Quick Answers
The common questions we get asked before a gate automation install. For a fast estimate, send a photo of the gate and your postcode via our form.
How long does a gate automation installation take?
Most automation installs are completed in a single day. If trenching for power, safety edges, or access control wiring is required, we’ll confirm the specific timeframe during your site survey.
Can you automate my existing gates?
Usually, yes — provided the gates are structurally sound and hung correctly. We’ll assess weight, hinge points, and alignment at survey, then recommend the right operator and safety setup.
What type of motor do I need — sliding, underground, or arms?
It depends on the gate type and space. Sliding motors suit wider openings. Underground motors keep hardware discreet. Above-ground arms are a robust, service-friendly option for retrofit installs.
What safety features are required for electric gates?
Safety typically includes photocells and safety edges, plus correct force settings and safe stop zones. We install and commission all systems to meet UK HSE regulations and best practice.
Can I use my phone, keypad, or intercom to open the gates?
Yes — we can integrate GSM phone control, keypads, fobs, and video intercoms depending on signal and your preferred access. We’ll recommend the most reliable hardware at survey.
Do you repair or replace existing automation systems?
Yes. If your current system is unreliable, we can replace failed motors, upgrade safety devices, and modernise control panels for a more dependable setup.
