Sliding Gate Motor Installation in Chennai

The most practical gate automation for Chennai homes

Most houses and compounds in Chennai have sliding gates, and a sliding gate motor is usually the simplest way to automate them: it needs no extra driveway space and works well even on slightly sloping ground. RS Technologies installs sliding gate motors for independent houses, villas, apartments, offices, schools and factories across Chennai.

Choosing the right motor

The motor must be matched to the gate. The main factors are:

• Gate weight — the most important factor; an undersized motor overheats and fails early
• Gate length and how often it opens each day — a busy apartment gate needs a heavy-duty motor
• Track condition — a bent or uneven track must be fixed first
• Power backup — battery backup keeps the gate working through power cuts

What we install with it

• Gear rack fixed along the gate
• Safety photocells that stop the gate if something is in its path
• Remote controls for each family member or resident
• Flashing warning light
• Manual release for emergencies
• Optional: RFID or mobile-app opening, and connection to your video door phone

Homes, apartments and factories

For homes, a standard residential motor with remotes is usually enough. Apartments need heavy-duty motors rated for frequent use, often with RFID tags for residents. Factories and warehouses with large, heavy gates need industrial operators — and sometimes a boom barrier for vehicle control alongside the gate.

Service and repair

We service and repair sliding gate motors of all brands, and offer pre-monsoon checks, because rain is the most common cause of breakdowns.
