Safety and backup · Doral, FL
Photo-eyes, edge sensors and a manual release on every install.

Doral · Miami-Dade County
Two things separate a commissioned gate from a fitted one. The detection actually stops and reverses the leaf, tested rather than assumed. And there is a manual release you can find in the dark, with battery or solar backup where the site suits it.
A short frontage usually means a slide operator rather than a pair of arms, and the safety loop has to be cut into a driveway that was already short to begin with.
Older inland streets mix construction from several decades, so two openings on the same block are not necessarily the same problem.
Inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone
Miami-Dade sits inside the Florida Building Code's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, the strictest wind-load regime in the state, so the rating on posts, panels and hardware is not a nice-to-have here. Permits on top of that are issued locally — by the municipality or by the county — so what Doral wants to see on paper is worth confirming before anything is cut.

Before you call
- Loop detection
- Phone control
- Operator sized to weight
- Safety sensors
- Slide & cantilever options
- What happens in a power cut?
- Every install gets a manual release, and battery or solar backup where the site suits it.
- Is it safe around kids and pets?
- Photo-eyes and edge sensors stop and reverse the gate. They are commissioned, not just fitted.
- Can I still open it by hand?
- Every install gets a manual release, and where it goes is part of the job — it has to be findable in the dark.
- Will it work with my existing remotes?
- Often. Where the frequency matches, what you already carry gets re-programmed rather than replaced.
