Options
Gates & Operators Styles We Install
Slide Gates
Moving horizontally along a track system, slide gates are ideal for Raleigh properties with limited space and frequent access in commercial and industrial settings.
Cantilever Slide Gates
These self-supporting gates eliminate the need for ground tracks, making them excellent for uneven terrain or areas where track maintenance could be a problem.
Swing Gates
Available in single or double-leaf configurations, swing gates offer a traditional approach to controlled access where space allows, supporting gates of various sizes and weights.
Vertical Lift Gates
When traditional gate movements are impractical, these systems raise the gate vertically, making them perfect for urban environments or areas with unique spatial requirements.
Barrier Arms
For rapid access control in high-traffic areas, barrier arms offer quick operation and integrate with various access control technologies in parking facilities and industrial settings.
Pedestrian Gates
Designed for safe and convenient foot traffic, our pedestrian gate operators comply with all relevant safety standards while providing reliable access control.

FAQ
Gates & Operators in Raleigh — Common Questions
What happens to my gate operator during a power outage?
Our gate operators include battery backup systems that maintain operation during power outages, and manual release mechanisms also allow for manual operation; we recommend discussing backup power options during your consultation to ensure uninterrupted access control in Raleigh.
How long do gate operators typically last?
With proper maintenance, commercial gate operators typically last 10 to 15 years or more, depending on usage frequency, environmental conditions, and maintenance practices, and our preventative maintenance programs help maximize the operational life of your equipment.
What safety features are included in modern gate operators?
Modern gate operators include photo eyes that detect obstructions, pressure sensors that prevent crushing, warning lights and sounds that alert people to gate movement, and safety edges that stop the gate when contact is made, with all of our installations complying with UL 325 safety standards.
Can I add a gate operator to my existing gate?
In many cases, yes, though the gate must be properly constructed and in good condition to support automation, and our team can assess your existing gate to determine compatibility and recommend any necessary modifications.
What areas do you serve?
We install gate operators and automatic gates throughout Raleigh and the surrounding the Triangle area.
