All our interactions and experiences with BMGI have always been positive. The team are extremely helpful, both in sales and after sales service. We have purchased a few different items from BMGI over the last 5 years, and have always had good relations and service from the girls and guys. We highly recommend both the products and service from BMGI to anyone wanting a good quality auto gate system. Thanks BMGI!

Absolute legends for after sales support. I ran into an issue of my own doing, they took the time to not only talk me through it via messenger, but send short how-to videos to match what I was doing. Couldn't be happier. They even passed the sense of humour check when I sent an AI image of my entire gate on fire (while I waited for the rain to stop) which got a laugh after a brief moment of terror. Worth it.

Our solar-powered DACE gate drive stopped operating, with a suspected low battery voltage. Called BMGI Brendale and spoke with Grant, who very kindly and patiently over the phone explained how the drive motor worked and confirmed the battery should be replaced. He said he had a fully charged battery available and when I collected the new battery, Nicole explained how to fit and connect the new battery. Thank you so much Nicole and Grant for your kind help. Great people!

I bought a single swing solar gate opener from BMGi about 6 years ago and it’s been a solid bit of gear. The price was good at the time, and the quality has held up well. In that time it’s needed very little maintenance. The only real issue was the main bearing recently failing, which I’d say is fair after that long. Every time I’ve dealt with BMGi, the staff have been easy to deal with. They explain things clearly without overcomplicating it, which makes a big difference when you’re trying to sort something yourself. I’ve recommended them to a few friends and family over the years and they’ve all had similar experiences. Would definitely recommend them if you’re looking for a reliable setup from a family-run business.

I recently installed two 2.6 metre aluminium gates and paired them with two TMT 400LLS swing sate openers. As the gates open towards the road I used the push to open brackets that allowed me to have the openers and electric gate lock inside the gates. The openers come with a manual that is well written and comprehensive and gave me confidence in installing them myself. The end result is great. The customer service from Nicole and Grant was first class. Highly recommend BMGi.

We have the BMGi solar powered single swing gate mechanism with a wired push button for guest access mounted inside of fence rail. The whole system has worked faultlessly for 6 years and will continue to do so, all quality materials. Misplaced the keys that locks/unlocks the push button. Contacted the office and Nicole has arranged for new keys to be posted out. All resolved within an hour, excellent service, highly recommend.

Nicole knows her job, I went it there looking to buy a complete new circuit board and her knowledge of the systems saved me hundreds of dollars. I've had my gate for almost 15years and no problems Nicole got me the part to fix it for $50. Brilliant service

Absolutely amazing customer service. We moved into a house that had a BMG gate installed 10 years ago that had stopped working, and Barry talked us through how to fix it saving us from having to buy a new setup or parts. It's rare to find a company that has such great support and products and we would highly recommend BMG gates to anyone!!

When you receive great service, you should be acknowledged. Nicole was most helpful from my initial enquiry all the way through to the sale and after sales and provided guidance on installation of the motor. The videos in the support page were brilliant and easy to understand which assisted in the installation of the motor. Grant also assisted with some technical enquiry that I required. First class service, product purchased was what they said it was and did. I highly recommend BMGI and can't speak highly enough of both Nicole and Grant.

I have lived on the land all my life. Having electric gates is a God send especially when moving livestock around on your own with a dog. Having these quality gate openers are what makes a good or not so good day for us farmers.Over the past 31 years I have had multiple electric and solar farm gates on my property. Those set ups were ok to good until I found BMGI gate systems. WOW these guys and their products are a game changer. The product quality is exceptional but the after sales Customer Service is impeccable. THANK YOU Grant for always being on the phone for me. I'm a female and do all the work myself so I had the odd challenge. Your honesty and encouragement is wonderful. All my property solar gates are being changed over to BMGI gate openers. Thank you Grant and Nicole for your on going service and support. 10/10 . Will be back for more. Cheers Kell

