Description
The Nice RB500HS is the Robus 500 fast: a fast sliding gate motor from Nice that moves the gate at 0.44 m per second, about 9 seconds for a 4 m gate. It is a 500 kg sliding gate motor for gates up to 8 m long, and we sell it as a complete Nice Robus kit with remotes, a receiver, photocells, a push button and 4 m of rack.
Speed is the point of this fast sliding gate motor. Where a standard motor keeps a car waiting in the street, the Robus 500 fast opens the gate before you have finished pulling up.
Why choose a fast sliding gate motor?
On a busy road, every second a car waits outside an opening gate is a second of risk and frustration. A fast sliding gate motor shortens that wait.
| Gate opening | Robus 500 fast at 0.44 m/s | Nice RB1000 at 0.28 m/s |
|---|---|---|
| 3 m | About 7 seconds | About 11 seconds |
| 4 m | About 9 seconds | About 14 seconds |
| 6 m | About 14 seconds | About 21 seconds |
The times are worked out from the speeds in the Nice manual, before the soft start and slow down at each end, so real times are a little longer. A fast sliding gate motor like this suits villas on main roads, gates that open and close many times a day, and families who want the gate open by the time the car arrives.

Robus 500 fast technical data from the Nice manual
| Data | Value |

| Maximum gate weight | 500 kg |
| Maximum gate length | 8 m |
| Supply | 230V, 2.2 A |
| Power | 460 W |
| Speed | 0.44 m per second |
| Peak torque | 13 Nm, a force of 360 N |

The Robus 500 fast trades force for speed. It moves about 57 percent faster than the RB1000, with less torque, which is why Nice limits it to 500 kg.
Is a 500 kg sliding gate motor right for your gate?
| Your gate | Our advice |
|---|---|
| A light aluminium or steel villa gate up to 400 kg | This 500 kg sliding gate motor is a good match, with margin |
| A gate from 400 to 500 kg | Works within the rating, but check the wheels and track are free running |
| A gate over 500 kg | Choose a stronger motor such as the Nice RB1000 |
| A gate over 8 m long | Choose a motor rated for longer gates |
Fast motors are less forgiving of a heavy or stiff gate. If your gate is close to 500 kg, or the track is worn, a 500 kg sliding gate motor running at speed will wear sooner. We weigh up the gate before we recommend it.
Oman heat, sand and salt: the Nice severity index
The Nice manual estimates the life of the Robus range between 20,000 and 250,000 cycles, depending on a severity index. Heat above 40°C, dust and sand, salinity, and manoeuvres stopped by photocells all raise that index. Most sites in Oman score on several of these, so we keep this 500 kg sliding gate motor well inside its limits, clean the rack and track at every service, and service coastal sites more often.

How we install the Nice Robus kit
- We cast a concrete base with the foundation plate, level and in line with the gate.
- We fix the motor and set the pinion 1 to 2 mm below the rack, as Nice requires, so the gate weight never rests on the motor.
- We fix the nylon rack along the gate and set the open and close limit switch brackets.
- We fit the photocells, the push button and the OXI receiver, and pair both remotes.
- We run the learning cycle, set the force and the automatic closing time, and test the photocells while the gate closes.
We strongly suggest adding a flashing light with a fast sliding gate motor, so people nearby see that the gate is moving.
