Automatic sliding gates in Batumi: entrance, motor, pedestrian gate
We hang automatic sliding gates in Batumi on a cantilever beam: the leaf slides along the fence and needs no space in front of the entrance. For wide level entrances we build swing gates. The motor opens the gate from a remote and phone, photocells prevent collisions, and a battery or backup power helps during cuts. A swing gate without automation from 3 600 ₾.

Automatic sliding gates in Batumi: sliding or swing
A gate is chosen by the space in front of the entrance. Automatic sliding gates in Batumi are the most common choice: the leaf slides along the fence, needs no space in front of the gate and is not affected by wind when open. Swing gates are cheaper, but need a level area where the leaves can open, and on a slope or a narrow entrance there is often nowhere for them to swing.
| Type | What is needed | Where it fits |
|---|---|---|
| Sliding | A straight run of fence to one side, about one and a half openings long, and a footing for the beam | Most plots, slopes, entrances from the street |
| Swing | A level area for the leaves to open, strong posts | Wide level entrances, classic facades |
A sliding gate hangs on a cantilever beam and rollers, and the bottom of the leaf does not touch the ground, so snow, leaves and unevenness do not get in its way. The infill matches the fence: profiled sheet, louvres, railings or panels, more on fences on the fences page.
Automation and control
The motor opens the gate from a remote, a phone, on a call or by number plate. For an owner who lives in another country, this means letting in a courier, technician or guests from anywhere. The gate can be included in a smart home system: the outdoor lights come on when the gate opens, and the app shows who came in and when.
- photocells that stop the gate if a person or car is in the opening;
- a warning light while the leaf is moving;
- manual release of the motor in case of a fault;
- a battery in the motor or backup power so the gate opens during a power cut;
- a cable from the panel in a duct, laid before paving.
Without power a gate with an ordinary motor will not open, so in the suburbs and mountains we connect it to backup power or fit a motor with a battery.
Pedestrian gate and intercom
The pedestrian gate goes next to the vehicle gate or within it, with an electromechanical lock and closer. The video intercom door station hangs by the pedestrian gate, the call comes to a monitor in the house and to your phone, and the lock opens with a button in the app. Cables to the pedestrian gate, door station and entrance cameras are laid together, more on the low-voltage systems page.
Wind, salt and upkeep
A solid gate leaf by the sea catches the wind like a sail. For such gates the motor has power in reserve, and the beam and posts are designed for wind. The frame, beam and rollers are galvanised, the fixings stainless steel. Once a year the gate is inspected: rollers lubricated, photocells and remotes checked, fixings tightened. If the gate is on a road used by trucks, we fit bollards at the posts.
How much gates cost
A swing gate up to 3.5 m with infill and posts, without automation, costs from 3 600 ₾. A sliding gate up to 4 m with frame, infill and cantilever beam, without automation, from 6 000 ₾. Sliding gate automation with remotes and phone control from 3 360 ₾, swing gate automation with two motors from 2 820 ₾. A pedestrian gate with electromechanical lock and closer from 1 620 ₾, a video intercom with door station and gate lock from 1 920 ₾. The final cost is set after measuring the entrance and an agreed estimate.

Local specifics in Batumi
In many areas of Batumi and its suburbs the entrance to a plot slopes and the street is narrow. Swing gates often have nowhere to open there and hit the incline. Sliding gates run along the fence and the slope does not bother them, so on slopes we almost always fit them. Sliding needs a straight run of fence to one side, which we allow for when building the fence.
In the suburbs and mountains the power goes off after storms and wind, and a gate with an ordinary motor will not open then. So we fit motors with a battery or connect the gate to the house backup power. By the sea the rollers, beam and fixings are galvanised and stainless: salt quickly eats ordinary steel.

Questions and answers
How much do automatic sliding gates in Batumi cost?
A sliding gate up to 4 m without automation costs from 6 000 ₾, and automation for it with remotes and phone control from 3 360 ₾. A swing gate from 3 600 ₾, its automation from 2 820 ₾. The final cost is set after measuring the entrance and an agreed estimate.
Sliding or swing: which to choose?
If there is a straight run of fence beside the entrance about one and a half openings long, a sliding gate is more convenient: it needs no space in front and is not affected by a slope. Swing gates are cheaper and suit wide level entrances where the leaves have room to open.
Will the gate open if the power goes off?
With an ordinary motor, no, so we fit a motor with a battery or connect the gate to the house backup power. In any case the motor has a manual release: the leaf can be opened by hand. We show how at handover, and leave the release key with the owner and the manager.
Can the gate be opened from a phone in another country?
Yes. The control module connects to the internet, and the gate opens from the app. Together with a video intercom and cameras you see who has arrived and let in a courier, technician or guests. Every opening is saved in a log, and access can be granted temporarily and later revoked.
How should a gate by the sea be looked after?
Once a year inspect and lubricate the rollers, check the photocells, remotes and fixings, and touch up chips on the frame. In winter after storms, clear sand and debris from the tracks. If the leaf starts to move heavily, we check the rollers and beam first, not the motor.
