Common Questions about the Usefulness of Electric Gates

11/10/2013 Back To Blog

When people spend money on various products for the reinforcement of their security, they want to be sure of the effectiveness of the systems, the options, the alternatives and certainly the cost. The installation of automatic wrought iron gates can guarantee security, privacy and safety as long as the system is maintained properly and regularly. You may install great home locks and alarm systems but the installation of electric residential gate openers will be the first wall of defense against many enemies and threats.

Do electric gates offer enough protection?

They will definitely give you the power to control who is entering your premises. An intercom installation with all the necessary gadgets for verbal and visual communication with people at the entrance will give you full control over your property. Electric gates would have sensors for high safety and can have many more features to prevent entrapment like beam and loop detectors and edge switches. When it comes to access control you can use a simple gate clicker or a keypad with codes. Of course, the combination of many technological devices, like cameras or light sensors, will make your property even safer.

What are the electric gate prices?

There is not a fixed price since the final cost would depend on many factors. As an overall, you will need over $2000 but this is only an indication because the cost of the system would be determined according to the type of the openers and the supplementary features. It would depend on the material and ornamental iron gates as well as custom made ones will cost you higher. The installation of the intercom and the remote will be an additional cost.

How does the electric gate open if the power is out?

All automatic gates have an emergency release that would enable you to open the gate manually in case there is a power failure. Though, many contemporary openers come with a backup battery system that is activated when the power is out and allow you to operate the steel gate for a few more hours automatically.
