Expert boom gate installation ensures security and efficiency for your commercial needs, so explore our range of automatic boom gates and barrier systems today.
Boom gates, or boom barriers, are familiar to most of us as the mechanical devices used to control the movement of vehicles and their access to specific areas. A horizontal bar or pole is raised/lowered manually or automatically to permit or restrict entry as required. Some of the primary features and benefits of a barrier boom gate include:
Automatic boom gates provide an ideal security and access control solution for businesses of all kinds. They are indispensable in regulating vehicle access at industrial facilities, commercial premises, parking lots, gated communities, and many other locations.
A barrier boom gate is a common sight in a wide range of commercial, corporate, public, residential, and government facilities, providing:
Automatic boom gates are a must-have element in retail centre car parks, office complexes, and secure private residential compounds.
By integrating with access control systems, an automatic boom barrier gate is the ideal security solution for industrial sites. It can record each vehicle that passes, enhancing transportation and logistical data when calculating everything from delivery times to the frequency of visitors and more.
Expert installation services, like those provided by Complete Entrance Solutions, are critical to ensure proper boom gate functionality, safety, and security. Please contact the team today for further information and an obligation-free quote for our services.

With professional boom gate installation and sufficient, targeted maintenance, a high-quality boom gate should last five to fifteen years.
Automatic boom gates operate using the following combination of mechanical and electronic components:
Automatic boom gates are designed to be easily integrated into modern access control systems. This allows access to be controlled in several ways, from ID tags and cards to keypads and even biometric scanners.
The system prepares to raise the barrier when active sensors detect a vehicle approaching the boom gate. Some standard sensors include infrared sensors, ground loops, and motion detectors.
If valid credentials or security parameters are met, the control unit processes the sensor signal and instructs the motor to raise the barrier.
A boom gate mechanism typically includes pulleys, counterweights, and gears to facilitate smooth, efficient operation. An electric motor drives the mechanism to raise and lower the boom as required.
Modern boom gates have obstacle-detection sensors that prevent the bar from lowering if something or someone is blocking its path.
Sensors register the departure of a vehicle once it has safely passed through the boom gate. The control unit then signals the motor, and the boom is lowered, resetting the system in preparation for the following vehicle.
The typical lifespan of an automatic boom gate is affected by several factors, as follows:
Higher quality components and materials usually mean an extended barrier boom gate lifespan.
Boom gates in constant or frequent use naturally experience increased wear and tear.
Regular, effective maintenance significantly impacts the lifespan of any automatic boom barrier gate. Some crucial maintenance requirements include appropriate lubrication, timely repairs, and regular cleaning to remove dirt and debris.
Harsh weather conditions and extremes of temperature and humidity can adversely affect the durability of a boom gate, especially if it is not regularly maintained.
Where integrity meets work ethic success is found.
