Our Installation Process

We follow a structured approach to ensure your residential electric gate is installed with precision and care. Our comprehensive process combines thoughtful planning, thorough preparation, and expert execution to deliver gate systems that provide security, convenience, and aesthetic appeal.

Initial Consultation

We begin every installation project with a detailed consultation to understand your specific needs. Our team visits your property to assess the layout, taking precise measurements of the driveway width, available space, and existing structures.



During this phase, we discuss your preferences regarding gate style, material options, and automation features. Popular choices include swing gates for traditional aesthetics and sliding gates for properties with limited space.


We consider essential factors like:


  • Traffic volume and frequency of use
  • Weather conditions in Newport Beach
  • Required security level
  • Aesthetic compatibility with your home

On-Site Preparations

Before installation day, we conduct thorough site preparations to ensure a smooth process. Our team marks utility lines and identifies potential underground obstacles to prevent any service disruptions.


We establish a safe work zone with proper barriers and signage to protect both our technicians and your property. This preparation phase includes:


  • Creating proper drainage solutions to prevent water damage
  • Securing necessary permits from Newport Beach authorities
  • Verifying electrical requirements for automation systems
  • Preparing the foundation for gate posts


Safety remains our top priority throughout the preparation process. We ensure all electrical components meet or exceed local codes and safety standards.

Professional Installation

On installation day, our certified technicians arrive with all necessary equipment and materials. We begin by establishing solid foundations for your gate posts, ensuring they're perfectly aligned and secure.


The gate framework is then carefully mounted, with special attention to proper balance and clearance. Our technicians install all motorization components, including:


  • Control panels and circuit boards
  • Safety sensors and obstacle detection
  • Battery backup systems
  • Access control devices (keypads, intercoms, etc.)


We connect and test all electrical components, ensuring smooth operation under various conditions. Each installation undergoes rigorous quality checks to verify both functionality and safety.
