What is an Exit Loop?

An exit loop is an inductive sensor system installed beneath the driveway surface near the gate. It detects the presence of vehicles by sensing changes in electromagnetic fields when a metal object (like a car) passes over it. When triggered, the exit loop sends a signal to the gate operator, prompting it to open automatically.

Benefits of an Exit Loop

1. Hands-Free Operation: Drivers don’t need to press a button or use a remote to exit, reducing manual effort.

2. Increased Security: The loop ensures only vehicles exiting the property can trigger the gate, preventing unauthorized access.

3. Convenience: Ideal for high-traffic areas where manually opening gates could lead to delays or frustrations.

4. Reduced Wear and Tear: Minimizes unnecessary gate cycles by only opening for departing vehicles.
