Gate Automation & Retrofitting
Already have gates? We can automate them for you
Transform Your Existing Gates with Automation
Already have gates you're happy with? There's no need to replace them. Our professional gate automation retrofitting service brings modern convenience and enhanced security to your existing gates without the cost of complete replacement.
We specialize in automating all types of existing gates – whether they're wooden, metal, or aluminium, swing or sliding. As Roger Technology approved installers and Gate Safe Aware registered professionals, we'll assess your current gates, recommend the optimal automation solution, and install a system that operates safely and reliably and meets all current regulations.
How Gate Automation Works
Our retrofitting service begins with a comprehensive site survey where we assess your existing gates, mounting points, power supply requirements, and any structural modifications needed. We'll discuss your requirements and recommend the best automation system for your specific gates.
Once approved, our experienced team installs premium Roger Technology motors and control systems, adds all necessary safety features, and ensures your automated gates comply with current Gate Safe Aware standards. The entire process typically takes just 1-2 days with minimal disruption to your property.
Our Retrofit Process:
- 1 Free site survey and gate assessment
- 2 Detailed quotation with automation recommendations
- 3 Professional installation by certified engineers
- 4 Full testing, commissioning and handover
- 5 Safety certification and documentation
