Gate Automation in Palmerston North & the Manawatū

Looking to automate your gate, upgrade an old motor, or build something completely new? Automation Man has you covered. We offer a full-service solution, from the initial gate design right through to supply, installation, and ongoing maintenance.

We work with swing gates, sliding gates, and custom setups, whether you’re after a high-end entryway for your home or a secure, reliable system for a commercial site. We can even retrofit automation to most existing gates, saving time and cost.

Unlike many providers, we import European-made gate automation systems directly from Italy. That means top-tier quality with no middleman markup – and better support down the line.

Already have a system in place? We also offer repairs and servicing for most major brands.

Gate Automation

Need an automated gate system that just works, and keeps working?

Automation Man is your local specialist for gate automation in Palmerston North and the wider Manawatū, offering end-to-end solutions for homes, businesses, and rural properties.

Whether you’re starting from scratch or upgrading an existing setup, we make the process simple – from design and supply to installation, repairs and long-term support.

Full-Service Gate automation

We manage the entire job from start to finish, including organising any subcontractors needed (like trenching, cabling, power, fencing or concreting).

Our services cover:

  • New gate design and fabrication
  • Supply of all gate hardware and motors
  • Automation of swing, sliding and telescopic gates
  • Retrofitting automation to most existing gates
  • Underground or above-ground motor options
  • Hardwired or solar-powered solutions

No job is too big or too small – we can automate a residential gate, or set up a large-scale commercial access system.

Supply. Direct from Italy, built for NZ

We import high-quality gate automation systems directly from trusted manufacturers in Italy, cutting out the middleman and ensuring you get:

  • Durable, reliable hardware
  • Competitive pricing
  • Ongoing parts availability and support

Every system is backed by hands-on local support, and we only install gear we know and trust.

Installation. Done right the first time

Automation Man handles the installation of motors, control systems, sensors, and safety features with attention to detail and code compliance. We can also manage:

  • Power supply and cabling
  • Groundworks or trenching
  • Gate fabrication and mounting
  • Safety beams and manual overrides

We work with homeowners, builders, architects and commercial property managers to ensure every system fits the site and the client’s needs.

Maintenance & repairs

Already have an automated gate system? We service and repair all major brands, not just the ones we’ve supplied. Whether your gate is slow, unresponsive, or just needs a regular check-up, we’ll get it sorted.

We offer:

  • One-off callouts and fault-finding
  • Preventative maintenance plans
  • Battery and motor replacements
  • Sensor and access control upgrades

Retrofit gate automation

Want to add automation to an existing manual gate? In most cases, we can make it work. Our team can assess your gate’s condition and recommend:

  • Suitable motors and controls
  • Any structural adjustments needed
  • Cabling or solar options to suit your site

We’ll provide a no-obligation quote and a clear plan to get it done.
