Who installs electric and security gates in Santa Cruz?
Eagle Automatic Gate & Door builds and installs electric driveway gates, steel security gates and sliding gates across Santa Cruz. We fabricate every gate in our own shop, automate it with a sized operator, safety sensors and access control, and repair existing gates, with a written price before any work starts.
Santa Cruz is hard on gates: salt fog near the coast rusts hinges, tracks and electronics, and homes in the redwoods and mountains face long gravel drives and power outages. We use galvanized and powder-coated steel, stainless hardware and sealed operator boxes, and add battery or solar backup where the power drops.

Santa Cruz gate questions.
Still not sure? Call us and describe what your gate is doing.
Do you install electric gates in Santa Cruz?
Yes. We build and install electric swing and sliding gates across Santa Cruz, with the operator, safety sensors, battery backup and access control.
Do you build security gates?
Yes. We build steel security gates for driveways, side yards and entries, with strong locks, anti-climb designs and, for walk gates, self-closing hinges and panic bars.
How do you keep gates from rusting near the coast?
We use galvanized and powder-coated steel or aluminum, stainless hinges and fasteners, and sealed operator boxes, and recommend periodic service in salt air.
Will my gate work when the power goes out?
With battery backup, yes. In the mountains and redwoods, we often add solar charging so the gate keeps working through outages.
Which gate opener brands do you work on?
We install and repair LiftMaster, DoorKing, HySecurity, All-O-Matic, Eagle Access Control and Maximum Controls (MAX) gate operators, plus Cellgate and DoorBird access systems and other major brands. We are also an authorized LiftMaster dealer with trained technicians.
How much does an electric or security gate cost in Santa Cruz?
It depends on size, material, the operator and access control. Every project starts with a free on-site estimate and a written price, and financing is available.
