Gate Automation

These fall into three general categories.

1. Existing Gates that require automation

2. New Gate Installations

3. Sliding Gates.

Bat Automation supply and install products that comply with the EN standards for maximum impact force established by EN12445 & EN12453 Technical Regulations

1.

Existing Gates that require automation are generally fitted with external above ground RAMS , these are either Electromechanical or Hydraulic, the former is mainly used on small residential gates such as 5 Bar type Gates.

Hydraulic Rams are used on larger wooden gate and ornamental metal gates.

2.

New Gate installations are mainly fitted with underground operators, these are installed in two stages, firstly the ground works and foundation box for the operators are fitted, and secondly the automation takes place this is normally done over a period of 1-2 weeks to allow for the concrete to cure that surround the foundation boxes.

3.

Sliding Gate Installations are found mainly due to operating restrictions of the above 2. These can either be Cantilever ( without track ) or Tracked across the opening , cantilever are becoming more popular due to tracked types becoming clogged with leaves , grit and dirt the tracked type need more maintenance than the cantilever. Both types need a foundation plate and footings to ensure correct operation.

The type and specification will be assessed by our surveyor at the site visit.

Most gate operators are now available in 24 v versions , allowing these systems to be fitted with battery back up, to allow operation even in the event of power failure.

These are also 100% duty rated for intensive use.
