3 Gate and Fence Panel options - continued. CUSTOM MADE GATES AND PANELS Custom made gates is where we all started. Working primarily with steel and wrought iron in the days before we had extrusions and laser cutting everything was custom made. Our branches in the capital cities all have production facilities for custom made gates in steel and aluminium including laser cut designs. From the smallest of pedestrian gates to the largest industrial and cantilever gates our workshops can produce to your specifications. We have a range of popular designs to choose from or share your ideas with us for an obligation free quote. Where Readymade and Easy Gate have their restrictions Custom Gate has none. If you can draw it or explain it we can probably make it. See them here Enquire here gates@automaticsolutions.com.au LASER GATES AND PANELS Laser panels can be incorporated into both Easy Gate and Custom Gate with ease. Laser cutting has become more affordable of recent times which has led to an explosion of ideas and creativity in the gate and fencing panel world. The days of all you can have is a picket fence or tube with spears on is gone and now you can add your own personal touch to your property entrance. Whether it is residential, corporate or community group you can add your own personal welcome. Automatic Solutions perform all of their laser cutting in house providing quality control, expertise and affordable solutions. Laser cut sheets can be from a range of materials with the most common being aluminium, mild and galvanised steel, stainless steel and for that very Australian look the rusty Corten steel. Each cutting can be flat sheet style for fixing to existing structure or gate framework or we can produce a double fold to the edges providing and angle edge all round for direct fixing between piers, posts etc. See them here Enquire here gates@automaticsolutions.com.au

12 Easy Gates & Panels Explained Easy Gates and panels were originally introduced primarily as a do it yourself product (DIY) to service the hundreds of thousands of regional customers with no access to our fabrication facilities. The emphasis was a high quality product that could rival custom made with easy assembly, easy transport and a reasonable price. Well like all good intentions this one has found its way from DIY into the professional market and beyond. The fact that a trade installer can order a gate to size, easy transport to site and easy assemble in a couple of hours all for a much lower cost than custom made has increased the product range to include many standard designs and now Custom Easy Gate. WHAT MAKES UP AN EASY GATE? Easy Gate is designed as an economical way to buy gates and fence panels for your property. Each gate or panel is individually cut to your sizes and provided with the necessary hardware and fasteners to assemble. For example a standard fence panel will typically be supplied with side channels, slats and fastener covers all cut to size as well as fixings for the channels and the slats. If you can use a drill and a pop rivet gun you are on your way! If you were to order a sliding driveway gate kit you would receive all of your main framework, corner braces, infill sections and fastener covers cut to size and ready to assemble along with your fasteners. In addition you would receive all of your hardware and automation. Things like track, wheels, guide rollers, motor, remote controls etc. WHAT ARE EASY GATE KITS MADE FROM? Aluminium. All gates, fence panels and infill are made from durable aluminium in powder coat finish. Section weights vary dependent on their role. For example the main gate frame is our heaviest section and the insert slats are much lighter. IS THERE A CHOICE OF AND DESIGNS? Start to turn the pages and you will see just how many designs are available but that is not all as we are quite happy to build your gate to your design. We call it Custom Easy Gate. Colors? One of the main advantages of Easy Gate is the ease of using different colors. For example you may want a different main frame color to the infill color with Easy Gate this is no problem WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT FRAME TYPES? Essentially we have the heavy and robust driveway gate frame designed for big gates up to 6450mm wide, a smaller and lighter frame which we use for large infill panels and pedestrian gates and finally the frameless standard infill panels that simply use a system of side channels and covers. ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION INFORMATION NEXT PAGE

13 Easy Gate Assembly & Installation DO I HAVE TO ASSEMBLE AND INSTALL MYSELF? That is entirely up to you. Although Easy Gate is a DIY product we all know that not everyone has the skills or inclination to take the job on. Plenty of choices thankfully depending on where you live. In and around our branches and agents they will happily quote assembly and install and if you live outside these service areas enlist the services of a local handyman or tradesman. ANY GUIDES ON MEASURING AND INSTALLATION? Sure we have a number of installation, assembly and measuring guides on our website.

