Automatic Gate Installation, Automation & Service
New custom-fabricated gates when needed, plus automation, upgrades, and dependable service for residential and commercial automatic gates from initial concept to a complete, operational system.
End-to-End Gate & Operator Solutions
We support your automatic gate project from start to finish — including new-gate fabrication when appropriate — as well as operator installation, access-control setup, and service for many existing gates and operators. Whether you need a single residential driveway gate or a complex commercial entry point, we provide integrated solutions tailored to your site and equipment.
Gate Types We Install & Automate
We install and automate several gate configurations to suit different property layouts, traffic volumes, and aesthetic preferences, including both new gates and many existing gate structures.
Slide Gates
Practical for properties with limited driveway depth or sloped terrain. Slide gates travel horizontally along a guided path such as a ground track or supported rail, making them well-suited for high-traffic commercial entrances and narrow residential lots where a straight, sliding motion is preferred.
Swing Gates
A classic choice for residential driveways and estate entrances. Single or bi-parting swing gates open inward or outward and pair well with decorative ironwork, privacy infill, and other custom fabrication details.
Cantilever Gates
Cantilever gates are supported from the side and slide without a ground track running across the opening. The gate panel rolls or glides beside the driveway, keeping the drive surface clear and making this style a practical option for uneven surfaces, unpaved driveways, or areas where a ground track would be difficult to maintain.
Custom Gate Fabrication
When a new gate is needed, we fabricate it around your property and project requirements. We work with you on design, material selection, and sizing before a single piece of steel is cut, and we can also automate many existing gates where the structure is suitable.
Our Fabrication Process for New Gates
- On-site consultation and measurement for the gate opening
- Design review and material selection for the new gate
- Steel or iron fabrication to the agreed specifications
- Finish, powder coat, or paint as specified
- Delivery and professional installation of the new gate
- Operator mounting and wiring when automation is included
- Access control setup and testing when applicable
Material & Style Options for Fabricated Gates
For new gates, we fabricate from welded steel tube, ornamental iron, and galvanized materials suited for outdoor exposure. Styles range from simple flat-top panels to decorative picket and spear designs, with options to coordinate with your fence or architectural style.
- Welded steel tube frames
- Ornamental iron picket and spear designs
- Flat-panel, open, and privacy-infill options
- Powder coat or field-applied paint finishes
- Custom sizing for non-standard openings and layouts
Gate Operators
The right operator keeps your gate moving through its daily cycles. We select and install operators matched to your gate type, weight, and expected usage, and we can often service or replace operators on many existing gate systems.
Slide & Cantilever Operators
Chain-drive and rack-and-pinion operators for sliding and cantilever gates. We size the motor to the gate’s weight and anticipated cycle count to promote reliable operation for the intended use.
Swing Gate Operators
Linear actuator and articulating-arm operators for single and bi-parting swing gates. Adjustable open/close speed and limit settings allow practical tuning for each installation where supported by the equipment.
Backup Power
Many operators we install support battery backup, allowing the gate to continue operating for a period during a power outage when the feature is available. We review backup-power options for your selected equipment during the consultation.
Access Control
A gate is most effective when paired with an access system that helps control who can enter and how they do so. We install and program a range of entry and exit control devices to match the practical security and convenience requirements of your property, using equipment such as keypads, remotes, intercoms, credential readers, vehicle detection, and exit devices, as well as telephone entry, cellular entry, Wi‑Fi/internet-connected entry, and smartphone/app-based access systems that, where supported by compatible equipment and connectivity, can allow remote visitor communication, gate control, and access management.
Keypads
PIN-entry keypads allow authorized users to open the gate without a remote. We program single or multiple access codes and configure basic timing and lockout settings during installation where supported.
Remote Controls & Receivers
We supply and program radio remote controls and install compatible receivers on the operator. Multiple remotes can be added to a single system so households, offices, or facilities can issue remotes to their regular drivers.
Intercoms
Audio and video intercom systems let property owners speak with visitors and operate the gate from inside the home or office when used with compatible equipment. We install gate-side intercom stations and connect them to interior receivers or supported smart-device interfaces.
Vehicle Detection
In-ground loop detectors and similar vehicle-detection devices sense a vehicle’s presence and can be set to trigger the gate to open on exit or hold open while a vehicle is in the detection zone, helping reduce the chance of the gate moving while a vehicle is underneath it.
Card & Credential Readers
Proximity card, key fob, and other credential readers provide a controlled method of entry that can be suited to commercial properties, multi-tenant facilities, and managed parking areas.
Exit Devices
Push-button exit stations, exit loops, and free-exit wand sensors allow vehicles and pedestrians to leave without a credential, helping keep traffic moving on the exit side while the gate operates.
Safety Devices
Automatic gate systems require appropriate safety devices to help reduce the risk of injury and property damage. We install safety components that can detect people, vehicles, or obstructions and connect to the operator’s controls for responsive operation where supported by the equipment.
Photoelectric Sensors
Beam sensors mounted at the gate opening detect an object or person crossing the beam and can signal the operator to stop or reverse movement when properly configured.
Edge & Contact Sensors
Resistive edge sensors attached to the gate’s leading or closing edges detect contact with a person, vehicle, or object and can signal the operator to stop or reverse gate travel.
Warning Signage & Lights
Visible warning signs and optional flashing lights alert pedestrians and drivers that the gate is in motion, helping make the gate’s operation more noticeable to people nearby.
Troubleshooting & Repair
We service and provide preventive maintenance for many automatic gate systems regardless of who originally installed them. Our technicians diagnose mechanical, electrical, and access-control issues and complete the repairs needed to restore gate operation where parts and equipment support repair.
Common Issues We Address
- Gate not opening or closing completely
- Operator motor failure, intermittent operation, or unusual noise
- Remote, keypad, or other access devices not responding
- Gate reversing or stopping unexpectedly
- Broken welds, damaged hinges, or bent gate frames
- Track, wheel, or roller damage on slide and cantilever-style gates
- Wiring faults, sensor issues, and control-board problems
Operator Replacements
When an existing operator is beyond repair or no longer suited to the gate’s weight or usage, we can source and install a replacement unit, set up compatible access devices, and test the system’s basic functions before leaving the site.
Structural Repairs
Gate frames that have been damaged by vehicle impact or weathering can often be repaired or reinforced in the field. When repair is not practical or cost-effective, we can fabricate a matching or updated replacement panel for the opening.
