Sliding Gates

  • Perfect where space is limited or where driveways are sloped.

  • Ideal for restricted or upward-sloping entrances

  • Uses less space than swing gates—full driveway remains usable

  • Offers increased security and resistance to forced entry

  • Motors available for domestic and industrial use (up to 4000kg):

Gate Types We Automate

Swing Gates

We can automate existing swing gates (subject to a site inspection to confirm they meet strength and spec requirements) or work with you and a gate fabricator to install a brand-new system.

  • Suitable for homes, farms & businesses

  • Compatible with steel, timber, or composite gates

  • Can open inward or outward depending on space

Pedestrian Access Gates

We also automate pedestrian gates—ideal for homes, schools, or business entrances.

  • Allows secure entry without opening the full gate

  • Operated via keypad, intercom, or phone access

  • Can be integrated with CCTV or smart access systems

  • Great for existing side gates or custom pedestrian entrances

Heavy-Duty Timber Gates

Our timber gates are engineered specifically for automation—built to handle motor strain and stay strong over time.

  • Made from high-grade redwood or hardwoods

  • Minimum finished thickness of 65mm

  • Optional finishes and custom sizing available

  • Clear basecoat applied; further treatment optional by customer

We’ve seen poorly made gates from other suppliers fail quickly under automation. Our gates are built to last—and look good while doing it.
