GATE ACCESSORIES AND WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

GATE ACCESSORIES

What Are Gate Accessories?

Gate accessories are essential components that enhance the functionality, convenience, and safety of your automated gate system. Whether you're installing a new gate or repairing an existing one, integrating the right accessories ensures a more seamless and user-friendly experience.

Common gate accessories include:

  • Remote controls

  • Electronic keypads

  • Card readers

  • Underground loop sensors

  • Intercom systems

  • Battery backups

 

Each of these devices plays a key role in how your system operates—from controlling access to ensuring safety during power outages. At Elite-Gates, we offer a wide range of gate accessories specifically chosen to boost your system’s performance, reliability, and ease of use.

These accessories can be:

  • Mounted directly on or near the gate

  • Installed within the gate motor housing

  • Connected wirelessly via Wi-Fi or RF signals

 

Whether you're looking to improve everyday functionality or increase security, these accessories are more than just add-ons—they're an integral part of a well-designed gate automation system.

TOP ACCESSORIES TO CONSIDER

  1. Remote Controls
    Remote controls are a standard feature included with most new gate installations. For added security, consider upgrading to a rolling code remote, which changes the access code with each use to prevent signal duplication and unauthorized entry.

  2. Smartphone Control Apps
    Managing your gate through a smartphone app offers both convenience and enhanced security. These apps allow you to open or close your gate remotely, monitor its status, and grant access to guests even when you're not on site.

  3. Keypads
    Keypads give you controlled access with programmable entry codes. Models vary in durability, features, and memory capacity, but all provide a convenient way to add or delete codes as needed—ideal for managing access without handing out physical devices.

  4. Battery Backup Systems
    Power outages shouldn’t leave you stranded. A battery backup system ensures your gate continues to operate when the electricity goes out, avoiding the inconvenience and potential risk of being locked in—or out—of your property.

  5. Proximity Card Readers
    Ideal for apartment complexes and commercial properties, proximity card readers allow for quick, contactless access. Cards can be easily added or deactivated, and many systems support computer integration, enabling access control across multiple entry points from a single system.

  6. Maglocks (Magnetic Locks)
    Magnetic locks provide an extra layer of security by physically securing the gate in place. These locks are only released via authorized devices like remotes, keypads, or emergency switches. We typically install maglocks rated to withstand up to 1,300 lbs of force, ensuring your gate stays firmly locked unless access is granted.
