Why Rayleigh Electric Gates

Gate Safe Aware compliance with detailed site surveys

Incorrect system design or poor connectivity leads to failed access, false alarms, and lockouts if not specified correctly.

Common Challenges

Unreliable remote access in damp weather
Estuarine dampness corrodes intercoms and keypads, causing intermittent failures, false alarms and frustrated visitors.
Compatibility issues with older gate electrics
Legacy motors and aging wiring often need control-board upgrades, isolating relays or sensor interfaces to accept smart modules.
Connectivity dropouts prevent authorisation
Poor Wi‑Fi or mobile signal on town streets can block app control; wired or hybrid links reduce outage risk.

How We Help

1080p video intercom for clear visitor ID
HD camera with two-way audio links to gate relays, allowing verified remote authorisation from a mobile device.
Encrypted app control and secure tokens
AES-256 encryption and token-based sessions reduce unauthorised access via mobile control and remote links.
Retrofit kits for existing gate motors
Control boards, isolating relays and sensor interfaces adapt older motors to accept smart access modules.
Remote event logs and security alerts
Cloud logs and push alerts record entry times, failed attempts and provide a clear audit trail for incidents.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about smart access and intercoms

Practical answers on compatibility, security, planning and what to expect on site.

Smart intercoms cut wasted trips to the gate, provide visitor verification and reduce delivery problems. Video and app control typically repay convenience through time saved and fewer missed deliveries.

Yes. Control boards, isolating relays and sensor interfaces let most existing motors accept smart modules without full gate replacement.

Intermittent faults usually worsen into total failure. Emergency callouts and replacement units cost 20–30% more than planned upgrades and leave you without remote access.

Most domestic intercoms do not need planning permission. Listed buildings or conservation areas may need consent, so check with Castle Point Borough Council if in doubt.

Weak Wi‑Fi or mobile signal can block app control. A wired network, cellular fallback or local hub reduces outage risk and keeps access reliable.

Delaying leaves entry points exposed, increases chance of breakdowns and can raise emergency repair costs. Early upgrades prevent repeated callouts and security gaps.

No. Work is completed by independent local Electric Gate Installations in and around Rayleigh. We review your request and arrange for a suitable installer to contact you with a quote and availability.
