I asked my wetwork contractor to check with his 2 contact regarding similar design.
It seems that the price he got was wayyyy above this price.
What done is done, just gotta move forward.

Anyway I called the gate supplier again. powder coated already.
16 feet folding gate.
4 panel, each panel 200 kg. total 800kg
So damm heavy.

Any one here can recommend a suitable autogate arm that can handle this spec.

Yup. Just have to move on... You win some, you lose some Looks like your gate is very heavy ...
Really have to get heavy duty auto gate system. Just be prepare for the price..

wah....what design will it be...please post the photo once you done.
You need a Bigger Arm, if not mistake diffrential of 1K.

So far so good. Been running about a month. Closing and opening noisy because my small gate causing the noise, not the motor.

As I'm going to do folding gate about 19" width...
My contractor tell me to redo the concrete slab part for the gate, so it'll be more compact and will not have sinking rail in future...

I also got quote for alarm + auto gate system at touching RM5k (RM2.8k alarm + RM1.8k Autogate + RM300 armed cable)

My quote for the gate with aluminium wood panel is @ RM4.5k + stainless steel rollers and 3/8" stainless steel rod rail...

Is that price around market pricing?

What model/brand the Autogate alone. Can share?

I got bronchus at house... contractor said is local brand...
Italy brand cost more than 3k...

I'll let you know the brand tomorrow...

I'm new to autogate here. Need to know form all sifus here, can I use existing cable for gate light as autogate cable. Otherwise need to hack the floor tile and plaster ceiling to pull a new wire.

there is armour cable provided in my new house but there is only 3 wires left at 1 side of the main gate and there is no control switch inside the house. one of the wireman say from the 7 cable (3 at side of the gate, 2 for pillar light, 2 for door bell). meanwhile inside the house near top of my DB there are bunch of 5 cables.

Is my house comes with autogate cable or not?

How many wires for door bell and autogate switch?


7 cables in armour cable, how its divided?

The brand is Weigand.

Thanks, I'll go check it out

How to know the cable is armour cable or normal cable? Can existing gate light cable used for autogate?

anyone knows how to "tune" the speed of opening of auto gates on the IC board?

my auto gate now will open all the way until it hit the front gate pillar or anything that blocks it. i want it to slow down and stop before hitting the pillar. anyone knows how to do this?

armour cable


& Non-armored cable

Thanks. What is the advantage of the armored cable? Can use exiting gate light cable for autogate since i don't really need
the light.

In the armored cables, the steel wires provides protection to the cable.
As for using the existing gate light cables for the auto gate, you need to check on the nos. of cores that is available. Then check with your auto gate supplier on the system requirement. Some auto gate system relies only on the remote controls. Meaning that all control is from the remote. Thus no additional wires for the control switch inside the house. So, better to check with your supplier first.

armored cable is needed to withstand the outside weather and temperature. without armored cable, your wire will become brittle over the time..

If without Armored cable, can use GI pipe, and put in the wires. It sure are better protection but is less flexible and more expensive.

yes correct. it more expensive if you use GI pipe. i bought armor cable for rm7per meter. nway just installed autogate with new gate.

main gate: 3.8k
autogate 1.2k without wiring(armor cable)

mind to share where you bought ur armour cable?
