- Large, 24V Motor - It is one of the largest swing gate motors available for any residential estate gate opener. It is capable of handling driveway security gates up to 550 lbs, which more than many heavily ornamented electric gates weigh.
- Control Board, Easy Read Diagnostics - The LED light diagnostic on the control board permits easy diagnostics of problems or missing connections. This allows efficient repair and swift continuation of normal electric gate operation.
- Soft Start/Soft Stop Soft start/soft stop is a feature in which the control board, during the set up process, learns where the opening and closing points are for the swing of the gate. Then during normal operation the gate operator automatically slows the motion of the gate to smoothly meet with the gates destination point. This reduces stress on the gate and operator for extended functionality.
- Bi-part Latch - Designed to allow one gate leaf to begin opening or closing independently for those gates that have overlapping leaves.
- Adjustable Closing Timer Set your gate to close between 0 and 120 seconds after reaching the full open position.
- Electronic Limit Switches - Set the limit switches with just the push of a button for accurate, easy setup.
- On Board Radio Receiver - It is compatible with a number of wireless remotes and allows operation of a number of devices with one remote - such as the garage door and the gate opener.
- Input Terminals - For convenient addition of accessories requiring like loops, sensing devices and controlling devices.
- Quick, Safe and Secure Manual Release - The LA-400 operator comes with a manual release key that can be used should the power fail and the backup battery is not charged. This ensures that the driveway gate can be opened without damaging or disconnecting any components.
- Highest Level of Safety - This operator is designed with separate force adjustments for obstructions. If the gate meets an obstruction while it is opening it will reverse to close, and if it is closing it will reverse to open. Additionally, the LA-400 is UL 325 Listed.

"The Liftmaster LA-400 is an exciting innovation from Liftmaster. Liftmaster / Chamberlain has been making garage door openers for years. If you've bought a house with a garage door opener in the past 10-15 years, or had one installed, most likely it is a Liftmaster / Chamberlain opener. It is exciting to see this manufacturer branch out and extend its dependable product line.
What we love about Liftmaster's design is that they jumped right in. Rather than easing in with a simpler design, they created a really heavy duty unit that is easy for consumers to use. The 24V motor is incredible, as power is really important for gate openers. It is what allows the gate operator to function properly use after use. Lower power motors will burn out over time, but this 24V motor will offer no such problems.
Even though this is an easy to install professional gate opener, GateCrafters.com is still available for any installation or technical support the installer may need. Gate Crafters has years of experience with gate opener installations and their accessories, and is readily available 7 days a week, 9am to 9pm Eastern Time just by calling our number: 1 800 537-4283.
GateCrafters.com is dedicated to getting the right gate opener for your gate. As more gate openers become available and new innovations develop for gate opener accessories, the selection can become overwhelming to customers. We are the experts in our field so we can guide our customers through decision-making for the perfect gate opener for their situation. Additionally, we have extensive amounts of educational material on our website to help you become an informed consumer. We also have our own testing area to check manufacturer claims against real world applications; it also allows us to train on-site so our technicians are able to make informed recommendations and provide educated problem solving. As a result, we really are able to offer truly exceptional service for the amateur, experienced, and dedicated do-it-yourselfer."
