Entry Systems
We offer a range of different intercoms to provide access control. GSM systems are by far the most popular choice, allowing visitors and deliveries to call through directly to your mobile so that you can provide access wherever you are in the world. We also install video intercoms that can give you visibility of who is at the entrance before you choose to let them in.
Accessories
We can help you determine the appropriate accessories for your system based on your requirements. From simple fobs and entry buttons that allow access to all visitors, to keypads that require a code for entry, timers that can restrict access during certain hours and induction loops that will automatically open the gates whenever a vehicle comes within proximity, we have a range of options to suit any need.
Types Of Automation
-
Underground gate automation is a discreet and aesthetically pleasing solution for automating gates. This system is installed beneath the ground, hidden from view, and operates by using linear actuators or hydraulic mechanisms to open and close gates. Underground automation is a popular choice for those who want a sleek and unobtrusive look for their property, as it keeps the gate mechanisms concealed and allows for seamless integration with various gate styles.
-
Linear gate automation, also known as ram or piston gate automation, is a straightforward and reliable method for automation that is fitted directly onto the back of a gate. It employs a linear actuator, a mechanical device that extends and retracts in a straight line, to push or pull the gate as it opens and closes. This type of automation is favoured for its simplicity and efficiency in controlling gate movement.
-
Articulated gate automation, often used for swing gates, utilises a set of articulated arms or joints to operate the gate. Articulated motors are an excellent choice for gates with limited space or those that require a more complex opening pattern. They offer flexibility and adaptability for various gate configurations.
-
Sliding gate automation is a popular choice for large and heavy gates that move horizontally along a track. This system uses a motor and a gear mechanism to push the gate to the side for opening and pull it back to close. Sliding gate automation is known for its robustness, security, and ease of use. It's often used in industrial, commercial, and residential settings, where there is limited space or a need for a reliable and secure entrance solution.
Bollards
Automatic bollards serve various key purposes, primarily centred around enhanced security and controlled vehicle access. These bollards are particularly valuable in high-security environments, rising when security is paramount and lowering to permit authorised vehicles. A strong deterrent that can keep your property safe; bollards are the ideal solution for helping to prevent ram-raiding and can be fitted either independently of, or in conjunction with, a gate system.
Barriers
Automatic barriers, find installation in various contexts, primarily for access control and security. They are commonly used to regulate and restrict vehicle entry to secured sites like car parks, gated communities, corporate premises, and industrial facilities. In addition to enhancing security, they efficiently manage traffic flow at entry and exit points.

How Do We Choose Our Products?
Garage Doors

Available in a range of different materials, styles and colours, our garage doors offer an aesthetic that can enhance the look of your property alongside convenience, functionality and security.
Safety Devices
Ensuring that the systems we implement are safe is of paramount importance, and as such we offer a comprehensive array of safety products that ensure that any and all risks are mitigated. Laser curtains and photocells will stop the gate’s movement if anything passes across them, helping to prevent pedestrians and vehicles being impacted when moving through a gate. Safety edges and finger guards prevent people getting caught between a moving gate and a static object. Furthermore, many systems are modified to stop upon obstacle detection through either an encoder or amperometric sensory technology.
