Australia's home for residential and commercial gate solutions
At Gatemaster Australia, we specialise in supplying and installing automatic gates and motors across Perth. From our Maddington base, our local team delivers high-quality sliding, swing, cantilever and solar-powered gates built for reliability, security and everyday convenience.
As a locally owned and operated Perth business, we take pride in providing honest advice, quality products, and attention to detail that larger national suppliers can’t match. Whether it’s a new automatic gate, an upgrade to an existing one, or a replacement motor, we make the process smooth, straightforward and backed by genuine local service.
We offer both supply-only and full installation options — so you can choose what best fits your needs and budget.
Solar Gates: Power your entry without the wiring hassle. Our solar-powered gates are perfect for driveways where running electrical cabling isn’t practical or cost-effective.
Electric Gates: Our electric gate solutions are designed for both residential and commercial properties across the Perth metro area, in line with WA requirements.
Aluminium Gates: Lightweight, rust-resistant and built to last, our custom aluminium gates are a popular choice for Perth homeowners who want durability without compromising on style.
Sliding Gates: Ideal for sloped driveways or properties with limited swing space. They’re built for high-frequency use and long-term performance.
Swing Gates: Our swing gates are fitted with linear or articulated arm motors, they open and close effortlessly at the touch of a button.
Readymade Gates: Our readymade gates are available in a variety of styles and sizes available for immediate supply or installation.
Start with accurate site measurements and a quick assessment of the ground levels, driveway layout, and power availability. Decide whether a solar-powered or mains-powered motor suits your site best.
Consider the accessories that enhance safety and usability - safety beams, loop detectors, remotes, or keypad entry systems.
Choosing the right motor for your gate type is essential:
• Sliding and cantilever gates use geared drives with track or rail systems.
• Swing gates require linear or articulated arm motors for smooth operation.
Our team can help you select the right motor setup for your space and usage pattern.
Supply-only prices cover the gate and motor components but exclude foundation work, installation, electrical wiring or compliance checks.
Installation costs vary depending on driveway access, existing structures, and civil works required. For an accurate quote, arrange a site review and detailed estimate that includes your preferred gate model, automation setup and finish options.
Working with a Perth-based team means faster communication, easier coordination and responsive after-sales support.
To keep your gate running smoothly year-round:
• Regularly inspect tracks, rollers and hinges for debris or wear.
• Lubricate moving parts as needed.
• Test safety sensors and motor alignment periodically.
• For solar systems, check battery charge during low-sun months.
Although we don't provide servicing and maintenance services, we have an array or resources and helpful referral partners to help you keep your gate operating smoothly.
Protect your property with a custom automatic gate installed by Perth locals who take pride in their work.

Yes, sloped driveways are one of the most common situations we work with. Sliding and cantilever gates are particularly well suited to uneven ground since they don’t need to swing over the slope. We’ll assess your site and recommend the right gate type and motor setup for your specific layout.
Both are great options for driveways with limited swing space, but they work differently. A sliding gate runs along a track on the ground, while a cantilever gate is suspended and glides without touching the ground, making it better for gravel, uneven surfaces, or areas where debris could block a track. We’ll help you decide based on your driveway surface and usage.
Absolutely, solar-powered gates are ideal for this situation. If running mains power to the gate is impractical or expensive, a solar-ready motor with battery backup keeps everything running reliably. Perth’s sunny climate makes solar a dependable option for most properties.
In many cases, your existing gate can be automated without replacing it entirely. We’ll assess the gate’s condition, weight and structure to confirm it’s compatible with a motor.
Beyond the motor itself, the most popular and practical additions are safety beams, loop detectors, remote controls and keypad entry systems. These aren’t just convenient; safety beams and sensors are important for households with children or pets.
Our installers take care of the gate hardware and automation setup, but the mains electricity connection must be completed by your own licensed electrician in accordance with WA regulations.
Timelines vary depending on whether you're going with a readymade gate or a custom design. Readymade gates can move quickly, while custom aluminium gates require manufacturing time. Once we know your requirements, we’ll give you a realistic timeframe. Being a local Perth business means faster communication and fewer delays.
A supply-only package covers the gate panels and motor components. It doesn’t include installation labour, any civil or foundation work, electrical wiring, or compliance requirements.
Yes, it absolutely does. The motor needs to match your gate’s weight, width and how frequently it’ll be used. Swing gates use linear or articulated arm motors, while sliding and cantilever gates use geared drive systems. Over- or under-specifying a motor can lead to premature wear or poor performance.
