Automatic swing gates Sydney
Electric swing gates installed, automated, and repaired
Rapid designs, supplies, installs, automates, and services swing gates, also called swinging gates, for homes, strata properties, schools, and commercial entries. We assess your driveway, opening clearance, gate weight, safety requirements, and access controls before recommending the right system.
Swing gate options
Choose the swing gate style that fits the driveway
Swing gates work best when the site has enough clear opening space and the gate hardware is matched to the weight, slope, wind exposure, and access-control requirements.
Double swing gates
Best for: Residential driveways, prestige entries, and wider openings where symmetry and street appeal matter.
- Classic paired-gate appearance
- Useful for wider residential and strata entries
- Can be automated with remotes, keypads, intercoms, and sensors
Bi-fold swing gates
Best for: Tighter driveways, faster opening needs, and sites with limited swing clearance.
- Folds as it opens to reduce required clearance
- Keeps gate mechanics inside the property line
- Strong option where a full swing arc is impractical
Site assessment
Swing gate automation needs the right clearance, motor, and safety setup
The wrong swing gate setup can drag, catch on slopes, strain the motor, or leave the property harder to use. Rapid checks the details before specifying the hardware.
Driveway slope
Swing gates need enough clearance through the opening arc. We check slopes, kerbs, drainage, and ground levels before recommending a system.
Opening direction
Inward and outward opening gates have different safety, space, and compliance considerations. We assess both options on site.
Gate weight and wind load
The motor, hinges, posts, and safety devices need to match the gate size, material, and exposure.
Access controls
Swing gates can integrate with remotes, intercoms, keypads, RFID, magnetic locks, loop detectors, and safety sensors.
