WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF AUTOMATING YOUR GATE?

Why install an automatic gate?

‍

Saving time and improving efficiency

‍

One of the main advantages of gate automation is the considerable time it saves. You no longer need to get out of the car to open or close the gate manually, which is particularly useful when it's raining or when you're in a hurry. With a simple click on a remote control, you can control the opening and closing of the gate from a distance.

‍

What's more, automation also improves process efficiency. The electric motors used in automated systems are designed to deliver constant, even power, ensuring smooth gate movement without jerking or jamming.

‍

Enhanced safety

‍

Automating a gate also contributes to the overall security of the property. Automated systems are often equipped with an anti-intrusion feature that detects any attempt at unauthorized access. Some models even offer the option of integrating video cameras so you can monitor the surroundings in real time.

‍

What's more, automatic devices can be programmed to lock automatically after each passage, or to synchronize with an existing home automation system to create a global security strategy.

‍

Everyday comfort

‍

Automating a gate brings undeniable convenience to everyday life. As well as eliminating the need to get out of your car in the rain, you can control the opening and closing of your gate from inside your home or business. This is particularly practical when you're entertaining guests or need to let bulky items in or out.

‍

What's more, some automated systems can be integrated with a mobile app, meaning you can manage your gate remotely from anywhere in the world with an Internet connection. Access to greater convenience is also a big plus for users.

‍

Energy savings

‍

Last but not least, one of the great advantages of an electric or automatic gate is the energy savings it offers. By programming the system to switch off automatically after a period of inactivity, you avoid wasting electricity.

Similarly, some models can be fitted with sensor or photocell boxes that detect presence, thus reducing power consumption by operating the motor only when necessary.