I spent a lot of time researching automatic gates online and eventually came across BMGI's website. The reviews looked very positive so I ordered one of their E8 farmgate solar swing kits. It was easy to install and works brilliantly. It has only been in use a couple of weeks so time will tell how well it lasts but I am confident that it's a long term investment. A good, solid product. A follow up after a year has passed. It's still as good as the day I installed it. Couldn't recommend these gates more :)

The long distance remote is fantastic. My house is on a dense bush block at least 450m away from the gate(in a direct line). I can now open the gate while standing in my house. I’m stoked! I was given great advice and support from BMGi right from initial enquiry to purchase. One very happy customer!

Great Experience with BMGi. Response time was super fast. Nicole was an absolute pleasure to deal with and so helpful and knowledgeable, ensuring I had everything covered for my DIY sliding gate motor install as well as any subsequent enquiries I made during and post install of the motor. Products were packaged well and promptly sent. If their service is as good as I got at all times then I can highly recommend.

We highly recommend this company. Not only their solar powered gate opener system is an excellent product, but after 12 years when the receiver was no longer responding to the remote, Barry spent several days on the phone (sometimes up to 30mn) walking me through on how to troubleshoot the problem. It would have been so easy for him to just recommend buying a entire new system, instead he narrowed down the problem to the receiver. His patience and clear instructions were second to none. Again, thank you so much for your help.

Big shout out to Barry for going the extra mile in after sales service. After giving us five years of trouble free operation our double swing gate opener experienced a malfunction requiring technical support from BMG. I rang on a Saturday expecting to be told to ring back on Monday however Barry proceeded to troubleshoot the problem immediately and after some toing and froing, was operating normally. This type of service is rare in this day and age. Full marks Barry, With thanks Brian and Deb.

WOW the customer service I received yesterday was top class! I left a message for someone to call back as I needed to reset our gates and within half an hour I was talking to a wonderful lady ( I'm sorry I cant remember your name) who helped me through the process. The gates are now working perfectly. I have not experienced customer service like that for I don't know how long. THANK YOU !!!! I totally recommend BMG - their product and customer service. thanks Sue

Brilliant, super fast service, honest advice. I can’t thank them enough for their honesty, technical support and service. 10/10 for the technician. I took our gate motor in after our gate was hit by a car and knocked to the ground on top of the motor. I thought it was a write off, but they got back to me within a few hours to say it was fixable and the price was cheap. Their integrity and honesty saved us a fortune and we will always go back to them and we highly recommend them to anyone. Hard to find anyone so honest in these times

We bought a gate opener from BMGI , and not only has the product represented great value for money, but after-sales service has been exceptional. This is the true mark of a great company. Everyone I’ve spoken to has been helpful, and they’ve always delivered what they promised. The opener has endured years of the harsh Aussie weather and has been very reliable, as well as adding a feeling of security to our property. Thanks BMGI!

We have had a few issues with our solar gate opener - most due to my poor installation technique but one or two due to component problems. I cannot fault BMGI's after sales service in each case - prompt answers to questions, fast turnaround on repairs, frugal costings and useful hints over the phone when required. I would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

BMG supplied me with their 2 x gate opening kit at a very affordable price. The products seem robust and once I installed them they've been working perfectly. I found their installation manuals to be overly complex (lost 1 star) but their phone support was exceptional. Would definitely recommend BMG and would purchase from them again.......Great products and excellent support!

What a fantastic company! Purchased my gate opener & received the product within a couple of days. Posted from Queensland to the mid North Coast of NSW. My son with the help & advise from David installed & wired the opener. David was always available by phone for any guidance or just to reassure that the installation was on track. He provided a friendly knowledge service. Congratulations & thank you for the outstanding customer service. Highly recommend this product and company.

Had a problem with my gate opener that was installed by the previous owners. Found BMG's phone number on the gate controller. Rang and spoke with Barry. He was professional and extremely helpful and within a few hours, under his guidance, my gate is now functioning correctly. He went above and beyond my expectations and I will certainly use his services in the future.

