swing gates
A timeless option for automating an entry, and what comes to mind first for many when they consider electric gates.
By automating your existing or new swing gates, you can open and close them in near any way you can think of, without leaving your vehicle or manually operating the gates.
Above ground motors
The most cost effective way to automate reliably.
Above-ground swing gate motors offer a reliable and versatile way to automate. Mounted directly to the gate and its supporting posts, these systems provide smooth, controlled operation while keeping installation straightforward and maintenance accessible.
For a clean, understated finish, underground swing gate motors provide powerful automation while keeping the mechanism hidden beneath the ground. With no visible motor arms, they preserve the original look of your gates, making them an ideal choice for properties where appearance matters just as much as performance.
With this option alone, we conduct a mandatory percolation test near where the motors would sit before quoting. We do this to make sure your soil has suitable drainage, and is crucial to ensuring longevity. As North Yorkshire has large areas with heavy clay soil, part of the increase in cost is accounted for by establishing soakaways, drainage pumps, or other methods. Even if the soil at ground level drains well, underground can be a different story.
In cases where drainage can’t be guaranteed, we would ask you to consider above ground automation as an alternative. Trust us on this one, it cuts down the life of the motors dramatically if it’s not established.
