Damaged or seized sliding gate wheels can increase mechanical resistance and force the gate motor to work harder during every cycle. This Dover Heights NSW case explains how wheel condition, track movement and motor load are connected—and why mechanical faults should be corrected before blaming the automation.

A busy transport facility in Alexandria required controlled access without disrupting vehicle flow. See how two Beninca EVA5 boom gates, carefully positioned detection and automatic exit loops were designed as one efficient vehicle access system.

Limited space, a heavy gate and high expected usage made a conventional sliding gate unsuitable for this Bondi Beach project. See how a three-section telescopic sliding gate was designed to achieve the required opening within the restricted available space.

For a high-usage gas terminal in Port Kembla NSW, motor selection required more than enough power to move the gate. See why duty cycle, gate load, reliability, serviceability and future maintenance led to the selection of a 100% duty cycle hydraulic sliding gate motor.

An automatic gate manual release may remain unused until a power failure or breakdown makes it essential. This preventative maintenance topic explains why testing the release, checking the key and ensuring responsible personnel understand the procedure can improve emergency readiness.

An automatic gate can have power at the control board and still refuse to move. Learn how automatic gate faults in Mosman NSW can be diagnosed by checking power, safety circuits, controller status, motor output and mechanical gate condition.

An automatic gate can stop, struggle or display motor faults even when the motor itself is still operational. Learn how wheels, tracks, hinges, rack alignment and physical resistance can create faults that appear to be automation problems.

A vehicle loop can detect correctly and still be positioned incorrectly for the site. See why we relocated a boom gate loop after assessing vehicle paths, stopping positions, boom arm movement and the complete access sequence.

Some of the most important boom gate maintenance happens inside the control cabinet. This preventative maintenance visit at The Fiddler in Rouse Hill shows how inspections can identify contamination, moisture, loose connections and other developing issues before they contribute to failure.

A commercial vehicle entrance in Austral NSW required more than a standalone boom gate. This project brought together a Beninca automatic boom gate, Akuvox video intercom, credential access, radar vehicle detection and safety systems to create one coordinated access control solution for secure entry and automatic exit.
