Nice Announces Juno: The Compact Gate Powerhouse for Residential Gate Operations

Empowering the fence industry with a modern, sleek gate operator that combines power and first-to-market features for the modern customer

Carlsbad, Calif., January 14, 2025 – Nice, a global leader in home and building management solutions, proudly announces the launch of Juno, a sleek and powerful gate operator designed to redefine residential gate automation. As the market increasingly demands compact yet feature-rich solutions, Juno offers a breakthrough design that blends style, performance, and ease of use, delivering unparalleled value for both installers and end users.

“Our partners need reliable, easy-to-install solutions that align with modern aesthetic and functional demands,” said Lisa Steinberg, Senior Product Manager at Nice North America. “With Juno, we’re providing a revolutionary product that not only performs exceptionally but also elevates the standard for gate operators in residential applications.”

Juno features a compact and modern design inspired by European aesthetics but tailored for the North American market, challenging the notion that effective gate operators need to be bulky to be powerful. Its 17.2” w x 16”d dimensions can operate up to 800 lb. gates that are 40 ft long. Its industry first, integrated driveway light illuminates the driveway during gate activation, enhancing safety and convenience. The intuitive status indicator provides real-time updates, with green signaling opening, red indicating closure, and rapid flashing alerting users to errors. The photo eye safety device is internally mounted, offering greater reliability and protection compared to traditional externally mounted systems. In the event of power loss, Juno’s manual release ensures uninterrupted access. Additionally, the operator’s built-in slow-down feature minimizes wear and tear, delivering durability and whisper-quiet performance. At its core is the Mercury 310 controller, designed for fast and easy programming, enabling installers to complete setups efficiently, saving time and resources. The Juno system runs on a 12VDC battery with battery charger and MPPT solar controller built into the control board providing flexible AC or solar power options.

Juno was developed to meet the needs of the gate automation industry with a focus on reliability, ease of installation, and long-term performance. Installers can benefit from its quick setup and included accessories, complete with a receiver, two remotes and required safety devices, making it possible to complete more installations and service more customers, while end-users enjoy a stylish, durable, and low-maintenance solution. Juno is designed to meet the demands of luxury clients while challenging the perception that sleek, modern designs compromise functionality.

Juno brings the popular European product to be manufactured in and available to the U.S. market. With innovative design and robust engineering, Juno is poised to capture a significant market share in the slide gate operator segment, offering a competitive edge with its unique features and affordability.

Nice partners can order the Juno gate operator through their local distributor.
