Full design, reinforced foundations, counterbalanced beam and heavy-duty motor installation with safety sensors and weatherproofing.
Cantilever Gate Retrofit
Convert existing cantilever gates to electric operation with motor upgrades, sealed controls and rechecked foundations for heavy clays.
Why Rayleigh Electric Gates
Wide openings often fail from inadequate foundations or exposed motors; correct specification prevents sag, blockages and freeze faults.
Ashingdon's heavy clays can shrink or swell, shifting posts and causing gate misalignment and binding over time.
Ground-level tracks fill with farm mud, causing frequent blockages, sensor faults and operational delays on gates.
Frost and exposure increase seal wear and condensation ingress, leading to motor failures and unexpected callouts.
Steel counterbalanced beam removes ground track and supports spans up to 8m, spreading loads evenly across bearings.
Deeper concrete sleeves sized for heavy clays prevent movement and maintain gate alignment for decades.
Who We Help
Owners on Ashingdon Road or Church Lane wanting track-free gates that cope with farm traffic and mud.
Smallholdings and farms needing durable counterbalanced systems that tolerate tractors, lorries and frequent openings.
Managers requiring low-maintenance automation, central access control and reliable operation across long site entrances.
