Commercial Automated Barriers, Turnstiles, Bollards & Height Restrictors

If your entrance does not need the security of a gate but rather the monitoring and regulating of the traffic then a barrier would be suited to your site. There are many options available to suit all budgets and uses, with optional extras of skirts, lighting and signs. For the security, control and monitoring of pedestrian access, we install turnstiles to your site that can link to your existing access control if required. We can also install automated retractable bollards and automated height restrictors to give you more control of your security and where vehicles can go on your premises.

Repairs & Call Outs

If you have an issue or breakdown with your gate or barrier and you need to book an experienced engineer then please call 01733 204990 to discuss. Outside of working hours, please email sales@a1fencing.co.uk .

Our engineers are out on site daily and have extensive knowledge of systems working with a wide range of automation manufacturers.

We aim to respond to your call/email as quickly as possible. We can often change replacement parts on site or provide a quotation for repair works(includes 12 months warranty on new parts only).

We know how inconvenient and frustrating it can be when your gate breaks down so we have a few check points that might help:

  • To isolate the power to your gates (must be carried out prior to any works), use your rotary isolator within the gate control cabinet.
  • We would recommend manually releasing your gate which should have been explained to you when the gate was installed using your manual release key. (Or refer to the manual)
  • Once released, check gate leaf runs freely.
  • Please also check your photocells to ensure they are not obstructed by vegetation or dirty. Wipe with a cloth and dry if necessary.
  • Check batteries in hand held remotes.
