700 Series – Dual‑Board Modular Control Cabinet System
Double the control. Double the capability. Fully modular.
The Control 101 700 Series is a high‑capacity, dual‑control‑board cabinet designed for advanced domestic and commercial gate automation systems. Where the 600 Series provides modular flexibility for single‑board installations, the 700 Series expands this into a dual‑board architecture.

Choose your gate motor brand
Pick the brand of control board on the gate, then choose the board. Every cabinet is built to order in Mild Steel or GRP with your choice of mains circuit. No online checkout: request a quote.
Find your 700 Series cabinet by control board
Pick the gate manufacturer, then the control board. Every cabinet is built to order in a Mild Steel or GRP enclosure with your choice of mains circuit, so there's no online checkout: open a cabinet for its order codes, or request a quote.
No control board
Mild Steel or GRP · mains 007 / 008 / 015 / 016 · door plate optional
The dual‑board architecture lets installers run
- Two identical control boards
- Two different manufacturer boards
- A main board + secondary logic board
- A gate board + access control board
- A gate board + safety/expansion board
Enclosures
- Mild Steel: 700H x 500W x 250mmD Wall Mounting Enclosure IP66 RAL7035 (order code EN0013)
- GRP: 747H x 536W x 300mmD Wall Mounting Enclosure IP66 RAL7035 (order code EN0042)
- Mild steel: powder‑coated, high durability, ideal for commercial and outdoor sites
- GRP: lightweight, corrosion‑resistant, UV‑stable, perfect for coastal or damp environments, easy to drill and customise
Mains circuit options (dual 10A rated circuits)
The 700 Series includes two completely independent 10A mains distribution systems — one dedicated to Control Board A and one dedicated to Control Board B. This provides clean, isolated power delivery for dual‑logic, dual‑motor, or mixed‑brand control board installations.
Each 10A circuit includes
- 10A MCB (one per control board)
- Double‑pole isolator (internal or external depending on model)
- 3 × 5mm × 20mm fuse holders per circuit
- Neutral & earth terminal blocks
- Clean, trunked wiring throughout
Shared component
- One 20A, 250V, 50–60Hz EMI filter
- Feeds the cabinet before the circuits split
- Reduces electrical noise
- Protects both control boards and all ancillary equipment
Mains circuit order codes
- External rotary isolator, 10A MCB-main circuit, 6A MCB-lighting circuit - 700-MAINS LOOM-001
- External rotary isolator, 10A MCB-main circuit - 700-MAINS LOOM-002
- Internal Double Pole Isolator, 10A MCB-main circuit, 6A MCB-lighting circuit - 700-MAINS LOOM-003
- Internal Double Pole Isolator, 10A MCB-main circuit - 700-MAINS LOOM-004
Why dual circuits matter
Each control board receives its own protected, isolated, and independently fused power feed, making the 700 Series ideal for:
- Dual‑motor systems
- Mixed‑brand control boards
- Access control + gate control combinations
- High‑end commercial installations
- Systems requiring clean separation of logic and power
What makes the 700 Series truly modular
All connections from both control boards are brought down to the Input/Output DIN rail at the bottom of the cabinet. This rail becomes the central hub for Control Board A, Control Board B, ancillary equipment, field wiring and future upgrades.
How the modular system works
- Each board has its own dedicated terminal section
- Ancillary equipment (PSUs, relays, detectors, etc.) is wired into the same rail
- Field wiring connects into the rail, not the boards
- Engineers can isolate, test, and modify wiring without disturbing the boards
Installer benefits
- Clean separation of logic between Board A and Board B
- Rapid fault‑finding — every connection is accessible and labelled
- Easier commissioning — test each board independently
- Future‑proof — upgrade boards or add accessories without rewiring
- Consistent layout across all 700 Series cabinets
Door plate option
Add a door‑mounted equipment plate for low‑profile devices such as receivers, timers, relays, small PSUs and logic modules. This keeps the main mounting area clear for the dual control boards.
Dual control board selection
- Customer‑Supplied: use your preferred manufacturer boards (FAAC, BFT, NICE, Beninca, Fadini, etc.)
- Control 101‑Supplied: we install both boards for you. Your cabinet arrives ready for wiring and commissioning.
