Professional Installation by Gate Repairer Ltd

Every smart gate install or upgrade includes:

  • Motor compatibility check: confirm system type, wiring and control board options.
  • WiFi / 4G signal testing: best placement for stable connectivity.
  • Full app setup: device pairing, user permissions and notifications.
  • User training: we show you how to operate and manage access.
  • Aftercare: support and servicing options to keep everything reliable.
Tip: Smart features work best when the gate is mechanically sound and correctly serviced. If your gate is noisy, misaligned or unreliable, we may recommend a repair or service first.

Smart Electric Gates FAQs

Can you make my existing electric gate “smart”?
In most cases, yes. We’ll check your motor and control board, then recommend the best smart upgrade option. Some older systems may need a small retrofit for reliable app control.
Do smart gates work if my WiFi is weak at the entrance?
If WiFi is weak, we can often use a 4G option or improve connectivity with the right setup. We test signal on site before installing.
Can I give temporary access to couriers or visitors?
Yes. Smart systems allow time-limited access and user management so you can grant and revoke permissions easily.
Do you install cameras and intercom integration?
Yes, where compatible. Camera and intercom options can be added (additional fees apply) and we’ll advise the best setup for your site.
