Underground Automation for Swing Gates


Hydraulic and Mechanical Underground operators

This automation is concealed underground, below the gate hinge. We supply and install two types of Underground Automation systems one being Electro-mechanical and the other Electro-hydraulic. The Electro-hydraulic is the top of the range. Hydraulic motors have fewer moving parts than its mechanical equivalent thus expanding the lifespan of the motors. However, they are both high duty quality motors suitable for quality gates and busy entrances.
Suitable for: Ornate Metal and Timber gates, Medium closeboarded (wind effected)

Gate Mounted Pistons for Swing Gates  
Hydraulic and Mechanical Rams

Generally a more economical gate automation system than the underground system. Hydraulic pistons or Electro-mechanical rams are mounted on the back of each gate leaf. This form of automation is particularly popular on wooden five bar farm type gates, although it is equally suited to most timber and wrought iron gate designs.
Various models are available.

Sliding Gates

We supply and install a range of models to cope with both domestic and commercial automatic sliding gates. The motor units are secure and space saving and the system has a lockable release mechanism in the event of a power failure. Our range of motors can operate any gate weighing up to 4 tonnes. The Sliding Gate can be Cantilevered or Tracked.
