Gate automation in Tallinn and Harjumaa
Motors, safety sensors and remote control for sliding and swing gates. Drive chosen after the site visit.
Why automation
Secure entry without leaving the car
A good gate automation is not just a motor. This is the correct drive for the gate weight, the correct foundation or post load, safety sensors and an electrical connection that meets the requirements.
We will come, check the gate type, opening direction and power option. Only then will we determine the device and the price — so that the system works smoothly even in cold and damp conditions.
Gate types
Sliding gate or swing gate — which is suitable?
The space, the width of the driveway and the weight of the gate determine the drive. Below is an honest comparison before visiting the object.
| Type | An advantage | A requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Sliding gate | Space-saving, smooth opening | The foundation carries the rail and the load |
| Wing gate | Classic entrance with two wings | Poles deeply concreted (drive force) |
| Both of them | Remote control, obstacle detection | Correct power supply + safety sensors |
Safety and electrical connection
What must be in order before launch
Automation without safety is dangerous. We don't leave sensors or power "for later".
- Obstacle detectionThe gate stops or reverses when a person, animal or vehicle is in the way.
- Correct power supplyThe connection of the outdoor device must meet the requirements of the electrical installation — we work with a certified electrician.
- Stable baseThe sliding gate has a good foundation; deep concrete posts on the swing gate.
Installation · Harjumaa
How is work going
Installation in five steps
From object evaluation to handover — each step must be ready for the previous one.
Evaluation of the object
Gate type, weight, opening direction, power supply and safety requirements. We recommend a suitable drive.
Price quote
Clear offer after site inspection — equipment, labor and necessary extras.
Base and mechanics
If necessary, foundation or post reinforcement, rails, hinges and locking.
Drive, sensors and electrical connection
Motor installation, photocells or servo contacts, remote control — electricity with a certified partner.
Testing and handover
We will go through the system with you, set the forces and times and give a 3-year warranty.
In addition
Foot gate, locks and fence as a whole
Automation works best when the fence, gate and lock are in one system. We also offer the installation of a pedestrian gate and code locks — the entrance for pedestrians remains separate from vehicle traffic.
- Foot gates for separate pedestrians
- Code locks and galvanized fasteners
- Fence construction from the same team
The most common mistake
A cheaper motor is put on a too heavy gate or the safety sensors are left out. Result: overheating, false alarms or dangerous shutdown. We select the drive by weight and safety is part of the offer.
Does gate automation need an electrical project?
Yes — the power and control connection of the outdoor unit must meet the requirements of the electrical installation. We work with a certified electrician to ensure that the connection is correct and documented.
How long does the gate automation last?
With proper installation and regular maintenance 10-15 years. The manufacturer's warranty for motors is usually 2-5 years; we give 3 years for our installation work.
Can automation be added to an existing gate?
Often yes — if the posts, hinges or slide are strong enough. We assess on site whether reinforcement or new mechanics are needed before installing the drive.
Do you also make the whole fence with the gate?
Yes. Look garden construction service — fence, gate and automation from one partner.

Does the gate automation installation need an electrical project?
Yes, the power and control connection of the outdoor unit must meet the requirements of the electrical installation. We work with a certified electrician.
How long does the gate automation last?
10-15 years with proper installation and regular maintenance. Motors are usually guaranteed for 2-5 years; we give 3 years for our work.
What is the cheapest mistake in automation?
Motor too weak for a heavy gate or failure of safety sensors. This shortens life and creates a hazard. We choose the drive based on weight, and safety is part of the solution.
Can I pay in installments?
Yes — construction and woodwork can be paid with ESTO installments. Look installment payment information.
