Below are the prices I quoted locally (Melaka from a company provide alarm, autogate and cctv services), but I didnt go for it yet as still comparing

1) DC Moto 905 Motor x 2 (Left & Right Gate)
2) Antispy Remote Control x 3
3) Control Panel with PVC Box
4) Backup Battery
5) Indoor Keypad
6) Installation of autogate motor & system (without wiring)
7) Price with installation = RM 1300.

Optional item:
1) Photo Beam Sensor - RM150/pair
2) Siren horn -RM 40
3) Additional Antispy Remote - RM50/pcs
4) The lock attach at the center of the swing gate - RM300

Txs leeyung. Some of us here have contacted that company from melaka. Although the price is cheap but I think our main concern is after sales service. They mention to me that in the 1 yr warranty period they offer 3 free service. So what if problem not solve after 3 visits? N if the gate cant work, how fast would they be able to respond to your emergency?
Winson, in the other hand, is from Sri Kembangan and offers 2 yrs warranty. So if you are from the klang valley then you can easily get him.

Looks like they are selling a whole range of other office equipment (alarm, cctv, punch clock etc), just check with them and make sure that they don't outsource their installation to a third-party independent installer.

Good advise weitatt. Will defo ask Winson if he do himself or outsource. Thanks

Yeah just to share out the prices, because I quoted few companies over here, the offered prices quite consistent as what I posted Correct, main concern is after sales service because no one wish to take leave due to autogate failure

I tot normally autogate seldom create issue? At least my current OAE swing arm still operating normally after 6 years plus. Just a bit slow compared with last time.

Still can use the manual override key if the autogate got stuck...

It should be not be an issue but there have been many nightmare cases as well. So for peace of mind, I rather have a warranty from a nearby installer.

A bit expensive is okay as long as after sales service is good. Hope Winson could provide good service. Anyone engage him to do autogate before and mind to share your opinion?

Damn. my OAE swing arm just spoilt last night. After what I said... It's RELIABLE... Now the gear is no longer running even though the motor is running. I think I forget to say touch wood when I made last post... Sigh... Have contacted the autogate installer to take a look on that this afternoon.

Might get back OAE brand but heavy duty stainless arm. Lesson learnt... Never say never

OAE ok lah, at least can get parts easy.

I rest my case. Sorry to hear about ya autogate bro.

Well...what ever gate you use, please ensure it Secure at the pilley. If you does read news paper, you will noticed few cases that the Gate was falled Down and could injured or dead...

Not really. Spoke with the autogate installer. He said my model is no longer in production. So find spare part is abit hard. Hope for the best.

Nah... Bad mount I got there...

can anyone told me wat material is used for tis gate?? stainless steels???


Attached thumbnail(s)

its a mild steel....not stainless, nowaday trend using this coz its cheaper and lighter, my gate using it too , some said stainless steel have an impact on feng shui , (if a believer ) either good or bad....

stainless steel having an impact on feng shui...
Maybe that's why one of my neighbour who is a strong believer in this, changed theirs...

Frankly, don't think can get the premium for 1.6k incl installation.
Just some advertising gimmick....

yes it did ( for those believer ) coz its spark , some installed for maintenance free , no paint for several years ,
as for myself after a consult from master its not suit me , so i did my mild steel (p/s i dont like stainless steel too ) reason so outdate , but the bottom of all its depend on owner decision and perspective ,

Added on March 9, 2012, 3:28 amafter a while i follow this topic , ppl tend to compare price rather than establishment of the autogate supplier, what is RM 200 more if u got peace of mind after service, why not concern more on this that price, u may get RM 1000 DC moto gmf 905 but cost alot prob and the service below expectation as been mention b4 in several reply, remember u get what u pay

I totally agree with you on this. For products that requires servicing/ replacement, a competent and reliable after sales service suppliers should be the main concern and thus the criteria for selection. Not the saving of a RM200...

RM200 is the cost for your installer to come service the gate once or twice. many installers are engaging independent contractors to do a one time installation with no backup technicians to provide support. That's why there are so many one-man-show autogate companies which do not need an office or any full time staff to operate their business.

this is what my feedback on this agenda; price concern more important for everyone. As you said one man show, what if this one man gone after one year , whose gonna back up for any default for your gate because his/her autogate cheaper, budget indeed important to everyone but never neglect the aftersales service or the service they can provide, if the cost for installed is extra additional RM 100 or RM 200 , its ok as long the workmanship is satisfied, or else screw them up side down, this is what i told them first before purchase , consumer rite, always got tribunal,

anybody use MAG autogate here? care to comments? I was recommended to use this brand instead of DCmoto.
