Steel gates are often used as security gates and can be sliding gates or swing gates. Traditionally sliding automatic gates have been used for heavy duty or commercial auto gates, with swing auto gates being used in lighter domestic automatic gate driveways. Like most rules, there are exeptions. Sliding automatic gates can be used where room is tight, and swing gates would interfere with parking space for the second vehicle.

Melbourne Automatic Gates have used underground automatic gate motors for heavy wrought iron or solid steel gates to 500kg, and industrial rams for commercial gates to 800kg. Most residential driveway gates can have automatic gate motors which can be powered with safe low voltage cable running from the control box.

Ray and his team are professional, experienced and efficient. They are also great guys. They replaced the motors on my gates which were 20 years old and came out quickly when I explained that we had just gotten back from living overseas and were going through a number of stressful circumstances. I was even more impressed by their after sales service. We had a faulty battery which they replaced immediately and they also soldered a bolt that had worn on our gate. Thank you Ray.
Needless to say I would highly recommend this company and use them again in the future for servicing etc.

I was very impressed with the service from Ray at Automatic Gates. I urgently needed replacement remotes for our gates and he was out of the shop but kindly left the remotes for me at the shop next door so I could have the remotes in time.

I can’t recommend Ray, Luke and Phil highly enough. We are loving our new gate and heightened security. The process was painless thanks to their great communication and top workmanship. Happy to recommend and be a reference site.

Excellent service and excellent quality.
I have recently had a pedestrian gate, sliding driveway gate and intercom all made & installed through Automatic Gates. I found them to be professional, extremely knowledgeable and I'm thrilled with the final product. Their attention to detail and care was outstanding, I could not recommend them more highly.
