As gate automation specialists, we take on the whole job, including coordinating fencers, landscapers, electricians and concrete workers, so you have one accountable point of contact rather than several trades to chase.

CAS holds the private security licensing required for security work in New Zealand, Andrew has completed Ajax training, and we are accredited for the intercom brands we supply.
