Gate Motor Installation
New Centurion motors fitted to your gate, sized right, set up properly, and running from day one. Prices from R6 600 installed.
What Goes Into a Proper Install
A good install is the difference between a gate that runs quietly for years and one that gives trouble from the first month. Here is what we fit and set up on every job.
A motor sized to your gate
We weigh up your gate first and pick a Centurion that pulls it with room to spare. A motor that never strains is a motor that lasts.
Backup battery fitted as standard
Your gate still opens when the power is out. Every install comes with a backup battery, so load shedding never leaves you locked in or stuck on the driveway.
Rack, base plate, and two remotes
The standard install includes a 4 metre rack, a solid base plate, and two remotes set up and ready. Everything you need to use the gate from the first day.
Anti-theft bracket option
Gate motor theft is a real problem here. We fit a heavy steel bracket and lock around the motor so yours stays exactly where you put it.
Safety beams to stop accidents
Infrared beams sit across the gate opening and catch a car or a person, stopping the gate from closing on them. Worth fitting if you have kids or pets at home.
Keypad and intercom add-ons
Want to open the gate with a code, or see who is at the gate before you let them in? We can add a keypad or a video intercom while we are there.
We Fit Motors on Every Type of Gate
Sliding, swing, or a big gate at a complex or business. We have the right motor for each one.
Sliding gates
Most homes here run a sliding gate. We fit the motor, lay the rack along the gate, and set the travel so it opens far enough and stops in the right spot on every cycle.
Swing gates
Single or double swing gates get their own ram-style motors. We mount them level, set the open and close angles, and make sure both leaves move together without grinding.
Commercial and estate gates
Gates at complexes, businesses, and estates open far more often. We fit heavy-duty motors built for that daily traffic and wire them into your access control.
The Centurion Smart Range
We fit the full Centurion Smart line, from a small home gate to a heavy industrial one. Every price below covers the motor, a 4m rack, a base plate, two remotes, and the install. The right one for you comes down to how heavy your gate is.
Centurion D3 Smart
A solid, good-value choice for a normal home gate. You get the 4m rack, base plate, and two remotes, all fitted and tested.
Centurion D5 Evo Smart
Our most popular home motor. It runs quiet and quick, and it links up easily with an intercom or CCTV later on.
Centurion D6 Smart
Built for busy gates at complexes and multi-unit stands where the gate opens all day. It handles the extra traffic without trouble.
Centurion D10 Smart
A heavy-duty motor for long, heavy gates. Strong enough for large homes and commercial entrances that get plenty of use.
Centurion D20 Smart
The workhorse of the range. Made for the biggest gates on industrial sites that open and close all day, every day.
Anti-Theft Bracket
A heavy steel cage and lock around the motor. With gate motor theft on the rise, this is one of the cheapest ways to protect your new setup.
Prices are a starting point for a standard install. The final figure depends on your gate, the cabling run, and any extras like a keypad or intercom. You get the exact number on the free site visit, with nothing owed until you say go ahead.
How We Get Your Gate Running
Four simple steps, from the first visit to the moment your gate is running on its own.
Free on-site visit
We come out, look at your gate, check how it runs, and measure up. Then we tell you which motor suits it and what the job will cost. The visit costs you nothing.
A clear, fixed quote
You get the full price in writing. The motor, the rack, the battery, the remotes, and the labour are all listed. The number you see is the number you pay.
Neat installation
Our team sets the foundation, fits the rack, wires it in, and mounts the motor with an anti-theft bracket. We keep the work tidy and stay out of your way.
Setup and handover
We program your remotes, line up the safety beams, and run the gate a few times to be sure. Then we show you how it all works, including the manual release.
Your New Gate Has to Cope With Load Shedding
A gate motor in Gauteng lives a hard life. The power comes and goes all day, and that is often the exact moment you need the gate to open. We plan for that on every single install.
Every motor we fit gets a backup battery, so the gate keeps working right through an outage. The Centurion Smart range draws very little power, which gives you a good run of open and close cycles on battery alone.
We also fit surge protection on the supply. When the power snaps back on, that spike can kill an unprotected control board. A small bit of protection up front saves you a call-out down the line.
Backup battery as standard
You never get stuck at the gate. It runs off its own battery whenever Eskom is off.
Surge protection on the mains
We guard the control board against the spikes that hit when the power comes back on.
Low-draw Smart motors
The Centurion Smart range is gentle on the battery, so it lasts longer between charges.
Why People Pick Us to Fit Their Gate
We size the motor right the first time
A motor that is too small burns out early. We weigh your gate properly and fit one that opens it with room to spare.
One clear price, fitted and done
The quote covers the motor, the rack, the battery, the remotes, and the labour. No surprise extras once the work has started.
