Specification and Compatibility Tips
- Determine your gate type: swing, sliding, or boom, and confirm matching motor/controller kit and rack/track type.
- Check power supply voltage/current: most domestic gate motors in South Africa run on 12V or 24V DC, with some using 230V AC. Verify motor and controller specs before ordering replacements or upgrades.
- Look for remote frequency compatibility (315, 433, or 868 MHz typical in SA, check your existing remotes and receivers).
- Add surge protection on outdoor electronics due to thunderstorms and local grid instability.
- Enhance entry safety with dual-beam sensors, especially for motor-powered gates on busy driveways.
Quick Steps to Purchase
- Browse Security, Access Control & Automation for current device availability.
- Filter by brand or category (e.g., "gate automation", "remote transmitters").
- Confirm stock at your preferred branch using the live product pages or Branch Hours.
- Request a quote for larger/rollout orders or request a VAT invoice for business/estate projects.
Supporting Technical Advice
- Use local-rated cabling suitable for UV and weather - available per meter or in bulk reels.
- If integrating with IoT or GSM control, check compatible relay modules and comms accessories by region and device specification.
- Upgrade old gate motors with drop-in replacement controllers or universal remote kits for older estates.
