How A Gate System Can Help Your Community
Automatic gate systems are a staple in the most secure communities around the world. They allow for better comfort thanks to their automation system. At the same time, you can rest assured no one can enter unauthorized.
Why should you consider an automatic gate?
Communities should value security before anything else. Thankfully, we have many solutions for our needs today. Automated entry systems are one of the most affordable and practical options in the market.
Security
Automatic gates are an ideal security measure. Residents don’t need to leave their car to open the gate. Additionally, you can adjust how quickly they open and close, as well as ID methods.
Comfort
Manual gates are quite heavy. Besides, they need to open manually, requiring exiting and re-entering your car. The other option is to distract your security staff, none of which are good ideas.
Versatility
Modern entry systems offer more than a gate. Security staff can decide which inputs work at certain times. Some also implement alarm systems to ensure you know whenever someone enters the community.
Control
Automation doesn’t mean giving up control. You can count the number of times the system engages, enabling security services to check for unwanted guests. You can also shut down the system entirely.
How does the automatic gate installation work?
Luckily, installing an automatic gate takes less than a day, even if someone installs them by themselves. Once you decide which gate you want to implement, you only need hours to get it up and running.
Most of the time goes into installing the gate. The mechanical setup takes around half of that time, and setting up the system for modern automatic gates is even faster.
Preparation
The first step is to find the right gate for your community. This includes taking measures and installing additional elements, like posts. Once your gateway is ready for installations, you can start placing your entry system.
Installation
Installation takes up to 5 or 6 hours for the gate, and half that time for the motor. Setting up the system might take around an hour as well. You need to set up the track, catcher, stopper, and other primary parts. By the end, you’ll have a working mechanical gate.
Automation
The last step is to set up the necessary entry system to automate your gate. This step also includes installing sensors and alarm systems.
