Frequently Asked Questions
Which intercom brands does JD Gates install?
We install a range of intercom brands suited to different budgets and requirements. Our selection includes Centurion, Elvox, Commax, and GSM-based systems. We recommend the best option based on your gate motor, property layout and budget.
Can my intercom be connected to my existing gate motor?
In most cases yes. We connect the intercom trigger relay to the gate motor's trigger input terminal. Most modern gate motors (Centurion, ET Nice, DTS, Gemini) have a compatible dry-contact trigger input. We test this during installation.
Can I use a GSM intercom if I don't have internet at home?
Yes. GSM intercoms use the cellular network, not your home internet. As long as there is adequate mobile signal at the gate, the system will call your mobile phone when a visitor arrives — regardless of whether you have fibre or WiFi at home.
How much does intercom installation cost in Pretoria?
Intercom installation costs in Pretoria typically range from R2,000 to R8,000 depending on the system type, cable runs and number of indoor stations. Contact us for a free quote based on your specific requirements.
Can my intercom be repaired or must it be replaced?
Many intercom faults are repairable — including faulty wiring, blown fuses, damaged handsets, or corroded outdoor units. We diagnose the fault first and advise on repair vs replacement cost before proceeding.
