What is a 12V Control Board?

A 12V control board is the main electronic component inside your gate system. It controls how your motor operates, connects to remotes, and manages safety features like auto-stop and obstacle detection.

If your motor is no longer responding correctly, a faulty control board is often the cause.

How to Choose the Right Control Board?

Choosing the correct control board is important to ensure compatibility and reliable operation.  Here's what to check:

  • Confirm your system used 12V (not 24V Control Board or 240V Control Board)
  • Check your remote and accessories will be supported by the control board
  • Check whether board offers the features you require such as battery backup, advanced programming, external light outputs.
