The Stanley 1051 Gate Safety Edge Transmitter (Stanley part number 105104) is a wireless interface designed to send a safety-edge signal from a moving gate leaf to a compatible Stanley gate operator or control board. When paired with the matching receiver, it relays activation from a gate edge sensor so the operator can stop and/or reverse on contact, helping meet entrapment protection requirements for residential and commercial sliding or swinging gates. It is commonly used as a replacement part or upgrade where running hard-wired edge cables is impractical, providing a clean, reliable wireless link between the edge and the operator.
Installed directly on the gate, the 1051 connects to a compatible safety edge and transmits an obstruction signal to the receiver mounted at the operator enclosure. Typical setup involves mounting the transmitter enclosure on the moving panel, wiring it to the edge sensor as specified by the system, and programming it to the matching Stanley wireless edge receiver per the operator manual. After installation, the system should be tested regularly in accordance with UL 325 and local codes to verify proper stop/reverse behavior. For best results, confirm compatibility with your specific Stanley gate operator and wireless edge receiver before ordering, and follow all manufacturer instructions for pairing, antenna placement, weatherproofing, and ongoing safety testing.
