The Phoenix Elite Standard

We ONLY install Heat-Shield certified commercial motors rated for Arizona conditions

Continuous Duty Motors

Not "residential-grade" toys. We install industrial operators rated for 10,000+ cycles and continuous operation in extreme heat. Built for commercial use, priced for homes.

Sealed Gearbox Design

No exposed gears that collect dust and debris. Sealed metal gearboxes with high-temp synthetic lubricant rated to 300°F. This is why our motors last 15+ years while cheap ones fail in months.

Solar Gate Options

Arizona gets 300+ sunny days. Solar eliminates trenching costs and works during monsoon power outages. We use oversized panels and lithium batteries for reliable 24/7 operation.

The Bottom Line: Big box openers cost $400-$600 but fail quickly in Arizona heat, requiring replacement every 1-2 years. Our commercial motors cost $1,200-$2,000 installed but last 15+ years. You save money long-term and avoid emergency repair headaches.

Solar Gate Systems

Arizona is perfect for solar gates. With 300+ sunny days per year, solar systems charge fully year-round and eliminate the need for trenching electrical lines.

No Trenching Required

Save $800-$1,500 on electrical work. Solar mounts directly to the gate post.

Works During Power Outages

Monsoon power outages? Your gate keeps working with battery backup.

Lithium Battery Systems

We use high-capacity lithium (not lead-acid) for 5+ years of reliable service.

Frequently Asked Questions

Commercial-grade continuous duty operators are essential for Arizona. We recommend LiftMaster LA500/LA400 or Viking M2/M3 series. These motors have sealed gearboxes, high-temp capacitors, and thermal protection. Avoid residential-grade "Big Box" openers which fail within 6-18 months in Phoenix heat.
Professional installation ranges from $1,200-$3,500 depending on gate size and motor type. This includes the commercial-grade operator, installation labor, wiring, safety sensors, and programming. Solar systems add $800-$1,500. We provide detailed quotes with no hidden fees.
Solar is excellent for Arizona - we have 300+ sunny days per year. Solar eliminates trenching costs, reduces electric bills, and works during power outages. Best for gates without existing power or remote locations. We use high-capacity lithium batteries and oversized panels for reliable operation.
Most installations are completed in 4-6 hours. Simple swing gate replacements take 3-4 hours. New sliding gate installations with trenching take 6-8 hours. Solar systems install faster (no electrical work needed). We typically schedule installations within 1 week.
Yes! We retrofit motors onto existing gates regularly. We assess your current gate structure, hinges, and balance to ensure compatibility. Some older gates may need reinforcement or hinge upgrades to handle automated operation safely.
LiftMaster and Viking motors include manufacturer warranties of 3-5 years. Our installation labor is warranted for 1 year. We also offer extended service plans that cover parts, labor, and maintenance for up to 5 years.
