Sliding gate motors we sell
Choose by gate weight first, then features. A motor rated well above your gate weight lasts longer and runs cooler.
Best value with smart features: the Hikvision DS-K3GL606WX-WB (600 kg, Wi-Fi and app control).

Rack, rollers and safety beams
The motor drives the gate through a rack fixed along the gate. Count about one metre of rack per metre of gate travel, plus safety beams across the opening.
Every price here is our current store price. For supply and installation we visit the site first (free in Nairobi), then send an itemised quote: motor, rack or brackets, safety beams, remotes, cabling and labour.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a sliding gate motor in Kenya?
Sliding gate motors on this page range from KES 1,800 to KES 79,800. Most homes need a motor in the KES 50,000–100,000 range.
How do I choose a sliding gate motor?
Weigh up the gate (steel gates are heavier than they look), then pick a motor rated comfortably above it. Also decide if you want app control, battery backup and access control.
What else do I need besides the motor?
Rack along the gate, safety beams, remotes, and a power point near the motor. A battery or solar backup is recommended where power cuts are common.
Can you automate my existing sliding gate?
Yes, if the gate slides freely by hand on a straight track with good rollers. We check this at the free site survey and fix track problems first if needed.
