Four things you can add to your automatic gate system to increase security

Four things you can add to your automatic gate system to increase security

An automatic gate offers fantastic security and privacy for both commercial and domestic properties. Not only that, they may help to increase the value of a property, as the prospect of increased security and privacy is very appealing to many.

Yet it’s possible to make an automatic gate system even more secure. You can add several things to your gate system to further enhance it, making your home or business even more secure!

1. Security Camera

A security camera can be easily installed to your automatic gate, and it’s one of the most effective security measures to add. CCTV acts as a notable preventative to any would-be intruders, as not many want to be identified when trying to trespass onto your premises.

Furthermore, you can view the footage from the camera to see if there is anyone there that shouldn’t be. Should anyone attempt a crime, such as trespassing, you will have evidence to take to the authorities.

2. Alarm System

Even the most robust automatic gate systems might not put off an intruder or vandal, in which case it helps to have a good alarm system installed. There are various types of alarms that can be added, such as a silent alarm that notifies you of an issue, or a warning beacon that can be used to scare off anyone attempting to break through or climb the gate.

3. Electronic Lock

To make an automatic gate even more secure, consider adding an electronic locking system. If you already have a basic lock, it may be worth adding a newer, more advanced security lock for increased protection.

For example, a keypad lock offers quality security and is suitable for unmanned gates, as it allows restricted access to those you want. This is especially useful in workplaces with no security personnel manning their gates.

4. Smartphone Control

Many automatic gate installers have seen the potential of smartphones to increase security. This type of feature is ideal for remote control access, allowing you to see who is at the gate (providing its connected to a camera) and to open or lock the gate from your phone.

As a result, you can always monitor your gate from a remote location, taking any security precautions you may see fit – such as contacting the police about a potential security threat.

Plus, you can also let yourself in from your car using your phone, making it that much more convenient!

I have to say that the service at Superior Gate Services was fantastic. Cindy first took my call and was super helpful and friendly.  We just bought a home that has an electric gate and we wanted it repaired and serviced.  She managed to get us into a slot the next day and called that next morning to give us a time range. Great follow-up! Our technician Sean (I hope I remembered his name correctly) was awesome and went through the repairs,  and gave several operating and home maintenance tips to my husband.  This company aims to please on all counts and delivers !!  We will be using them again and would definitely recommend them.

I got a quote the same afternoon I inquired, had the gate installed within a week, and Scott and his crew have always gone above and beyond to help out, even reconnecting my garage wires that the dog ripped out when they were just quoting me on the gate. If I've ever had any trouble, they go out of their way to come out promptly and help in anyway they can... Obviously without ever charging me for a visit. Highly recommend!!

Nothing but positive things to say about this company. I had called them last week first when my automatic gate stopped working but then remembered that I had a home warranty so told them never mind but then it ended up not being covered. So I emailed them back and they called me the next business day and came over within an hour! Scott came out and told me it just needed some tuning up and the actual opener was in good shape and one of the best ones. So he did a tune up and he helped me change the code for my gate opener!

Called these guys off their positive yelp reviews after getting the run around from another contractor. They took my first service call and responded quickly and took care of the problem and worked around my schedule. Since that first call uv had two other properties needing their services and just like the first call no hassles. Show up take care of it and reasonable prices. They don't hit you with extras like some others do they fix the problem and then they do a full tune up and cleaning on the gate at the same time. My other contractor would charge extra to do the tune up. That's dumb. Just make it happen. That's what they do. They just make it happen without taking you to the bank. Thanks superior for being on the team, your a great asset.
