I choose DC Moto because my gate is the folding type. It allows the folding gate panels to be close together when fully opened; thus having a larger effective opening width. If I was to use the use the telescopic arm type, it could reduce the opening width due to the arm between the gate panels.
I believe there are other brands...

Already PM you the supplier's contact.

Hi Kelvln,
PM me the contact of your Autogate installer too. Could let me know the price roughly?

PM sent

Thanks, kelvyn.i had call and ask them to instll the stopper only then I pay them.

What the distance between your two panel after folding???
My after folding taken around 1.5Feets

I did not really measured mine. But don't think it takes up 1.5ft. 1.5ft is quite a lot.
From what I have asked around and own analysis, the effective gate opening width is depended on the mechanism of the auto gate (arm or the level type) and also how the gate is being fabricated (the hinge between the 2 gate panels)

Anyway in my case, the attachment mechanism at the gate was installed on the side of the gate panel. If it was installed to the bottom of the gate, the gap between the gate panels will be even closer. Anyway the difference is quite marginal. My reason of not attaching to the bottom is because this will require the removal of the tile skirting at the pillars (which was done earlier) as the controlling gear/ motor will need to be lower.

Thanks for the info bro. Will contact them soon. Appreciate ya input. God bless!

guys,

is all gate can pasang autogate? mine is swing type. I know, there is swing type auto gate but i wonder if design of gate limits the autogate functionality.

May I know what's the price for auto gate motor and cabeling for the brand Celmer? My autogate got problem just after installing for 2 weeks (alignment haywire and insensitive remote control) and I wonder if I was given an inferior brand. My neighbour installed their autogate for cheaper price and no problem at all with their autogate.

How much the total installation? Most likely is installer problem.

RM1800, just the motor and cabels.

If the cables include installation than is cheap. Hacking and installing armor cable can be from 400 to 1k depend on site.

What is the brand? You should call back the installer and check.

The brand is Celmer. Yeah, install cable from switch inside my house to the gate pillar. Use back my old gate without doing the bearing.

My neighbour did for RM1700 and include bearing. I don't mind the fact that I pay more than my neighbours but I'm starting to wonder whether I'm paying the price for what I get? Or I was over quote?

So far, comparing theirs to mine, I noticed their gate open and close quite smoothly, remote can be sensed from far. Mine : open and close very slow and now left hand side became slower so currently looks very imbalance. When I press my remote to 'open' then try to press again to 'stop', the gate don't respond to stop immediately. Need to press one more time, only it will respond.

You need to have bearing, if not the gate will not close or open smooth (especially when gate is heavy) Better ask the installer come and check.

How is your remote look like? I have 7 remote with me , 4 are dip switch, 3 are copy. The copy type will respond slower.

Don't compare price. We can always find cheaper after we brought the things.

Agreed bro, once compare sure kns one LoL btw the 4 with dip switch one come in package with they autogate when you install? I am also looking for autogate, after read through this thread, seems like I am getting nothing

Think it come with 3.

I am setting it identical to my mom house, so I use one remote for 2 houses. Previously, my mom house I brought some extra remote @ Lelong. That is how I have so many now
