Need automatic light rail lifters

[JBs_Reef]

Getting ready for a move and new tank build. I am looking for components to raise and lower a light rail that will be mounted above the new tank.

Looking for something switch operated so I can control up, down, stop. The aluminum light rail will have 5-6 radions mounted on it so not super heavy.

Thanks in advance for the help.

I have a lot of flexibility so the lifting mechanism could pull from above or slide along the wall.

I've looked at doing this for years.... just haven't pulled the trigger.... You can use an actuator or an electronic curtain/blind motor.

Will a blind motor hold the weight or do you buy them rated for different weights

Linear actuator is your best bet, the same thing used to open gates etc..
