Underground Swing Autogate System – A Well-Known System from 20 Years Ago
Underground Swing Autogate System – A Well-Known System from 20 Years Ago
The underground swing autogate system was one of the most popular auto gate systems 20 years ago. Many people installed these systems because they were reliable and efficient at the time. However, over the years, technology has improved, and now newer systems offer better performance and durability.
If you’re still using an old underground swing autogate and it’s starting to show signs of wear, like the motor gearbox getting damaged from water, it might be time to consider a replacement. Constant repairs can end up costing as much as installing a new system, so it makes sense to upgrade.

Why Not Repair the Old Ground Type Auto Gate Motor?
In our experience, when one part of the underground autogate breaks, it’s often followed by more problems in other parts. For example, if one motor fails, the other may soon break as well. The repair costs often add up to the price of a new system. So instead of dealing with endless repairs, why not switch to a modern, reliable system?

Swing Autogate Installation Damansara
Broken Doormex Autogate Gearbox in Kota Damansara
We recently helped a customer in Kota Damansara whose underground swing autogate had started to fail. The left side was weak and only opened halfway, causing inconvenience every time it was used. After nearly 15 years with a Doormex underground swing autogate, the customer decided not to repair it anymore and asked us to install a new system.
We found that the gearbox was severely damaged, with broken gears. Since the system was beyond repair, we recommended replacing it with a Tronica® 828 Stainless Steel Arm Autogate. After installing the new system, it worked perfectly with smooth, reliable operation.
Switch to the Tronica® 828 Stainless Steel Arm Autogate System
While the underground swing autogate was a popular choice decades ago, most people have now switched to the more modern swing arm autogate systems.

We provide professional installation services to make sure your new system works perfectly from the start, ensuring peace of mind for years to come.
