Gonzales Electric Gates: Company does just one thing, and they do it well

There are plenty of priorities competing for your attention on any given day, but the protection of your family and assets supersedes pretty much everything else.

Fortunately, near 100-percent protection is achievable, accessible and affordable for the home and business owner in the Baton Rouge area. A customized electric gate can provide the protection you need, while preserving, or even adding, to the value of your property. “A security camera doesn’t prevent a thing; it merely videos the people that just robbed you blind,” says Rod Braud, owner of Gonzales Electric Gates. “A gate prevents people from even getting on your property.”

And thanks to new technologies, today’s gates can do more for less. Nearly 75 percent of installations have some level of smart integration, and many incorporate live video feeds. “Smart home integration with live feed video intercoms is becoming increasingly popular,” Braud says. “It enables the homeowner to view a person at their gate, and they can operate their gate from literally anywhere. It’s also becoming much more cost effective.”

Business owners are also attracted to the expanding capabilities of the modern gate, particularly those who have sites that are unmanned and need to be remotely controlled, sometimes from across the country.

The reliability of such technology has improved significantly in recent years, and now with the availability of wireless point-to-point transmission capabilities, a gate can be controlled from literally miles away.
