Custom-made Powder-coated Automated Steel Gate & Railings
"Where Turn-Around Counts"
Assesmont were contracted to design, fabricate and install dark grey powder coated automated steel gate and fencing to this private property in Wickford, Essex, all custom-designed to the client’s requirements. We also installed brick pier flashings to protect the walls from water damage.
Our experienced team of fabricators and installers have a wealth of knowledge in the industry and ensure that all projects are completed with precision and accuracy. We use modern techniques and advanced equipment for cutting, welding, forming and machining alongside traditional hand fabrication methods for a finely tailored and unique finish.
Typically an expertly fabricated gate plus railings such as these cost about £7,000 (+VAT).*
Gate Automation
Swing gates automation was installed using the BBFT GUINO BT A50 Hydraulic Double Kit. The existing rising bollard was connected to the new automation system. Photocells were mounted both sides of the gate. If an obstacle is detected whilst gates are in operation they will automatically stop, open, then wait 30 seconds before attempting to close again.
We had a safety loop installed to ensure the bollard doesn’t rise up on any cars. A Vehicle Loop Detector works by placing a coil of ground loop cable under your driveway, it connects to the detector and picks up a change in frequency when a body of metal passes directly over the coil of ground loop cable, this in turn triggers the gates to open, or can also be used as a safety feature to prevent the gates closing whilst a vehicle is detected.
Price of gate and bollard automation such as described here is £2,900.*
