Genie GE-GLA24VPRI Primary Linear Actuator Arm
The Genie GE-GLA24VPRI is a primary linear actuator arm for select Genie GLA24V residential swing gate operator installations. It is used on the primary side of a compatible GLA24V swing gate system where the parts documentation or original equipment confirms GLA24VPRI as the correct replacement actuator arm.
This is a replacement actuator arm, not a complete gate operator kit. It should not be confused with the secondary actuator arm, control box, logic board, motor drive board, power supply, front actuator bracket, rear actuator bracket, push-open bracket, post mount kit, or monitored safety device. Match this part by exact model, primary/secondary position, gate layout, actuator wiring, and Genie documentation before ordering.
Primary Use
- Replacement primary linear actuator arm for select Genie GLA24V swing gate operator installations
- Used on the primary gate leaf or primary actuator side where the GLA24V setup calls for the primary arm
- Service replacement for a damaged, failed, noisy, binding, water-damaged, or worn actuator arm where the original arm matches GLA24VPRI
- Used in single gate installations where the system uses the primary actuator configuration
- Used in dual gate installations only where the specific leaf being repaired is the primary side
Compatible With
Use this actuator arm only where the installed operator documentation confirms GLA24VPRI as the correct primary actuator arm. Do not assume it fits every Genie swing gate operator or every linear actuator gate opener.
- Select Genie GLA24V residential linear actuator swing gate operator installations where the parts documentation lists GLA24VPRI
- Single-leaf GLA24V applications using the primary actuator arm configuration

Important Comparison With Similar Genie Parts
Genie GLA24V parts can look similar by name, but the actuator arms, brackets, control box parts, and complete kits are not interchangeable. Confirm the exact failed part before ordering.
- GE-GLA24VPRI / GLA24VPRI: Primary linear actuator arm for select Genie GLA24V applications.
- GLA24VSEC: Related secondary linear actuator arm. This is not the same as the primary actuator arm and should not be substituted unless Genie documentation confirms the setup.
- 113433.0001.S: Front actuator arm bracket. This is a bracket service part, not the actuator arm.
- 113434.0001.S: Rear actuator arm bracket. This is also a bracket service part, not the actuator arm.
- 113374.0001.S: Push-open bracket for supported push-to-open GLA24V installations. This is not the actuator arm.
- 113431.0001.S: Control box enclosure. This is the control housing and not the actuator arm.
- 113435.0001.S: Post mount kit for the actuator control box. This is not the actuator arm.
- GLA24V single or dual operator kits: Complete operator packages are different from a replacement actuator arm.

Technician Notes
- Confirm whether the failed arm is the primary actuator arm before ordering. Dual gate systems may use a separate secondary actuator arm.
- A slow or stalled gate is not always a bad actuator. Check gate binding, hinge drag, weak batteries, poor charging, voltage drop, damaged brackets, safety faults, and operator error codes before replacing the arm.
- Inspect the front bracket, rear bracket, actuator pins, clevis points, bushings, clips, and gate frame before installing a replacement actuator.
- If the original actuator arm failed from binding or overtravel, replacing the arm without correcting geometry can damage the new part.
- Check whether the installation is pull-to-open or push-to-open. Push-to-open layouts may require the correct push-open bracket and different mounting geometry.
- Do not mix primary and secondary arms without confirming the operator documentation. Primary/secondary assignment can affect wiring, setup, and dual gate operation.
- After replacement, verify manual gate movement, actuator alignment, travel limits, force settings, battery backup, safety devices, warning signs, and full open/close operation.
- If the actuator cable or connector is damaged, confirm whether it is part of the replacement arm package or requires separate service parts before ordering.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm the exact part number is GE-GLA24VPRI or GLA24VPRI.
- Confirm the installed operator is a Genie GLA24V residential linear actuator swing gate operator.
- Confirm the failed actuator is the primary arm, not the secondary arm.
- Confirm whether the gate is single-leaf or dual-leaf and how the primary side is assigned.
- Confirm the gate swings freely by hand and is not binding, sagging, dragging, or wind-loaded beyond the operator rating.
- Inspect the front bracket, rear bracket, push-open bracket if used, actuator pins, gate stops, hinge condition, and gate frame before ordering.
- Confirm that the problem is not caused by weak batteries, bad charging, low voltage, safety input faults, control board issues, wiring damage, or incorrect travel setup.
- Confirm whether brackets, pins, clips, washers, cable, connector, mounting hardware, or instructions are included with the actuator arm.
Professional Advisory
Replacing a linear actuator arm affects gate movement, force, travel limits, primary/secondary timing, and safety setup. If the gate is heavy, wind-loaded, dual-leaf, binding, damaged, or already bending brackets, have the system inspected by a qualified gate operator technician before replacing the actuator arm. Do not force the gate to run with incorrect geometry, damaged brackets, missing pins, bypassed safety devices, weak batteries, or unresolved operator faults. After actuator replacement, monitored photo eyes, safety edges, inherent entrapment protection, limits, force settings, warning signs, battery backup, and manual release operation should be verified.
Product Q&A
What is Genie GE-GLA24VPRI used for?
Genie GE-GLA24VPRI is the primary linear actuator arm for select Genie GLA24V residential swing gate operator installations where the parts documentation confirms GLA24VPRI.
Is GE-GLA24VPRI the same as GLA24VSEC?
No. GE-GLA24VPRI is the primary actuator arm, while GLA24VSEC is the related secondary actuator arm. Do not substitute one for the other unless the Genie documentation confirms the correct setup.
Does this actuator arm fit every Genie swing gate operator?
No. This actuator arm should be matched to select Genie GLA24V linear actuator swing gate operators. Do not assume it fits GRSW24V, GCSW36V, slide gate operators, or non-Genie actuator systems.
Does GE-GLA24VPRI include the brackets and mounting hardware?
Do not assume brackets, pins, clips, washers, cables, connectors, or mounting hardware are included. Treat this as the primary actuator arm only unless the supplier package specifically lists additional parts.
Can a bad actuator arm cause the gate to stop or reverse?
Yes, but the same symptoms can also come from gate binding, weak batteries, bad brackets, voltage drop, safety faults, wiring damage, incorrect limits, or control board issues. The gate and operator should be checked before replacing the arm.
What should I inspect before replacing the primary actuator arm?
Inspect gate movement by hand, hinge condition, front and rear brackets, actuator pins, gate stops, wiring, batteries, safety devices, operator fault codes, and whether the system is single or dual gate before replacing the arm.
Should limits and safety devices be checked after actuator replacement?
Yes. After replacing the actuator arm, verify travel limits, force settings, primary/secondary timing if used, monitored photo eyes, safety edges, warning devices, battery backup, and full open and close operation.
