Gate automation involves installing a motorized system to open and close a gate without manual effort. This system includes the opener, control panel, and sensors. Gate automation enhances convenience, security, and accessibility. It can be integrated with access control systems like keypads, intercoms, or mobile apps, allowing you to control gate access remotely from a distance.

A keypad entry system allows authorized individuals to access a property by entering a passcode on a keypad installed near the gate. This system offers a secure, convenient alternative to traditional keys and can be integrated with automatic gates for easy entry. Keypad systems can also be used alongside other access control measures like remote controls or smartphone apps.

Sliding gates open horizontally by moving along a track, making them ideal for properties with limited space for a gate to swing open. Swing gates, on the other hand, open inward or outward like a traditional door. Swing gates may require more space to operate but are often used for larger driveways and offer a more classic aesthetic.

Yes, most automatic gates can be manually operated in the event of a power outage or malfunction. Many gate openers include a manual release mechanism that allows the gate to be opened manually without the motor. However, it's important to ensure the gate is locked or secured after manual operation to prevent unauthorized entry.
