Automating Existing Gates

If you like your existing gates but would prefer powered operation, Electragate can assess whether they are suitable for automation. We help customers across Lancashire, Merseyside and Cheshire explore options for their entrance.

Can my gates be automated?

Suitability depends on the condition and construction of the gates, their weight and dimensions, the hinges or running gear, supporting posts and available space. A site assessment is needed before a suitable system can be recommended.

What needs to be checked?

We consider how the entrance is used, the gate movement and clearances, driveway levels, power and cable routes, and access-control requirements. The assessment also needs to consider the safety of the complete powered gate system.

Keep, adapt or replace?

Some gates may be suitable to retain, while others need mechanical work, changes to their supports or replacement. We will discuss the options identified during the assessment before a proposal is agreed.

How would you like to use your entrance?

Tell us who uses the gates and how visitors or deliveries should gain access. We can discuss intercoms and access control alongside the automation proposal.

Start with a few details

Send an enquiry with your postcode, photographs of the gates and supports, approximate opening width, and a brief description of what you would like. Call 07870 586307 if you would prefer to discuss it.
