Protect Your Property with Automatic Electric Gates
Turning a profit isn’t the only priority for a thriving business; how it controls access, protects its assets and keeps staff safe are all part of what makes it successful. That’s where automated security gates make a real difference. At H&B Fencing + Gates, we design and manufacture high-performance electric commercial security gates built for durability, safety and long-term reliability, including tailored commercial automatic gates. From warehouses to office complexes, we help businesses take control of who enters and when.
Why Electric Security Gates Are a Smart Choice
Commercial properties are vulnerable to unauthorised vehicle access, theft, vandalism and after-hours trespassing. Automatic electric gates act as a strong and visible deterrent while still providing controlled, convenient access for authorised personnel and visitors.
Unlike manual systems, electric gates make daily operations easier. Staff can open gates without leaving their vehicles, integrated access systems allow delivery drivers to be managed efficiently, and sites with high traffic can maintain a steady flow without compromising security.
Designed for Australian Conditions
The Australian climate can be harsh — from intense sun exposure to coastal corrosion. Our commercial gate systems are built to withstand these conditions. We manufacture our electric security gates using high-grade steel, finished with premium powder and industrial coatings engineered for heavy-duty, high-cycle use.
They’re ideal for warehouses, distribution centres, commercial car parks and industrial facilities, and can be custom-built to suit your site requirements, including:
- Sliding gates (tracked or cantilever).
- Swing gates for wider access points
- Bi-fold or telescopic systems for limited space
- Heavy-duty industrial configurations
Integrated Access Control for Better Security
As time progresses, so does security technology. That’s why H&B Fencing + Gates specialises in integrating gates with advanced access control systems, including:
- Keypad and scanner entry systems
- Remote keyless entry
- Intercom and video systems
- ANPR (automatic number plate recognition)
- Vehicle loop detectors
- PE beam and exit loops
- Timers
With electric security gates, commercial properties can better manage employee access, monitor visitor entry and maintain secure after-hours operations while improving overall convenience.
A Complete Perimeter Security Solution
As fencing and gate specialists, we understand that a gate is only as strong as the perimeter it protects. That’s why we offer a wide range of integrated fencing solutions, including high-security options such as anti climb mesh, to create a complete and cohesive perimeter system.
From consultation and design through to fabrication, installation and ongoing support, our team manages the entire process with your operational needs in mind. This ensures consistent quality, faster turnaround times and a solution tailored specifically to your site from an experienced fencing contractor in Melbourne.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can any manual gate be automated, or does it require a purpose-built gate frame?
While many existing manual gates can be retrofitted with an electric motor, the gate frame and posts must be structurally sound, level, and capable of handling mechanical opening forces. Purpose-built automated gate frames include reinforced mounting brackets, dedicated cable conduit paths, and integrated safety stops. We inspect your existing setup to determine if retrofitting or a custom replacement frame is the most reliable option.
What happens if there is a power outage or electrical failure on site?
All our commercial automatic gate motors include a manual key-release mechanism, allowing authorised staff to disengage the drive gear and operate the gate manually. For high-security or critical-access facilities, we offer battery backup systems, which provide 30+ emergency cycles, and solar-powered motor options.
What access control technologies can trigger our automated gate?
Our automated systems interface seamlessly with virtually all commercial access control hardware:
- Wireless Triggers: Remote keyfobs and GSM mobile app control.
- Vehicle Triggers: Underground magnetic exit/entry loops and RFID tag readers.
- Personnel Triggers: Keypads, swipe card readers, and audio/video intercom systems.
We can also integrate with your existing access control provider.
What safety features are installed to prevent the gate from hitting vehicles or pedestrians?
Safety is our priority. Our automated systems can be fitted with photo-electric (PE) safety beams, which prevent the gate from closing if an object blocks the line of sight, in-ground vehicle detection loops, obstacle-detection auto-reverse sensors, warning strobe lights, and audible signal alerts.
Can we run automated gates on solar power if 240V mains power is unavailable at our boundary?
Yes, for low-traffic sites. Solar automation suits rural properties and remote perimeters where running mains power isn't practical. It needs good sun exposure and is best for gates that open and close a limited number of times a day.
What maintenance is required to keep an automated gate operating smoothly?
Regular preventative maintenance extends motor life and prevents site downtime. We recommend semi-annual or annual servicing for commercial sites. This includes checking track cleanliness, inspecting safety beam alignment, lubricating mechanical hinges/rollers, testing motor force sensitivity, and checking battery backup health.
