8 Important Factors to Consider When Choosing an Automatic Gate Installer:
- Is there product backup and support from the installer?
- Do they offer onsite warranty repairs
- Are they qualified in electronic systems?
- Is the auto gate system installed correctly?
- Do they meet all manufacturer’s specifications or will your warranty be void due to incorrect installation?
- How well do they know the gate automation industry?
- If so, do they understand what setup and brand is best for the customers requirements?
- Are they knowledgeable about the latest technology in gate motors ensuring smooth and reliable operation?
If you have an existing gate and would like it automated, the factors to consider are:
- Is it a single gate or a pair?
- How wide and heavy is the gate?
- Are your gate posts sufficiently strong enough?
- Do the gates swing freely?
Solar powered automatic gate
Sometimes the best option for rural locations where mains or low voltage power may not be feasable.
The importance of battery backup with gate automation installs:
- Firstly, battery backup does not come standard with most gate automation systems
- Therefore, we recommend that a battery backup is fitted at time of install
- Battery backup is important especially if you are in an area that experiences regular power outages
- However a back up battery will give you some run through time in the event of a power outage
- Keeping in mind, battery backup will last depending on the amount of gate operations and the battery capacity
- Most importantly customer’s need to know how to manually override the opener
- Manual overide is important when there is a prolonged power outage or you want to keep the gate open or closed indefinitely
- Given these points it is important to weigh up costs against practicality and convenience
Automatic gates are ideal for:
- Add extra security on your property
- Decide who can enter your property through access control
- Extra security confining children and pets within your property
- Improving your property investment
- The convenience of opening and closing your gate in the comfort of your vehicle
- Easily enter and exit your driveway when towing
