The gate knows who it is.

Gates, garage doors and front doors that open for the people who should be there, keep a record of everyone who was, and still open when the power is off.

  • Retrofitted to your existing motors
  • Per-person access, revoked in seconds
  • Battery-backed — still opens in an outage

What you get

What is actually fitted.

No package names and no tiers. This is the work, and the quote is the same list with prices against it.

01

Retrofit, not replace

Gate and garage motors that already work do not need replacing to become controllable. We add the controller and the credentials around what is there.

  • Works with common gate and garage motors
  • Phone, tag, keypad or all three
  • The original remote keeps working
02

Access per person

A copied remote is a key you cannot take back. Per-person credentials mean the domestic worker, the pool service and the tenant each have their own — and revoking one takes seconds and does not affect anybody else.

  • RFID tags, fingerprint or facial recognition
  • Time-limited access for a contractor
  • Revoked from your phone, immediately
03

A record, and a picture

Every entry logged, and the log paired with a snapshot from the camera covering that gate. “Who opened the gate at 14:10” stops being a conversation and becomes a line you can look at.

  • Entry log with time and credential
  • Camera snapshot on the same event
  • Alerts on the ones you care about

What it costs

The assessment is free, and so is the written summary that follows it. What you get back is a fixed quote — the list above with prices against it, per item, so you can cut any line you do not want. Nothing is ordered and nothing is fitted until you have said yes to that number, and it does not move afterwards unless you change the scope.

Why it is done this way

Outages are when a gate matters most.

A gate motor with a flat battery is a gate you push by hand in the dark, and a front door that depends on a router is a door that stops working when the router does. Access hardware has to be specified around losing power, not around a showroom.

So the controller, the reader and the motor sit on protected circuits, and the system falls back rather than failing shut or failing open at random. The physical key and the original remote keep working: nothing we fit takes away a route you already had.

The same wiring that makes that possible is what pairs the entry log to a camera, which is why access and CCTV are usually specified together even when they are installed months apart.

What we put in writing

Five things, on every job.

  • Free assessment The written findings are yours to keep, act on, or take to a competitor.
  • Fixed price Itemised line by line, and it does not move once you have accepted it.
  • Qualified electrician Every time, documented. Board work is notifiable and we do not cut corners.
  • No lock-in Zigbee, Matter and Modbus. Any competent installer can take it over.
  • Ninety days If the saving has not shown up on your bill, we come back and retune.
Why we put it in writing
The same kit we fit

Controllers, readers and gate hardware.

Gate and garage controllers, relays and readers — the same items we fit, with the fitting notes on every product page.

Everything in the shop is inventory we install, at trade-informed prices, and every product page says whether it needs an electrician. Delivery is couriered in 2–4 working days once payment clears, free over R2 500 — see delivery and returns and warranty.

Questions

The three we are asked about this one.

Usually not. Most common motors take a controller alongside them, and the original remotes keep working. If yours is one of the exceptions, the assessment will say so before you have spent anything.

That credential is revoked from any other device or by us, and the tag or code keeps working in the meantime. No single lost thing should lock you out of your own property.

Yes — a credential with a window on it, which stops working on its own. It is the main reason people move off copied remotes.
