Kits4Gates

There are lots of reasons why automatic and electric gate openers are becoming increasingly necessary and desirable.  A key element is, of course, security and controlled access, but gate automation also offers greatly increased ease of access and can improve the look of your home or premises.
 
Based in Leicester, Kits4Gates offer an extensive range of automated gate and electric gate kits, as well as access controls and accessories.  Additionally, we are able to provide quotations if you need help with your installation or would simply prefer someone else to do the work.
 
At Kits4Gates we care about excellent service and therefore only sell kits from manufacturers who have a UK base.  Our standards are high and our prices competitive.  We have a UK-based helpline and offer free delivery on orders over £50.
 
You will be impressed by the range of gate automotive systems at Kits4Gates.  We offer both above and underground automated gate kits, kits for sliding and swing gates, wrought iron gates, wood gates, aluminium gates, garden and driveway gates and more.  All our kits come with a minimum 2 year guarantee.  We are confident you will appreciate the functionality, reliability and durability of our systems.

Above Ground Automatic Single Gate Kits

At Kits4Gates we offer an extensive range of above ground automated gate kits, suitable for use with single gates.  For example, the LEB Tiny 230v makes an excellent starter automation system which will open and close a gate leaf of up to 4m long, with a weight of up to 250kg, making it ideal for home use.  At the other end of the spectrum is the extremely sturdy BFT P45S kit, which is used primarily in commercial and industrial applications.  The hydraulic operator has a pulling force of 8500N, making it strong enough to handle large gates and/or gates operated in windy conditions.  There are lots of kits in between these two, so you can find the one best suited to your application.

Above Ground Automatic Kits for Pairs of Gates

We have available a wide range of automated kits, specifically for use with pairs of gates.  You are sure to find something suitable for your application; from the LEB Tiny which operates a gate leaf up to 4m long, through to self-locking electro-mechanical systems to sturdy hydraulic operators for heavy duty applications and in areas where gates are threatened by wind.  Our range includes gate automations suitable for a variety of uses including wrought iron and wrought iron ornamental gates, metal gates, timber gates,  wooden gates, palisade gates and more.  The choice available means you will find the best  kit for your needs.

Underground Electric Single Gate Kits

Underground electric gate kits are for use in damp below ground conditions.  Manufactured to the highest quality, these kits are resistant to underground conditions and offer reliability and durability.  The range of kits available for use with single gates extends from the LEB Stone 230v kit, which operates gate leafs up to 2500mm long, right through to a range of hydraulic underground operators designed for domestic and commercial use.  There’s plenty in between these models, so you can be assured of finding the right fit for your needs.  All our underground electric kits are sturdy and long lasting to resist the difficulties of below ground conditions.

Underground Electric Kits for Pairs of Gates

Special attention to design and manufacture is required when making electric gate kits that are to be installed underground, where damp conditions would compromise anything that was not ultra-sturdy and reliable.  Additionally, underground kits offer an inconspicuous system, which can prove an aesthetic bonus.  Our range of kits for use with pairs of gates is extensive and includes self-locking electro-mechanical operators, used primarily in domestic applications.  There are heavy duty systems designed to automate heavy gates.  These systems are used mainly in commercial applications or when there are a number of users.  At the top of the range is the very popular ‘Frog’ automation system, which is suitable for most types of gates.  The Frog is designed for heavy use and to provide maximum safety in both domestic and commercial use.

Sliding Electric Gate Openers

The advantage of sliding gate openers is that they take up less room so are ideal when your entrance has limited available space.  Designed and manufactured to the highest quality to provide function and reliability, our range includes a 230v sliding motor kit suitable for domestic gates weighing up to 500kg.  There is also a multi-user 24v operator which will handle gates of up to 100kg, with a range of safety features.  So when your gates are near pedestrian traffic, this is the system to choose.  Finally, we offer a commercially rated heavy duty sliding gate which will cope with loads of up to 2000kg.

Access Controls

All our access controls can be incorporated into existing or new automatic gate systems.  Choose from our range of intercoms/keypads.  We have key switches, audio and wireless intercoms, keypad intercoms and a system which shows your visitors on a high quality video screen.  Our remote controls are suitable for use with most makes of gate automation systems.  If you’re not sure which remote will suit your system we can advise.  We also hold a large stock selection of vehicle detection sensors, utilising state of the art computer controlled design.  All our access control kits are designed and manufactured to exacting quality standards to provide you with reliable access to your automated gate system.
