Straight answers

What people askbefore they book.

  • Weight-matched
  • Duty-cycle rated
  • Programmed on site
  • Backup power options
Why not just fit the cheapest operator?
An under-rated motor dies on the duty cycle. The gate's weight and daily use pick the unit.
Can I keep my remotes?
Usually. If the frequency matches we re-program what you already carry.
There's no power at the gate.
Solar and battery operators exist for exactly that. Where trenching is easy, we trench.