61 Custom Easy Gate explained. WHAT IS CUSTOM EASY GATE? Every installation is different and the chances that a standard Easy Gate design will not do the job is high so we turn to custom Easy Gate. It is not hard to do simply let us know during your enquiry that for whatever reason the standard designs will not suit and you want a price for custom Easy Gate. You still get all of the advantages of Easy Gate but with your own custom improvements. You might simply have your own design ideas. Want a custom laser panel insert. Odd shape or cut out like the photo above. (Did you notice the use of two colors?)

62 Custom Gates & Panels WHAT EXACTLY IS A CUSTOM GATE OR PANEL? Basically any gate or panel that is designed and built completely from scratch at any one of our workshops around Australia. GENERAL - Automatic gates need to be built robust and tough enough that they can withstand the rigors the automatic systems will subject them to. This often surprises some people but it is true that to open and close your gates in a variety of environments conditions the automation produces some fairly impressive torque for such small motors and exert a lot of pressure on the gate. So our gates need to be robust. ALUMINIUM VERSUS STEEL? - Over the years we have seen aluminium and steel take prominence at different times in the gate market but usually as a result of price. Aluminium tends to get shunned when the raw price of aluminium rises. There is a natural assumption that aluminium is maintenance free which is not strictly true as aluminium without regular care will deteriorate and corrode just like anything else but it is fair to say that as a general rule aluminium requires less maintenance than steel. However steel has it's advantages given its weight and strength and you will not find too many industrial gates built from aluminium. Personal choice should take place but always check with your consultant about the use and environment before making a decision. CONTINUED NEXT PAGE

63 WHY DO WE LIKE WEIGHT? - One of the reasons the motors are deigned to produce so much power is that they are designed and built in Europe (Italy). The Europeans have always built gates that are solid wrought iron style - not necessarily big in stature but heavy. It is not uncommon to see a pair of gates that may only be 1.5 metres wide each but up to 3 metres tall and weighing 500kg each. The motors are designed to open these big heavy gates. When we build lighter tubular style of gate that is popular in Australia the natural assumption is that this can only be good but in fact the automation has a tendency to "throw around" light weight gates. So as a consequence where possible we don't mind some weight because it makes for a smooth gate and adds to long term reliability. WHAT ABOUT SIZE DOES IT REALLY MATTER? - We think so. A gate tends to be a fairly large item no matter where it is installed and in general will always look better with some heavy sections lending some dimension to the size. This of course is purely personal choice as there are plenty of examples of small slight sections used in some very impressive gates. If you are considering things from a security viewpoint however there will be no substitute for size and of course design. In the end it will come down to the objective of the gate and the aesthetics desired but we find that gates with larger sections tend to look more the part WHAT IS THE STORY ON THE GROUPS - Group one through to group seven is simply our way of categorising our gates from a pricing perspective. In general terms group one, four and sometimes five can be the most economical with things getting a little more expensive as you work your way through group two and three. Group seven being true wrought iron is around the top level in price and group six is industrial style gates. But the reality is that these are purely a guide and you may find a group three gate that you want made as full wrought iron or maybe you like the style but want to keep the cost down. There are often ways to accommodate so simply use them as guide. CUSTOM LASER CUTTING NEXT PAGE

