Why Rayleigh Electric Gates
Poor specification and mounting often cause jams, motor overloads, and safety failures; correct design and fixing prevent those common faults.
Daily manual use strains hinges and latches; Thundersley's regular rainfall increases swelling and sticking that block access.
Many timber or steel frames need hinge reinforcement or mounting plates; an incorrect retrofit risks misalignment and wasted spend.
Motor or controller faults can leave you locked out; missing obstacle detection increases the risk of damage or injury.
Electromechanical or hydraulic motors deliver a full swing typically under six seconds, reducing queues and improving daily convenience.
Infrared beams and edge sensors trigger immediate motor reversal to prevent collisions and meet current safety guidance.
Who We Help
Owners of detached suburban homes needing one-click access, keypad or fob control, and minimal ongoing maintenance.
Local shops and offices requiring reliable, fast-opening gates to prevent delivery delays and secure overnight stock.
Managing communal entrances and resident access with centralised fob systems and scheduled maintenance plans.
