Automatic Gate System Installation

Professional Solutions for Residential and Commercial Properties

Modern automatic gate system installed at residential property entrance

Installing an automated gate system provides enhanced security, convenience, and property value. Our company specializes in complete installation services for sliding gates, swing gates, and barrier systems across Milano and surrounding areas. Each project begins with a technical assessment where we measure the opening width, evaluate the terrain slope, and determine the optimal motor capacity based on gate weight and daily usage frequency.

We work with three main motor types: electromechanical units for gates up to 400 kg, hydraulic systems for heavy-duty applications up to 800 kg, and underground motors for installations requiring minimal visual impact. The choice depends on gate dimensions, material composition, and operational requirements. For residential properties with gates between 3-5 meters wide, we typically recommend 24V DC motors with integrated obstacle detection and soft-start mechanisms to reduce mechanical stress.

Our installation process includes foundation preparation, motor mounting, control board setup, and safety device integration. We install photocells at ground level to detect vehicles and pedestrians, while edge sensors on gate profiles provide contact-based protection. All systems comply with EN 12453 safety standards and include emergency manual release mechanisms. The control panel allows programming for opening speed, pause time, and automatic closure intervals ranging from 30 seconds to 5 minutes.

Standard installations take 6-8 hours for single gates and 10-12 hours for double-leaf configurations. We provide wireless remote controls operating on 433 MHz frequency with rolling code encryption, smartphone connectivity through Wi-Fi modules, and optional integration with existing intercom systems. Post-installation service includes operator training, maintenance schedule setup, and 24-month warranty coverage on motors and electronic components. Our technical team remains available for adjustments, seasonal maintenance checks, and system upgrades as property requirements evolve over time.

Choosing the Right Motor for Sliding Gates

Selecting an appropriate motor depends on gate weight, frequency of use, and environmental conditions. For residential sliding gates weighing 400-600 kg, a 24V DC motor with 800-1000 N thrust provides reliable operation. Commercial installations with gates exceeding 800 kg require industrial-grade motors rated at 230V AC with minimum 1500 N thrust capacity. Consider duty cycle ratings: residential systems typically handle 30-40 cycles daily, while commercial applications may require continuous-duty motors for 100+ daily operations.

Safety Features Every Automated Gate Needs

Modern installations must include photocell sensors positioned 15-20 cm above ground level on both sides of the gate path. These infrared beams detect obstacles and immediately halt gate movement. Force-limiting technology measures motor resistance and stops operation when encountering 150 N of pressure, preventing injury. Emergency manual release mechanisms allow gate operation during power outages. Flashing warning lights activate 3 seconds before gate movement begins, alerting pedestrians and vehicles in the vicinity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about automated gate systems, installation process, and maintenance requirements.

The installation timeline depends on several factors including gate type, property configuration, and existing infrastructure. For a standard swing or sliding gate installation on a prepared site, the process typically takes 1-2 working days. This includes mounting the motor, installing control panels, setting up safety sensors, and configuring remote access systems.

More complex projects involving ground preparation, electrical work, or custom fabrication may require 3-5 days. During the initial site assessment, we provide a detailed schedule that accounts for your specific requirements. We coordinate all aspects to minimize disruption to your daily routine while ensuring proper installation of each component.

Regular maintenance ensures reliable operation and extends system lifespan. We recommend professional servicing every 6-12 months, which includes inspecting mechanical components, lubricating moving parts, checking motor performance, testing safety features, and verifying electrical connections.

Between professional visits, basic upkeep involves keeping tracks clean from debris, checking for loose hardware, and testing safety sensors monthly. Modern systems with brushless motors require less frequent attention than older models. Our maintenance plans include priority service, detailed inspection reports, and replacement of worn components before they cause operational issues. Proper care typically results in 10-15 years of reliable service from quality automation systems.

Many existing gates can be successfully automated if they meet certain structural requirements. The gate must be in sound condition, properly balanced, and constructed with materials capable of supporting automation hardware. We assess factors such as weight (typically under 400kg for residential systems), hinge integrity, frame strength, and clearance space for motors.

Gates with rust damage, warped frames, or inadequate foundations may require reinforcement or replacement before automation. Wooden gates over 10 years old often need structural evaluation. During our site visit, we measure all specifications and recommend whether automation is feasible or if a new gate would be more cost-effective. In many cases, upgrading to a purpose-built automated gate provides better long-term value through improved reliability and reduced maintenance needs.

Modern installations incorporate multiple safety mechanisms to prevent accidents and injuries. Standard features include infrared photocells that detect obstructions in the gate path, pressure-sensitive edges that reverse movement upon contact, and adjustable force limiters that stop the motor if resistance is encountered. These systems comply with EN 12453 safety standards for powered gates.

Additional options include loop detectors for vehicle presence, flashing warning lights, audible alerts before movement, and emergency manual release mechanisms. Smart systems offer smartphone monitoring with real-time alerts for unexpected operation. We configure sensitivity settings based on your environment—higher sensitivity for areas with children or pets. All installations include thorough safety testing and user training to ensure proper operation of every protective feature.

All automated systems include manual release mechanisms that allow you to disengage the motor and operate the gate by hand during power failures. This typically involves using a key-operated release or internal lever to disconnect the drive mechanism. We provide clear instructions and practice this procedure during installation handover.

For locations where power interruptions are common or security is critical, we offer battery backup systems that maintain full automation for 8-20 cycles depending on battery capacity. Solar panel options provide sustainable power in remote locations. Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) units can keep systems operational for several hours. These backup solutions ensure continuous access regardless of electrical service status, which is particularly valuable for commercial properties or homes with medical needs requiring reliable vehicle access.
