Timber Gates
We offer a range of timber gates to suit your fence including ethically sourced and eco friendly timber options, that can be seamlessly fitted to custom-made aluminum or steel frames.
Powder Coated Gates
When it comes to adding the perfect finishing touch to your house and fence, powder coating is the ideal choice. Our powder coating process offers a much stronger and more durable finish compared to conventional paint
Sliding Gates
Sliding gates can be designed to open and close on a floor track or be counter-levered over a driveway, maximizing the available space. Our sliding gates are designed to handle a large amount of weight, ensuring durability and reliability.
Automatic Swing Gates
Swing gates are a perfect choice when space is limited on either side of the gate opening. Unlike other gate types, traditional swing gates do not have wheels, enabling them to be easily operated manually or through electronic gate openers.

Automated Gate Frequently Asked Questions
What maintenance do automated gates require?
To keep your automated gate running smoothly and avoid costly repairs, we recommend servicing your gate every 6 months.
For coastal areas like the Mornington Peninsula, where exposure to salt air can speed up wear and tear, more regular servicing may be needed, especially for beachfront or exposed properties.
Typical maintenance includes:
- Cleaning tracks or hinges
- Lubricating moving parts
Checking and testing safety sensors - Inspecting the motor, remotes, and control systems
- Ensuring battery backups (if installed) are functioning properly
- Ant and insect control (one of the biggest killers of motors)
Regular maintenance not only helps prevent breakdowns but also extends the life of your gate and automation system.
Can my existing gate be automated?
In many cases, yes, existing gates can be automated if they are in good condition and suitable for motor installation. Our team can assess your current gate to see if it’s compatible or if any upgrades are needed to support automation safely and effectively.
How long does it take to install an automated gate system?
Installation time can vary depending on the gate type and site access, but most gate automation installations across the Mornington Peninsula are completed within 1 to 2 days. More complex systems or custom setups may take a little longer. We’ll always provide an estimated timeframe as part of your quote.
How do automated gates work during power outages?
Many automated gate systems can be fitted with a battery backup, allowing your gate to operate even if the power goes out. Alternatively, most motors come with a manual release mechanism so you can still open and close the gate by hand if needed.
Do you provide intercom or remote access systems?
Yes, we offer a range of access control options, including wireless remotes, keypad entry, intercom systems, and smart technology that lets you operate your gate via your phone. Smart gate systems are a popular choice for Mornington Peninsula homes and businesses looking for extra convenience and security.
What areas do you service?
Foreshore Fencing provides automated gate installation and servicing across the Mornington Peninsula, including areas like Mount Martha, Mornington, Dromana, Rosebud, Rye, and surrounding suburbs.
