Advantages of Gate Automation
Automated gates deliver several key benefits that make them an ideal choice for both security and convenience:
- Improved Security and Access Control: Automated systems restrict unauthorised entry, offering peace of mind for property owners and managers. They can be integrated with intercoms, CCTV, keypads, proximity readers, and remote transmitters for enhanced protection.
- Convenience at Your Fingertips: Open or close your gate without leaving your vehicle or property. Operation can be controlled via handheld remotes, wireless keypads, smartphone apps, or timed automation for regular access hours.
- Professional Appearance: Electric gates instantly elevate a property’s appearance, offering a refined and professional finish suitable for homes, offices, retail parks, and warehouses.
- Weather-Resistant Operation: Designed to perform reliably in all weather conditions, automated systems are ideal for properties exposed to heavy rain, wind, or snow, eliminating the need for manual operation.
- Safety and Compliance: Many systems feature automatic obstacle detection, photocells, and pressure-sensitive safety edges to comply with UK safety regulations and prevent accidents.
First Fence's line of Swing Gate Operators are systems that are specifically designed to open or close a gate in a controlled and secure way. They are ideal for a variety of settings, including industrial and residential and enhance security and accessibility.
Sliding gate motors are designed to automate the closing and opening of sliding gates and enhance security. Control panels are also available for use with these motors.
First Fence offers a wide range of automation accessories, including transmitters, receivers, aerials, reader posts and safety edge components, to enhance your automated gate experience.
