All of our door products will work hand and hand with access controls, while video surveillance monitors door activity. Parking decks/parking locations may require doors with access controls, pedestrian gates, and video surveillance, which will monitor activity on the premises or can be remote viewed. Our gating systems offer control access for entry/exit of a property, as well as our barrier arm products. Additionally, we offer a selection of parking control equipment, all of which is turn-key with Galaxy. Galaxy Gates literally provides an array of product lines and services.

Many factors can alter this answer. First, the measurements of a potential gate area, or how many lanes the gates will monitor, will establish size. Second, the choice between steel, aluminum, or iron products, and is the street appeal simple or ornate. Third, the weight of the gate panels, their length, and will the site allow for swing or slide gates, this also determines gate operators. Fourth, the frequency of the gates and their use (wear and tear) is a factor, in what type of gate operators will be used. As you can see, so many factors, and so many variables can apply. Galaxy Gate Systems will supervise your plans; offering the absolute best gating system customized to your needs.

As each system is custom made to your specifications, Galaxy will initially visit the site, take measurements, and do basic site work. From this point forward, full installation should occur within 3-4 weeks. More ornate and decorative gates might require longer fabrication. Galaxy works hand and hand with every client to provide a time schedule which will work within your parameters.

Yes, Galaxy can utilize your existing steel, aluminum, or iron gates. Based on the weight and length of each panel, we can provide a system that will work best for you. Please note: we will require power to be within 20 ft of the gate area (accessible by light pole etc..) in order to provide electrical service. If this is not available, you will need to make arrangements with your electrical company, so they may bring electrical service to the gate line. We can take it from there.

Yes, Galaxy provides the most up-to-date advanced technology. We highly recommend camera’s for subdivisions, apartment complexes, condominium locations, and townhome entrances. Camera’s can assist with legal issues which may occur due to theft, vandalism, or gate damage. Specific camera’s are capable of providing full details of license plates, which can assist police, or insurance companies, in tracking responsible parties.