I've purchased a sliding and a hinged automatic gate opener from BMG and have found them both to be affordable and very capable machines. Everyone I've dealt with at BMG has been helpful and knowledgeable and when my slider was serviced it was dealt with promptly and professionally at a very affordable price. If you are looking for an automatic gate opener I'd highly recommend BMG for price, quality and customer service.

A year or two back brought my auto gate opener from BMG imports, they were great to deal with then talking me through the model that would suit my needs, and what’s prompted me to leave a review now was I had a problem with the gate and I checked all the basics and couldn’t resolve the issue myself so I gave them a call and Kelly was so nice and helpful talkinh me through how to diagnose the issue and we got it sorted in minutes. You just don’t get customer service like this these days. Thanks A lot

I knew what I wanted in a gate closer and then started doing my research. Was not impressed with the cheap units (or the expensive ones!) on ebay and I am Always cautious about buying Technical products on that forum because of the total lack of support. The Italian units are frighfully expensive and the American units do not rate well in the reviews for the money you have to pay. There was ONE system that stood out from the crowd in the Amazon reviews - the system that BMGi sells. After a brief discussion with the BMG staff, I took advantage of the EOFY sale and purchased a single gate solar system for a 4.2m farm gate. The system arrived 4 days later and I installed it myself in a matter of hours. The quality of the components is impressive and there was nothing else to purchase - it is a complete system. I had two occasions where I needed technical support and it was provided within minutes. The control board on the gate closer developed some "strange behaviours" over the next week and I reported this to the BMG staff. After a couple of diagnostic tests performed by me whilst on the phone to BMG, I had a new control board delivered two days later at no cost to me. The gate works a treat now. BMGi backed up their product and supported me the whole way. As I always try to do - stick with a local. It is well worth it in the long run. You will NOT get this type of service on ebay. Well done BMGi. I highly recommend the company and their products. I declare that I am in NO WAY affiliated or associated with BMGi.

Update: Gates are working great and have not missed a beat since installation almost 2 years ago. I have added a light and electric lock. 100% quality.

I'm not very technical and have no experience with this, but after receiving advice from BMG, I received my E8-500 single electric gate motor kit about a month ago and installed it (it came pre-wired) on a Saturday morning. Installation was easy and instructions very clear. Questions were answered promptly and the gate works perfectly. I added a 12V gate lock and wireless entry and exit buttons and all seems to be of high quality. Highly recommended !

Hi There, I just want to say thank you for the great service, both on the day we visited the showroom, and the phone help also. After installing the swing gate opener, very easy to do, I had a small issue you helped with over the phone. The instructions supplied where clear and concise and easy to follow. After a few minor adjustments our gate swings perfectly and has a solid open and close position. I have no trouble in recommending you, and in fact have already, to three potential purchasers. So in closing thank you, and you have an extremely happy customer.
Best regards,
Kyle & Leanne Chamberlain Thirlmere NSW

Bought Gates off them 3 years ago and they offered a great service then, more importantly I went back to them recently with a problem I had created and they treated me just as well as they do a new customer purchasing new gates. Really good product, good price and great service

Lubricating the E8 Actuator

Lubricating the E8 Actuator Arm

To lubricate the mechanical screw, we recommend using R44 Lubricant.
We recommend purchasing this product from your local Jaycar Electronics - click link here

Then you’ll need to do the following:

Have the arm at full extension (longest)
Remove arm from gate bracket
Lift arm so it’s facing up to the sky
You’ll then need to locate the drainage hole at the bottom of the arm, see below image (this is the only one you’ll use)

Now have the spray nozzle inside the hole
Trigger the arm to start shortening and start spraying the lubricate inside while the arm shortens
Once the arm is at its shortest, stop and reattach to the gate
Now activate the unit and see how it goes

Holding the arm upright is important to allow the lubricant to go down to the bearing.
