"Gate motor packed up on a Sunday night. Technician was on-site within 40 minutes, had the Centurion board on the van, and we were back up and running before bedtime. Absolute pros."
— Nadia P., Bryanston
About us
A specialist team, not a call centre.
Sandton Gate Motor Pro was founded to fix a very specific problem: too many Johannesburg homeowners were being sold new gate motors when a repair would have done the job — and being charged callout fees for technicians who never turned up. We built a small, tightly-run team of licensed gate automation specialists who do things differently: honest diagnostics, firm quotes before work starts, genuine manufacturer parts on the van, and a written 12-month workmanship warranty on every job.
We're based in Sandton and work daily across Sandton, Randburg, Midrand and Centurion. We know the streets, we know the estates, and we know the brands — Centurion, ET Nice, Gemini, Hansa, DTS and BFT — because we work on them every single day.

"Replaced our ancient Hansa motor with a Centurion D5 and rewired the intercom on the same visit. Neat work, transparent pricing, warranty in writing. Rare in this industry."
— Reggie M., Rivonia
"Backup battery had died and I didn't realise until load-shedding hit. They dropped in a new battery, tested the whole system, and even reset our remotes. Highly recommend."
— Thandi K., Fourways
"Installed access control and intercom at our complex. Project managed properly, cabling done cleanly, and residents were briefed on how everything works."
— David L., Sandton CBD
"Safety beams kept tripping in the wind. Diagnosed a wiring fault the previous 'expert' had missed. Fixed for good, honest pricing, and they cleaned up after themselves."
— Ilona S., Morningside
"ET Nice motor was humming but not moving. Sheared pinion — they had the part, replaced it, and it's smoother than when it was new. Ten out of ten."
— Sipho N., Midrand
