Automated gates are powerful machines. Gate Safe is the industry's recognised standard for gate safety, covering force testing, safety edges, photocells and risk assessment. Every gate we install or maintain is checked against it.

Frequently asked questions
Are electric gates safe?
They are when installed and maintained properly. We fit safety edges and photocells, carry out force testing and follow Gate Safe guidance on every gate.
Can you automate my existing gates?
Often, yes, if the gates and posts are in good condition. We'll survey them and advise whether to automate or replace.
How often should electric gates be serviced?
We recommend at least once a year for domestic gates and every six months for busy commercial gates.
Do you supply the gates as well?
Yes. We fabricate and supply gates and railings as well as automating them.
