This project involved the supply, installation and commissioning of a custom single swing gate at a Perth residential property, including integrated letterbox, 24V gate automation and 240V power supply works.
AGM Automation completed the full scope including fabrication, installation, automation, electrical works, testing and final handover.
A single swing gate installation generally includes:
The final scope depends on site conditions, power availability and whether the system needs to integrate with intercoms or access control equipment.
For this project, AGM completed the entire installation from post setting through to final client handover.
AGM supplied and installed a custom single swing gate designed to suit the property.
The gate featured:
The gate was supported by:
The timber-look slatted finish provided a modern street-facing appearance while avoiding the maintenance requirements associated with real timber.
Gate automation was provided using a 24V 415 FAAC single swing operator kit paired with a E124 control board.
The system included:
AGM also installed a 240V mains power supply to the gate location to power the automation system.
Where power is not already available at the gate location, trenching, boring or cabling works are often required as part of the installation scope.
Most residential automated swing gates use:
Safety beams are required to detect obstructions and help prevent gate contact during operation.
The E124 control system also allows for future upgrades including:
without replacing the existing control board.
The completed installation included:
The property now has a fully operational automated single swing gate system with integrated letterbox and compliant safety setup.
Most single swing gate installations are completed within one to two days, depending on site conditions and electrical requirements.
If 240V power needs to be installed to the gate location, additional time may be required.
Custom fabricated gates are generally manufactured off-site and installed once fabrication is complete.
Yes.
Automated gates must include safety devices such as safety beams or obstruction detection systems to comply with Australian Standards.
Safety beams detect movement in the gate opening and stop or reverse the gate if required.
XP20 safety beams were installed and tested as part of this project.
Yes.
Custom fabricated gates can incorporate letterboxes directly into the gate infill panel.
For this project, AGM integrated the letterbox into the slatted infill design to maintain a clean street frontage without requiring a separate post-mounted letterbox.
Most residential swing gate operators run from a standard 240V mains supply, which is converted to low-voltage DC power through the control system.
If power is not already available at the gate location, electrical works must be included as part of the installation.
