Gate Motors & Security in Brackenhurst
Reliable gate motors, electric fencing and home security for the leafy avenues of Brackenhurst. Same-day call-outs.
Home security that suits a family suburb
Brackenhurst is one of the quieter, greener parts of Alberton. Families settle here for the leafy avenues and the schools like Bracken High and Brackenhurst Primary, and a gate that works every time is part of what keeps a home like that feeling safe. When your gate stops opening on the school run, we can come out and fix it the same day so your morning is not thrown out.
A lot of Brackenhurst homeowners also ask us to automate an older manual gate or to get an electric fence charging again after a storm. We match the motor to the weight of your gate, run the fence neatly along the wall, and add a battery backup so none of it stops the moment the power goes.

Why storms are hard on Brackenhurst fences
The big summer storms on the Highveld are tough on electric fencing. A lightning strike nearby can knock out the energiser even when the wires still look fine. That leaves the fence dead without an obvious reason, which is exactly when people call us.
We test the energiser and the full line, replace what the storm caught, and earth it properly so the next storm does less damage. A fence that holds its charge is what actually keeps your dogs in the yard and keeps an intruder off the wall, so it is worth getting right.
Keeping a family gate safe and simple
With children and pets around, the gate has to be both reliable and safe. We set the closing speed gently, fit beams that stop the gate the moment something crosses, and program enough remotes for everyone who comes and goes.
You end up with a gate the whole family can use without a second thought. If you want an extra layer, we can add a camera on the gate so you can see who is there before you open from inside the house.
