At Brisbane Automatic Gate Systems (BAGS), we only use the highest quality motors/openers for our automated sliding gates.
Installing a sliding gate motor/opener means you no longer need to get out of your car to open your gates. This is particularly handy during bad weather or when you’re coming home late at night and want that extra level of safety and security.
Quick and easy to use
Our sliding gate motors will open your gate automatically in just a few seconds, allowing you to enter or leave your property quickly.
They’re also super-easy to use, controlled with just the click of a button.
How Much Does it Cost to Install a Gate Operator, Motor or Opener for a Sliding Gate?
The average cost of a gate operator that makes your sliding gate automatic is $700+, depending on several factors, like:
- Operator: The operator you choose, based on the brand, quality, and features, will impact the price you pay for the system.
- Gate specs: The size, shape, and weight of your sliding gate mean variations in costs. For example, a heavier or bigger gate will require a stronger motor, therefore typically costing more.
- Features: If your gate requires special features like sensors, keypads, or intercoms, these will add to the overall cost of the operator.
- Installation and labour: Some installations are simpler than others. Complex or difficult installations, such as those will terrain that’s harder to work on like a hill, may cost more due to labour hours and intensity. If power needs to be run to the gate location, this will also be an added expense.
There are several main costs when it comes to adding an operator to a swing gate, including the gate opener unit ($300+), the control board and add-ons ($100+), remote controls ($50+) and the labour ($300+). Again, all of these depend on the individual gate and needs of the client, so it’s important to reach out to BAGS for a quote.
