Get into the Swing of Things with SOMMER…


Can you imagine watching television without a remote control? It's hard to picture. And yet people still get out of their cars, walk to the yard gate, drudgingly open it, walk back to their car, drive through their gate, get out of their car and then run back to close it all before finally getting back into the car to park it?

Because of this daily early morning hassle, many people simply leave their gate open all the time, allowing anyone to access the property.

As you know there’s a much better way: with modern yard gate operators. A simple press of the button is all that is needed and the gate can fully open and close itself automatically.

These have long been affordable and quick to install, but with the surge of home improvements being planned over the whole Covid period, this has become much more widely considered by the general public.


Sommer has seen a huge surge in popularity of residential swing and sliding gate operators, and many garage door fitters who don’t like to venture too far down the driveway may be missing a trick. 

You could easily be maximising your profits by fitting garage doors and gate automation at the same time.

Safety legislation has come on leaps and bounds over the last ten years, ensuring that manufacturers are meeting the legal safety requirements and that fitters have all the information they need to safely install the products.

At SOMMER, safety and accident prevention is the highest priority. Operators such as the Twist range are equipped with dependable technology that complies with applicable standards.

Automatic obstacle recognition guarantees optimal protection, independently reversing when an obstacle is encountered, ensuring that people, animals and vehicles will not be trapped.

All SOMMER gate operators have been meticulously crafted and certified, and extensively tested at their facility, to guarantee longevity and results throughout long term use, regardless of the weather conditions.


Even in the event of a power failure, the easy to use SOMMER emergency release system allows you to manually open (release) and close (lock) the gate in any position.

So what’s stopping people from branching over into gate automation? The truth is, aside from an old fashioned mindset there really is nothing getting in the way of businesses expanding like this, and many businesses are already on board.

Smoothly incorporating gate automation into their repertoire, enabling them to up-sell their customers, cutting deals to automate both their garage doors and their gates at the same time.

The convenience doesn’t stop with the client, SOMMER operators have been thought out to the last detail, ensuring they are easy to install. 

Features such as the mains plug allow for testing without an electrician present and immediate use through the temporary power source.

SOMMER have a wide variety of gate operators, from swing gates to sliding gates right through to underground gate operators. Whatever your client needs, they have the answer.

So if you’re not on board already, why not give your SOMMER sales rep a call and see what other products we have that you could be profiting from?
