Before comparing

Get the right motor for your gate.

Gate weight, opening length, daily traffic and mechanical condition matter as much as the brand. A gate that drags or binds should be corrected before a new motor is fitted.

Gate size and movement

We assess weight, travel, wheels, track or hinges and the effort needed to move the gate.

Usage and controls

A family driveway and a busy shared entrance have different demands. Include your remote and access requirements.

Complete installed cost

Power distance, extra rack, gate repairs, safety beams and access equipment can affect the total.

What comes with our installation service.

Major local brands

Supply and installation

Motor selection and fitting are quoted together, with the scope explained before work begins.

Product warranty

Free site assessment

We assess the gate and installation needs before recommending a suitable setup.

07 / Understand the quote

Why installed costs differ.

The motor model is only one part of the total. Gate size, mechanical condition, daily usage and the distance to a suitable power supply all influence the work required.

A replacement installation may reuse suitable infrastructure. A new installation can require mounting, wiring, rack and other components from the start.

Retail promotions may show a lower motor-only price. Compare the complete kit and installed total, including batteries, rack, brackets, controls and any electrical work.

08 / Frequently asked questions

Choose with clearer information.

Does the advertised price include installation?

Yes. The motor packages on this page include installation. Power cabling and other additional work should be confirmed separately on the written quote.

Do you sell motors without installation?

The current service offering is complete supply and installation. Ask us for a package matched to your gate.

What if I already own a motor?

The source guide gives customer-supplied installation labour at R1,350–R2,500 in its FAQ. Contact us before buying to confirm compatibility, required components and current service availability.

Which gate motor brand should I choose?

The source highlights Centurion Smart systems and Gemini. The right choice also depends on gate condition, capacity, daily use, controls and available support. We can compare suitable options for your property.

What warranty applies?

How long can a gate motor last?

Is help available after the warranty ends?

Yes. The current page describes ongoing maintenance, fault finding and repair support beyond the warranty period.

How much is power cabling?
