Automatic door and shutter systems

Some locksmith services are requested urgently to get us out of a tight spot, and others — like the one presented here — serve to make life easier at home or in business while also improving security.

Automation systems eliminate unnecessary effort, such as raising and lowering shutters or opening heavy sliding or garage doors. These are actions we perform every day without ever thinking they could be avoided with a simple motor system.

In the same way, an automatic door system improves security. For example, on garage doors in detached and semi-detached homes, it lets you open and close without getting out of your vehicle.

Automatic door and shutter system installation in Tarragona.

Automatic shutters

This is the most common automation system: automatic home shutters, installed on any window, since the motor fits in the top box that all windows have — making it almost universal.

When automating a home shutter, we take measurements, supply the motor and carry out the complete installation, until your shutter is ready to go up and down effortlessly.

Automatic shutters can be activated in several ways: via a wall switch next to the window, via a remote control connected to the motor (operable from anywhere in the room), or — the latest option — via a smartphone app, which even allows remote operation so you can prepare the temperature of your home before you arrive.

Automatic doors

The other most requested automation service is door automation — whether interior doors, gate or garage doors. Garage doors are especially popular, since manually operated garage doors in semi-detached properties can be a real headache. We carry out all services not only for private residences but also for commercial and industrial premises. Ask us and we will explain everything you need to know.

Garage door automation is straightforward: we simply install a small motor and connect it to the control box and the desired door, leaving it ready to operate with a remote control.

Frequently asked questions about automatic door systems

What types of automatic door systems do you install?

We install automation systems for garage doors (tilt-up, sectional, sliding and swing gates), communal entrance doors, fences and parking barriers. We work with brands such as Came, Faac, Nice and Somfy.

Can you repair my garage door automation system?

Yes. We repair all types of faults: burnt-out motors, control boards, photocells, limit switches, racks and belts. If the fault affects a part that is no longer available, we assess replacing the complete motor unit.

How often should an automatic door system be serviced?

We recommend an annual service. This includes lubricating guides and gears, checking thrust forces, verifying safety photocells and adjusting limit switches. Preventive maintenance avoids costly breakdowns and extends the motor's service life.

Does the automation system work during a power cut?

Modern automation systems include manual release via an emergency cable, which allows the door to be operated manually. Some models include a backup battery that allows several operating cycles during a power outage. We advise you on which option best suits your situation.
