Gate Opener Installation: Choosing What’s Right
Security gates provide high security for buildings and the surrounding property. They ensure safeguarding at specific entryways or access points. Installing these gates is one of our areas of expertise, guaranteeing you top-tier security.
A chain-link security gate offers a fully functional first impression of a safeguarded area. To soften an austere, utilitarian look, a gate made from aluminum or steel may make a more welcoming statement while providing the proper security.
On the other hand, security gates and turnstiles can control pedestrian access and provide adequate crowd control in high-traffic areas.
The right security gate will also help prevent traffic and pedestrian congestion while securing the premises. We can tailor a security gate system that works best for your property, given the vast array of options we have for you.
Security gates can be broken down into two major types: manual and automated. Manual gates need a person to open or close them. As a matter of convenience, manual gates may be more of a hindrance than a help as they will always require someone to stand guard and cater to everyone who enters or exits the premises. Price-wise, however, they are a better option if you are on a tight budget.
Automated security gates are gates that open and close via automatic openers. These require professional gate opener installation. Automated gates consist of two primary components:
- The gate is the physical object that is moved to block the opening. Most gates used in business applications are made of either ornamental iron or chain-link material and are usually designed to match the fencing adjacent to where it is installed, and
- The gate operator is the machinery that moves the gate in and out of the opening. Gate operators are electrically-powered and may be chain-driven, gear-driven, or hydraulic.
Automated security gates have very distinct advantages over manual ones. Aside from the obvious convenience, they not only give a strong impression of high-level security but also provide a stronger assurance of safety. One drawback of this type of gate, however, is the price. But for all the peace of mind, you will reap from this investment, the price won’t be a deal-breaker.
Automated gates are the go-to gates for homeowners and entrepreneurs wishing to have the security and convenience technology can provide to their properties. Our contractors can install the security gate for automatic gates powered by solar power or traditional electric wiring. On top of that, you can control our state-of-the-art automatic gates remotely or through keypad entry technology.

Sliding Gates – A sliding gate is a type of gate that operates by sliding horizontally along a rail system. It is a sturdy barrier that can provide a wide entry point. It is an efficient and reliable method for safe and secure vehicle access control at an entry point. This type of gate often requires a professional gate installer to ensure it functions properly.
A sliding gate typically closes at a speed of 25 centimeters per second but can reach a maximum of 50 centimeters per second. We consistently use an innovative design in which the weight of the gate is on the bottom track, making it safer and more well-balanced than other cantilever systems.
Sliding gates offer a modern style and maximum security for residential and commercial properties. This type of gate works best on a flat property with wide but short driveways because it requires a lot of horizontal space to operate efficiently.
Swing Gates – A swing gate is a type of gate that swings to open and close. It is used to secure entryways with a flat open space either behind or in front to accommodate the gate swinging in a wide half-circle or If your property has a narrow entryway. Depending on the available space, a swing gate can be designed as a single or double-drive gate. We can recommend and install the perfect swing gate for your property.
If you want to significantly improve your home’s curb appeal, swing gates are the perfect option.
Vertical Tilt Gates – A vertical tilt gate is a type of gate that opens by tilting upwards. It especially applies when there isn’t enough driveway space for a slide or swing gate. It is an excellent option because it maintains the same footprint.
Vertical tilt gates simplify mobility and plowing in areas with high snow accumulations. They are best for business sites that need secure access but don’t have room for large entry gates.
Security Gates – Security gates offer the highest security for your property over any other type of gate. Allsteel Fence has successfully safeguarded numerous residential and commercial properties with sturdy and high-quality materials installed at an optimum height to provide the greatest protection possible to properties.
