Why Choose Automated Boom and Barrier Gates?
Automated boom gates are one of the most effective ways to control vehicle access while maintaining efficient traffic flow. They are ideal for sites that require secure entry and exit points without obstructing pedestrian movement or wasting valuable space.
Our boom and barrier gates are commonly used in car parks, warehouses, hospitals, industrial estates, caravan parks, airports, and distribution centres, where high cycle rates and reliability are essential.
Built from heavy-duty materials and equipped with industrial-grade motors, our systems offer smooth, fast operation, excellent resistance to weather, and integration with modern access control platforms.
How Do Automated Boom Gates Work?
An automated boom gate consists of a motor body, control cabinet, and an extendable arm designed to raise and lower to allow or restrict vehicle movement. The system is powered by 240V AC or 24V / Solar, depending on site requirements.
The automation uses a geared motor that lifts the boom arm via a crank or linkage mechanism, ensuring stable movement and long service life. In high-traffic or restricted spaces, articulated boom arms can be used to lift the gate vertically where ceiling clearance is limited.
Boom gates can also be synchronised in pairs for dual-lane or extra-wide entrances, providing efficient control for large facilities.
What is Required in an Automated Boom or Barrier Gate System?
Foundations
A reinforced concrete base is required to securely anchor the boom cabinet and support the counterweight mechanism. Power and control conduits are installed beneath the pad for a clean and protected setup.
Gate Design
Boom gates are engineered for both performance and visual appeal. We offer:
- Straight arm or articulated arm configurations
- Lengths up to 8 metres depending on model and site layout
- Powder-coated finishes in safety colours or custom branding
Power Supply
Boom and barrier systems can be powered by mains electricity (240V AC) or low-voltage 24V setups. For remote or temporary sites, solar-powered configurations are available. All systems can include battery backup to maintain functionality during power outages.
Automation and Access Control
Our boom gates can integrate with a wide range of access control technologies, including:
- RFID card and tag readers
- Wireless and wired keypads
- Ticket dispensers and pay-on-exit systems
- Vehicle induction loops and automatic number plate recognition (ANPR)
- Intercom and phone access systems
- Integration with building management and security systems
Applications
Our commercial boom and barrier systems are ideal for:
- Car parks and parking stations
- Warehouses and logistics centres
- Hospitals and universities
- Office and retail complexes
- Airports and government facilities

We ensure your boom or barrier gate system operates safely for both vehicles and pedestrians in all traffic conditions.
Maintenance and Preventative Care
We offer Preventative Maintenance Agreements (PMAs) to help commercial clients keep their boom gates operating safely and efficiently. Regular servicing reduces downtime, extends equipment life, and ensures compliance with safety requirements.
