Gate Automation

Automatic gates are used to control access into a secured area. Most commonly, automatic gates are used at the entrance to the facility, and are used to control vehicular access on and off of the site. For example, a manufacturing plant may use an automatic gate at its main entrance. All vehicles entering and exiting the plant must do so through the automatic gate. Automatic gates are also used at interior areas within a facility. For example, automatic gates are commonly used within the inside of a parking garage to separate employee parking areas from public areas of the garage.

Automatic gates commonly use electric motors or hydraulics to operate them. Swing gates rotate around hinges on gate posts at the sides of driveway entrances. Sliding gates are moved by a static motor. They typically have backup batteries, remote controls, other settings and can be solar powered too.
