Automating a heavy sliding gate on a slope requires more than choosing a powerful motor. Learn how gate weight, gradient, braking, rack alignment, foundations and safety systems influence a reliable automation design.

Ground track, cantilever or telescopic? Compare three common sliding gate designs and learn how opening width, run-back space, ground conditions, traffic and maintenance requirements influence the right choice.

Not every sliding gate fault requires new parts. Learn how cleaning a debris-filled gate track restored smooth operation after an automatic gate repeatedly stopped halfway through its cycle.

Automatic Gate Motor and Control Board Replacement at a School in Granville NSW

Our technicians attended a school in Granville NSW after an automatic gate system became unreliable during operation. Following a detailed inspection and fault diagnosis, it was identified that both the gate motor and control board had been damaged and required replacement.

The project involved removal of the faulty automation components, installation of a new automatic gate motor and control board, reconnection of existing accessories, safety testing, and full recommissioning of the gate system.

This type of automatic gate repair is critical in high-traffic environments such as schools, where reliable access control and safe gate operation are essential for daily site operations.
