongside the motor price.
