A newbie question here.

We r planning to install a folding automate. Are the gate and the autogate moto/system installed by different installers? We were quoted rm3,800 for powder coated wrought iron with autogate for a 15.5 ft. Is this ok?

Thanks.

Tired for survey.....just need any recommend from sifu here.......by the way autogate malaysia sales person damn lansi....sorry to say they miss one genuine buyer....sigh

someone mentioned in previous post that he got 1.3k for supply & install. You could try reading up the previous post.

eh bro where is your location? my installer also saying the same thing, DCMoto better than D'Nor LoL

icic, I am from melaka one my installer recommend these 2 brands to me and told me DCMoto is more reliable than the D'Nor, duno how true is that I also go for DCMoto, the keypad really looks cool, u control ur pillar light with the keypad?

Yupe bro, the D'Nor brochure looks not convincing as well, the DCMoto one informative enough , I am using 12 cores armored cable too but without the doorbell show us some photo after u install bro , are u going to get the IR Beam sensor?

Just something that you may want to take into consideration..
You are staying in Klang while the installer is far away...
After sales service... how?
Response time and charges per trip.... 

I think you are considering the same supplier as I am loking at from Melaka. I also worry about the after sales service. From what they told me they will give 3 free after sales service in the 1st year but after that i dont know lor.

Can i ask why arent you continue with OEM? Please let me what your friend has to offer for  DC Moto once you have met him pls. TQ

I find Pasar Rd. a good place to source for CCTV components.  If you're doing the installation yourself make sure you get good quality cables and connectors. Try to get a single dedicated power supply to provide DC to all your cameras and avoid the individual plug-in power supplies which tends to be unreliable.
Yes, you can save a lot if you do the installation yourself or at least engage an electrician to run the cabling for you instead of using a CCTV installer.

Out of these options the only useful one is the Remote.
The Safety beam sensor always gets confused during heavy rain
The siren horn I really don't see the point.

One useful feature that some remotes have is a main-switch bypass. I.e. if you're going out and you don't want to allow your maid to open the door from within the house, you can activate the main-switch by-pass via the remote.

Bro, mind sharing the nice price for Casa Asia as well? Where is ya friend located and did he mentioned what after sales he gives?
Anyway, apart from being a little silent than DCMOTO, what other features does it have, eg. anti-spy remote, etc?
Have you decide yet which brand and model you get?

Added on February 23, 2012, 12:41 pmAnyone here uses or used Casa Asia S-320H autogate? Pls share ya experience. Tq.

Thanks for ya reply.
Yup, i didnt see it in Casa website as well about any anti-spy remote but the rest looks the same as DCMOTO. But the 2 year warranty is value for money for me. Did ya friend say what does the warranty cover?

Lighting will not be cover for any warranty unless stated. This is common. Also got human error it will not be cover. Like bang and push open the gate and broke the arms or gear box all this will not be cover.

Does anyone know on which company that does the gate and auto gate system apart from Unigate ?

CASA is definitely made in Penang. Not KL.
Whether they will honor 3 years warranty on lightning strike you have to make reference checks with their customers.
I think most installers now will offer 3 years warranty for a slight premium which would be still less than RM2,200.  If your area is not prone to lightning strike (e.g. no on hilltop, no an isolate tall structure, not have prominent lights above pillars etc) the probability of a lightning strike is very remote.  My parents place has been using autogates for the past 20 years and we've never had a single failure due to lightning strike

Usually, pay peanuts get monkey, especially in the city...
If too cheap, chances of hit and run high.
Get installers that has been in the business long.
Chances of bad  ethics should be less.

Just to share....This guy, Winson offered RM1600 for DCMOTO with 2 yrs warranty. Seems to have good reviews in forum for home security system. Im meeting him next saturday. His website, http://ots2u.com/index.php. He also can get Casa Asia for RM1800 but i didnt go into details yet. He is located in Sri Kembangan
