There are several benefits of a motorised gate. These include convenience, security and value. Those with limited mobility can also benefit from this technology, as it opens and closes the gate for them. They are also easy to install and require little maintenance.
Security
One of the best ways to secure your home or business is to install a motorised gate. Not only do they make it easier to enter and exit your home, but they also eliminate the risk of forgetting to close the gate. However, before installing an automatic gate, it is important to have the gate installed by a professional such as DM Security Systems, who knows how to install them properly.

Convenience
A motorised gate opens and closes automatically using a remote control and electric motors. It can be controlled using a transmitter attached to a car, and you can use this to open or close the gate. Different systems are available, which require expert installation.
Value
A motorised gate offers numerous advantages for homeowners, including increased curb appeal and an increased sense of security. You can choose a classic or contemporary style to instantly increase the value of your property. Electric gates are also a good option for deterring burglars by remaining closed.
Safety
While installing a motorised gate is a great convenience, it is equally important to ensure that it is working properly. One of the reasons for this is to prevent a person from becoming trapped in the gate, which can cause severe or fatal injuries. These gates are often equipped with vehicle detection loops that can detect vehicles and stop them before they hit the gate. These gates can be adjusted to meet different preferences, so you can choose how much traffic is allowed to pass.
Sliding gates take less energy
Compared to swinging gates, motorised sliding gates use far less energy. The average gate cycle lasts around 20 seconds and consumes just 0.2p in energy per cycle. The lower energy consumption enables you to save money on your energy bill.
Installation
There are a number of important steps that need to be taken in the installation of a motorised gate. The first step is to ensure that the gate is level and that the bolts are in the right positions. A level surface is crucial as it will enable the gate to roll smoothly over the pinion. The next step is to install the motor unit, which should be placed below the guide bracket.
