check these out

http://www.dcmoto.com.my/gfm725_905_2.html

I am having the 4 buttons remote.
1. open and close both gates
2. Open left gate
3. Open right gate
4. Spare - which is connected to control the pillar lights
As for the sensor, my guess is that they could be covered with dust (you know out air pollution la...) and thus becomes unreliable.

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.

You could ask your auto gate installer to place a rubber stopper at both the pillars. Problem solved. biggrin.gif

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

No worry. I have many installers know DCMoto autogate. Just this one give me better price...  tongue.gif  As least it's still under warranty, I don't think the installer will charge me on this. Right?

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.

Yup. I think we have the same supplier, but I still haven't decide not until I meet up with my friend who is carry this model as well. In fact, Autogate system less issue one at least my current house OAE Arm Type served me for more than 6 years without any issue. I just just change the battery & remote panel board before.

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

Spoke with my friend just now. Got the quote for DCMoto 905 with alarm. Nice price I would say.

But he recommended me Casa Asia S-320H comes with 2 years warranty. Different by RM150 only. Somemore said DCMoto copy theirs. Dunno true or not?
*
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.

RM150 different than DCMoto, you do the math.  tongue.gif In fact, this is my friend contact, mean I haven't meet him in person. Moreover, my house is just started renovation. So, have to wait at least 3 months from now then I can install the autogate system.

Which one I choose? DCMoto 1 year warranty but Casa Asia 2 years warranty. Plus silent motor.  What do you think with RM150 different? About the Anti-Spy remote... I see the Casa Asia remote control is same like DCMoto but this didn't mentioned in Casa Asia website. So I can't confirm, may be people who install this can share info to us?  smile.gif

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?

Got a quote from Santronec Automation Supply for CASA-ASIA...RM2220!!! Said they make CASA themselves 's n based in Tropicana. Apparently the price is steep coz its 3 yrs warranty on motor n lifetime for lightning strike. Ashed why some others advert less, he said maybe warranty period in less than 3 yrs etc. What I like is that he will only come over to check the gate first to see if it was installed propoery then only confirm the autogate. said many gates are mainly the folding gate are not installed propoerly n can cause damage.
Anyone in the forum has engaged Santronic before? Pls share

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
*
yup, its made in penang but the company is here in kl. He also mentioned that CASA n DCMOTO is same-same but different. Anyway, the 3 yrs warranty is only for motor n lightning strike is lifetime. But, every1 is rite, i also never heard of autogate damage by lightning.
On warranty, he mentioned that if the compnay carries spare parts and wld be able to repair on the spot but DCMOTO if damage the whole motor would be shipped to penang for repairs...which means ya hse wld not autogate for 1-3 weeks. DCMOTO users, is this true?

Guess what? I met the same autogate installer that was complained above today! He knows about the comment made in the other forum but said that it was customer fault. Apparently, the cusotmer pressed the remote button (dunno la what button) too long and triggered the auto lock switch. Dunno to belif or not. But yes, he promised in writinig 3 yrs warranty for motor, 1 year for control panel, and lifetime warranty for lightning. But his price is killer despite having the same function as DCMOTO basic model rclxub.gif

Met winson today.

DC Moto premium is out of stock and he only carries basic and standard type for now. For MYR1600, can get the standard type but  minus the panic button function. Need to add MYR200 for that function.
Perhaps a group purchase can lower the price.

Darn it. I thought could get premium at RM1600. Did he say when stock available?

I didnt ask him yesterday but perhaps you can ask him when you meet him this saturday since I got the impression that it is so much more expensive.
From what I understand, the difference between the standard and premium is only on the photobeam sensor.

Maybe a group purchase will help to get us a better price.

IC. What do guys think about Casa Asia autogate? Only 1 forumer here has experience using it and is happy with it. Lets hope for the best this saturday.
