Gate Motors
Integrating Gate Motors with Intercoms and CCTV
Guidance only. Verify any statutory or insurer requirement against current official South African sources. CapeCore does not publish unverified legal claims.
One opening, one story
The visitor presses the intercom, you see a face, you release the motor, the gate opens, photocells hold it, CCTV records the event. If those pieces are bought separately and never commissioned together, the release button may pulse too short, or the camera may point at the hedge.
Pulse length and auto-close
The intercom relay must match what the motor expects. Too short and the gate never starts; too long and it reverses. This is set on site.
Where the camera sits
A dedicated view of the pedestrian at the panel plus a wider view of the vehicle is more useful than the tiny intercom camera alone.
CapeCore commissions the entrance
We install motors, intercoms and CCTV so the household or guardroom has one routine. Call 021 755 1648.
