Need Help?

SonSec can assess the site, diagnose faults and recommend a support path for the relevant product or service.

Selection factors

Gate weight, gate length, daily operations, slope, wind exposure, backup battery requirements and available safety accessories all affect the correct automation choice.

Professional assessment

SonSec checks the mechanical condition of the gate or door before recommending a motor, because automation reliability depends on the gate moving freely before the motor is installed.
