Owning a landed property in Singapore comes with both convenience and responsibility – from maintaining your exterior façade to ensuring your family’s security and privacy.

Why Singapore Homeowners Choose Automatic Gates
Automatic gates are increasingly common in landed properties across estates such as Bukit Timah, Serangoon Gardens, Thomson, and Bedok. Beyond convenience, they offer tangible benefits that suit the Singapore context:
- Enhanced Security: Automated locking systems and motion sensors reduce unauthorized access, giving peace of mind when you’re away.
- Convenience at Your Fingertips: Open or close your gate via remote control, wall switch, or smartphone app — no more stepping out in the rain.
- Safety and Smart Integration: Modern gates integrate with alarm systems, intercoms, and even smart home platforms.
- Property Value: A well-installed auto gate improves curb appeal and overall home valuation.

Slide and Swing Auto Gates — Built for Every Driveway Layout
Your gate mechanism depends heavily on your driveway layout and space availability. We install both Sliding and Swing Auto Gates, each offering distinct benefits:
Sliding Auto Gates
Ideal for narrow driveways or limited front yard space, a sliding gate moves horizontally along a track.
- Suitable for long, flat driveways and corner terrace units.
- Smooth, silent operation with soft-close technology.
- Can be manual override in case of power outage.
Swing Auto Gates
Preferred for wider driveways and traditional home designs, swing gates open inward or outward like doors.
- Aesthetic appeal with symmetrical design.
- Compatible with wrought iron, aluminium, and composite panels.
- Option to automate existing manual swing gates.
Local Installation Note: Most Singapore landed homes have inward-opening swing gates due to urban planning guidelines and road safety rules.
Auto Gate with Sensor — Smarter, Safer, and Fully Automated
Step into the future with Auto Gates equipped with motion, safety beam, or vehicle detection sensors. These systems use infrared or magnetic field technology to sense when to open or close safely.
How it works:
- Sensors detect your car’s presence and trigger the motor automatically.
- Built-in obstruction detection ensures gates stop or reverse if an object is in the path.
- Optional smart sensors integrate with your home Wi-Fi network for automation via Google Home or Apple HomeKit.
Benefits for Singapore homes:
- Prevents accidental damage to cars or delivery vehicles.
- Ideal for homes with children or pets playing nearby.
- Eliminates the need for remote control in day-to-day use.
