Automated Gates
We design and install automated gates for residential and commercial properties. Our systems combine security features with aesthetic flexibility, offering options like sliding, swing, and bi-folding mechanisms. Each installation uses components from trusted manufacturers like BFT and Nice, ensuring long-term reliability. Our engineers program systems for seamless integration with existing security infrastructure.
Commercial Barriers
Our commercial barriers provide controlled access solutions for businesses and public spaces. These high-security installations include vehicle barriers, bollards, and turnstiles with optional keypad or intercom integration. Ideal for car parks and restricted zones, they meet health and safety regulations while maintaining operational efficiency for staff and visitors.
Custom Gate Design
We create made-to-measure gates tailored to specific design requirements. Using timber, steel, or composite materials, our fabrication team produces unique solutions from concept to installation. Digital renderings are provided for approval before manufacturing begins, ensuring clients visualise the final product that complements their property's architecture.
Maintenance Packages
Our preventative maintenance contracts ensure ongoing safety and functionality of automated gate systems. Regular inspections cover mechanical components, safety sensors, and electrical systems. Packages include twice-yearly visits for force testing and compliance checks, reducing breakdown risks while maintaining manufacturer warranty conditions for long-term investment protection.
Emergency Repairs
We offer urgent repair services for malfunctioning automated gates outside standard operating hours. Our engineers carry common replacement parts to resolve issues on first visit where possible. Emergency call-outs address safety concerns and access issues for both residential and commercial clients, with response times prioritised based on service contract status.
