Automatic barrier installation, servicing and repairs

Install a new vehicle barrier

We survey your entrance and plan the barrier position, operating controls and access arrangements around your site traffic.

Upgrade an existing barrier

We review existing equipment and discuss options for replacing the barrier or updating how vehicles enter and exit.

Servicing and fault finding

We can assess barriers that stop opening or closing reliably and agree planned servicing for one site or across your estate.

How automatic barrier installation works

Tell us about your entrance

Share the postcode, a photo of the entrance and whether you need a new barrier or support with an existing one.

Arrange a site survey

We review lane width, traffic flow, pedestrian routes, power and any existing controls.

Review your quote

We set out the equipment, access controls and what site preparation is included.

Install and hand over

We agree timings, test the setup and show your team how to operate the barrier and report faults.

Choose how vehicles get in

We can discuss fobs or keypads for regular users, intercoms for visitors and deliveries, and number plate recognition (ANPR) where suitable. The survey helps us agree how users should enter and exit, including what happens at busy times.

Commercial security barrier FAQs

What affects the price of an automatic car park barrier?

Lane width, how often it will operate, site preparation, power and the chosen entry controls all affect the quote.

Can you repair a barrier installed by another company?

We can assess it. Share the make and model, the fault and any service records you have. We’ll confirm what we can support once we have reviewed the equipment.

Can an automatic barrier use an intercom or number plates?

Yes, where the equipment is compatible. We’ll agree how visitors, staff and deliveries should use the entrance.

Can you service barriers across multiple sites?

Yes. Send the site list and information about the barriers so we can discuss a maintenance schedule.

Do you install barriers in Manchester and Stockport?

Yes. We support sites across Greater Manchester and Cheshire from Cheadle Hulme, and can scope projects for UK-wide estates.
