A gate is the finishing touch on a fence — and the first thing visitors see. Whether it’s a simple side gate or an automated sliding driveway gate with an intercom, it should be solid, smooth and built to match.

Tena Fencing designs, builds and installs custom gates across Newcastle — timber, Colorbond and aluminium slat — and fits quality automation, keypads, intercoms and remotes for a secure, convenient entrance.

FAQs

Gates & Automation — common questions

Can you automate an existing gate?

Often, yes — if the gate and posts are sound, we can fit automation to a suitable existing gate. We’ll assess it and let you know honestly.

What happens in a power outage?

Our automation includes a manual release so you can always open the gate by hand, and battery backup is available if you want the gate to keep working through an outage.
