LiftMaster LA500UL Dual Swing Gate Operator Kit

Dual Swing Gate Operator Kit with Smart Control and Battery Backup

The LiftMaster LA500UL Dual Swing Gate Operator Kit combines the LA500UL primary arm kit (with control board) and the LA500DCS secondary arm, delivering a complete solution for dual-leaf swing gate systems. Built to manage gates up to 18 feet or 1,600 pounds per leaf, this system is ideal for residential entries, commercial access points, and high-cycle environments requiring reliable, secure automation.

The system features integrated MyQ® technology for smart remote access, battery backup for continued operation during outages, and is solar-ready for off-grid applications.

This kit includes one control panel and uses a wired master-to-secondary cable connection. It does not support wireless communication between arms. For wireless dual-gate setups, two separate single-arm kits are required.
