Automation

Save the hassle of braving the wind and rain or extreme heat when entering or exiting your property by automating your driveway gates.

All of our gate designs can be manufactured to accommodate automation. We can supply you with an automation kit that has everything you will need to complete the job!

Jackal Fencing is proud to supply the Nice Home Range of gate automation products, which is suitable for most LOW duty cycle residential properties. The drive units and accessories have been specifically designed for the residential DIYer and are easy to install.

SELECTING THE RIGHT MOTOR

Things to consider when selecting a gate motor for your new Jackal manufactured gate:

  • Is your gate larger than the manufacturers recommendations for length and weight?
  • Is your driveway sloping?
  • Will your gate motor be used more frequently than for “normal” residential use?

Please consider carefully, the motor type required for your needs, as the responsibility of the selected gate motor lies with the installer, as this is part of the site assessment and the overall needs of the property owner.

If you have any questions regarding the most appropriate gate automation for your next project, please contact us and provide all of the site details, as our supplier of gate automation has an extensive range available to suit any application.

Nice Home automation is covered by a 2 year manufacturer’s warranty. With the exclusion of batteries, this covers the automation for parts only, and applies to any fault which is directly related to the manufacture of the actual product.

The warranty does not cover motor failure, as a result of unsatisfactory installation and/or applications where the unit has been installed outside of the manufacturer’s specifications. Nor does it cover motor performance issues resulting from environmental factors, misuse or vandalism.

Long term reliability

NiceHome automation and accessories are tested every day in the Nice laboratories according to strict criteria. To ensure compliance with the strictest safety requirements on the market, NiceHome guarantees the highest possible technological and quality standards.
All kits have a 2 year warranty.

Professional quality

Designed and manufactured in Italy, NiceHome automation benefits from unique Italian know-how combining top performance with an essential style to adapt perfectly to the needs of your home.

Comfort at your fingertips

NiceHome solutions offer simplicity and flexibility. By adding an NiceHome receiver you can operate a garage door and other automated devices with NiceHome remotes.

Compatible with solar power

The Solar Kit solar power system removes the need to connect your NiceHome automation to a power supply connected from your home.
Solar systems require a position free of shade. Careful consideration of the gate’s location is essential before deciding to install a solar powered gate.

Versatility in full simplicity

The complete NiceHome range enables you to find the most suitable solution for your needs. You can optimise the installation and add an extra touch to the design of your home with the additional accessories. NiceHome automations are compatible with original Mhouse accessories.