64 What is laser cutting? GENERAL - "Laser cutting" is a generic term we use today to describe a gate or panel that has been cut in a decorative way. Whilst laser cutting is a specific process there are a number of variations of laser itself as well as plasma and water jet cutting. WHY DO WE CHOOSE WATERJET? - Water jet cutting uses a stream of very high-pressure water (40,000 psi and higher) and abrasive particles called garnet to machine a large array of materials, including heat-sensitive, delicate or very hard substances. The resulting cut is both clean and accurate to a tolerance of 0.025mm. Unlike Laser or Plasma, the cold stream does not create hardened edges. Many materials cut well using the water jet, among these are all metals and alloys, plastic, rubber, stone, ceramics and glass. ALUMINIUM VERSUS STEEL? - Most of what we cut with waterjet is aluminium or steel and the choice is really personal preference with consideration given to weight, environmental factors and of course desired look. Other finishes available are stainless steel and "Corten" which is a weathered or "rust look" form of steel. SIZE LIMITATIONS? - There are two limitations to size with any form of laser cutting. The first is available sheet size and the second is the machine bed size. Rarely is this an issue however as multiple panels tend to be used for overall stability in any case. WHAT STYLE CAN I HAVE? - If you can draw it we can cut it. There are some practicalities that come into play however and you are best to discuss your ideas with one of our consultants for guidance. One of the most difficult concepts to get your head around whilst designing is whether you are using the cut out section or losing the cut out section. If you don't want to go to the trouble or expense of your own design you can choose from the many standard designs available.

65 Custom Group 1 GENERAL GROUP1 is our lightweight range of gates and panels using round 16mm diameter tube as the main infill. Very popular for many years and still today although challenged by the emerging aluminium slat style. Group 1 can be produced in both steel or aluminium. Typical manufacturing uses 50x50 sides and top rail with 100x50 bottom rail. Infill tends to be 16mm round tube or 19mm round. FINISH Usually prime and powder coat for steel or chromate and powder coat for aluminium.

66 Custom Group 2 GENERAL GROUP2 is our medium weight tubular range of gates and panels using round 25mm square SHS tube as the main infill. Group 2 can be produced in both steel or aluminium. Typical manufacturing uses 50x50 sides and top rail with 100x50 bottom rail. Infill tends to be 25mm square tube or 19mm round. FINISH Usually prime and powder coat for steel or chromate and powder coat for aluminium.

67 Custom Group 3 GENERAL GROUP3 is our heavyweight tubular range of gates and panels using round 25mm square SHS tube as the main infill. Group 3 can be produced in both steel or aluminium. Typical manufacturing uses 50x50 sides and top rail with 100x50 bottom rail. Infill tends to be 25mm square tube. FINISH Usually prime and powder coat for steel or chromate and powder coat for aluminium.

68 Custom Group 4 GENERAL GROUP4 is a range of driveway gates and fence panels which is basically a main frame, followed by a supporting sub frame designed to allow the fixing of the customers infill. These gates and panels can be designed to have the main frame showing or hidden behind the infill. Steel or aluminium Typical manufacturing uses 50x50 sides and top rail with 100x50 bottom rail. Infill can be customer supplied or laser cut panels. FINISH Usually prime and powder coat for steel or chromate and powder coat for aluminium.

69 Custom Group 5 GENERAL GROUP5 is a range of driveway gates and fence panels which is basically a main frame, followed by a supporting sub frame designed to allow the fixing of aluminium slats. Frames are normally made from aluminium but steel is an alternative if extra strength or weight is required. Typical manufacturing uses 50x50 sides and top rail with 100x50 bottom rail. Infill is typically aluminium slats in powder coat or woodgrain finish. A range of louvre options are also available FINISH Usually prime and powder coat for steel or chromate and powder coat for aluminium.

70 Custom Group 6 GENERAL GROUP6 is an industrial range of gates comprising much heavier sections, often very large gates and also often incorporating cantilever hardware. Designed and built to be functional and tough but not particularly pretty to look at. Typical manufacturing uses 75x75 sides and top rail with 125x75 bottom rail. Infill varies from high security mesh to palisade security pales etc. FINISH Hot dip galvanized is the main finish but prime and powder coat is also an option.

71 Custom Group 7 GENERAL GROUP7 gates and panels are the heaviest and most labour intensive. They use mostly solid sections as the infill and tend to be highly decorative. Typical manufacturing uses 50x50 sides and top rail with 100x50 bottom rail. Infill is normally decorative solid sections like scroll work and twisted bar. FINISH Hot dip galvanized is the main finish but prime and powder coat is also an option.
