Control Access With a Motorized Gate
Automatic gate installation in Denver that adds security, convenience, and modern appeal to your property.
You want to control who enters your property in Denver without having to manually open and close a gate every time you leave or return home. An automatic gate system gives you that convenience while also adding a layer of security and a polished, modern appearance to your driveway or entrance.
Foxy Exteriors installs automatic gate systems that include motorized openers, safety sensors, and access control options such as keypads, remotes, or smartphone integration. Whether you are installing a swing gate or a sliding gate, we handle the electrical components, safety features, and any local code or permit requirements to ensure the system operates reliably and meets Denver area regulations. Gates are built using corrosion-resistant materials that stand up to snow, ice, and freeze-thaw cycles, and we design systems with proper drainage to prevent water buildup that could damage the motor or hardware.

Components and Features That Make the System Work
Your automatic gate installation in Denver begins with an evaluation of your driveway, gate type, and access control preferences. We install weather-rated motors, obstruction sensors that stop the gate if something is in the way, and wiring that is sealed and protected from moisture. Swing gates require hinges and clearance space, while sliding gates need a track and roller system that stays clear of snow and debris.
After the gate is installed, you will notice how much easier it is to enter and exit your property without stepping out of your vehicle, and how the automated system deters unauthorized access by restricting entry to people with a code, remote, or app-based control. The gate opens and closes smoothly, and the safety sensors prevent it from closing on vehicles, people, or objects.
We coordinate all electrical work, sensor calibration, and testing to ensure the gate operates correctly and safely. The installation does not include landscaping, driveway repairs, or gate materials if you already have a gate in place that needs automation added. You are responsible for seasonal maintenance such as clearing snow from the track or hinges and checking battery backups if included. Once the system is active, you have a secure, automated entry point that adds property value and convenience.
Common concerns before installing an automated system
Before scheduling an automatic gate installation, most homeowners want to know how the system handles Denver's weather, what access control options are available, and what kind of maintenance is required.
What is the difference between a swing gate and a sliding gate? A swing gate opens inward or outward on hinges and requires clearance space, while a sliding gate moves horizontally along a track and works better for driveways with limited space or steep slopes. We help you choose based on your property layout and gate material.
How does an automatic gate handle snow and ice in Denver? We install weather-rated motors and sealed components that resist moisture and freezing temperatures. You will need to clear snow from the track or hinge area during winter to prevent obstruction, and the gate should be tested periodically to ensure sensors and motors are functioning correctly.
What access control options are available? You can choose from keypads, remote controls, smartphone apps, intercoms, or vehicle sensors depending on how you want to manage entry. We install and program the system so authorized users can open the gate easily while keeping others out.
Will the gate work during a power outage? Most automatic gate systems include a battery backup that allows the gate to open and close several times during an outage. We can also install a manual release mechanism so you can operate the gate by hand if needed.
How much does automatic gate installation cost in Denver? Cost depends on the gate type, material, motor system, and access control features you choose. Permits, inspections, and electrical work may add to the total, but the investment improves security, convenience, and property value over time.
