Nice B-FAB5024-DKIT Heavy-Duty Underground Swing Gate Automation Kit (24V DC) for Double Gates up to 5m / 900kg
Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more". See below to give you some idea on angles of Megapixel HD Cameras:
| Lens in mm | Approx Viewing Angle (degrees) | Ideal Distance (metres) | Typical usage/notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.8 | 106 | <6 | For seeing as much of the immediate area as possible such as above a doorway/low down/garage soffits (edges can appear slightly warped/distorted) - clearly "zoomed out" |
| 3.6/4 | 83-90 | <12 | A great general purpose option giving great coverage still in the corner of a room or higher up on second floor soffits with less distortion - more of a natural "zoom" |
| 6 | 56 | 6-20 | Narrows down the angle and zooms in to look past the immediate area a little to gain more detail - down a driveway for example from higher up |
| 12 | 24 | 20+ | Zooms in significantly more to look at a gate, entrance or adjascent building |
| 16 | 19 | 24+ | As above but more so |
The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution, frame rate settings, and whether you have H.265 encoding enabled or not to save space (We advise turning it on to double the capacity shown below with ease).
Finally, you can often make your storage space last a lot longer by enabling motion-detected recording rather than continuous, especially if there are long periods of no activity (to perhaps double or more these figures again).

Days of storage provided by 1TB per camera (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (50% motion- 15 frames per second) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 44 | 11 | 36 |
| 2 | 22 | 5 | 18 |
| 3 | 17 | 4 | 14 |
| 4 | 11 | 3 | 9 |
| 5 | 9 | 2 | 8 |
| 6 | 8 | 2 | 6 |
| 8 (4K) | 5 | 1 | 4 |
| 12 | 4 | 0.5 | 3 |
As a rule of thumb, we recommend 2 Terabytes for a 4 x 4/5MP HD camera setup, as this should give you approx 2 weeks using H.265 @ 20fps and that is on continuous, not motion-detected recording.
(You may only require the full 25 frames per second on certain cameras if things are fast-moving - ie above a till)

Nice B-FAB5024-DKIT Heavy-Duty Underground Swing Gate Automation Kit (24V DC) for Double Gates up to 5m / 900kg
The Nice B-FAB5024-DKIT (also known as Big-FAB kit) is one of the most powerful underground swing gate automation systems in the Nice range, designed for extremely heavy and large gate installations where both strength and aesthetics are required. It uses 24V DC electromechanical gear motors installed in underground foundation boxes, allowing the entire system to remain completely hidden while maintaining a clean architectural appearance. The motors are equipped with magnetic encoders and mechanical limit switches to ensure precise movement, accurate stopping positions, and reliable obstacle detection. Built for intensive and semi-industrial use, the system can handle gate leaves up to 5 metres in length and up to 900kg per leaf, making it suitable for estates, industrial entrances, apartment complexes, and high-traffic properties.
KEY FEATURES:
- Heavy-duty underground swing gate automation kit
- Suitable for double gates up to 5m per leaf
- Supports gate weight up to 900kg per leaf
- 24V DC electromechanical underground motor system
- Magnetic encoder for precise positioning control
- Mechanical limit switches for reliable stopping
- Fully concealed underground installation
- BlueBUS technology for simplified wiring and accessories
- MC824H advanced control unit
- Built-in obstacle detection and safety reversal
- Semi-intensive duty cycle (~45 cycles/hour)
- Optional 360° opening capability (installation dependent)
