Home Automation
Gate automation that just works, every single time
Swing or sliding, timber or steel, flat or steep driveway. We size the motor to the gate, wire it safely and set it up so it opens for you and nobody else.
Gate Automation, done properly
A gate motor that's too small for the leaf, or a safety beam that was never fitted, is how gates end up stuck half open in the rain. We start by weighing up the gate itself: its weight, length, hinge condition and the slope of the drive. Then we match the motor and controls to it.
From there it's your call how you want to open it: a remote on the key ring, a keypad on the pillar, a video intercom so you can let the courier in from work, or your phone as you turn into the street. It all comes from one system, set up and tested by us.

Why it's different with us
The details that make it last
Sized to the gate
Motor torque, gearing and duty cycle matched to the leaf weight and how often it's used. No more straining, overheating motors.
Safe by default
Photocells and obstacle detection fitted and set up on every install. Kids, pets and car bonnets come first.
Blackout-proof
Battery backup keeps the gate running through outages, and solar takes power out of the equation entirely.
Open it your way
Remotes, keypad codes for the cleaner, tags for the kids, the app for you. Each one can be added or revoked on its own.

Questions
Gate Automation FAQs
Can you automate the gate I already have?
Usually, yes. If the gate swings or slides freely and the posts and hinges are sound, we can motorise it. If it drags or sags, we'll fix that first. A motor on a bad gate just fails faster.
What happens to my gate in a blackout?
With a battery backup fitted, it keeps working for a number of cycles on battery. Without one, every motor we install has a manual key release so you can open it by hand.
Can I open the gate from my phone?
Yes. We can add a smart controller so you can open, close and check the gate from an app, give visitors temporary access, and get a notification if it's left open.
