DofyGate

We have developed a stand alone gate for use on farms or privater residences. Securely fixed but easy and simple to install.

We're a team of designers and engineers, brought together by Jim Alston, working to develop our unique product called the ‘DOFYGATE’ - which stands for Driver Operated Field and Yard Gate. The gate will keep stock in while allowing vehicle access without the need to get out of the vehicle. A solar powered battery driving an ultra efficient system (6 milliamp consumption) allows this gate to work t

hroughout the year. No wires so no need to dig anything up. Everything you need to put the gate in place comes in the box.

DG1 – our first generation.

Barrier No 0020

Originally built for controlling livestock, with one clear aim in mind—helping keep both farmers and animals safe.

It’s great to see that even now, it’s still doing the job it was built for.

And looking at how far we’ve come—now building DG4—it’s a reminder of where it all started

Our barriers can do many things 🚧
Designed to control access, this setup allows lorries to slow down and stop so wheels can be washed and disinfected—helping prevent the spread of germs and supporting strong biosecurity. By managing vehicle entry, we help protect sites and keep operations running safely 🦠

We’re pleased to say our CCTV system is now fully installed on our barriers as an option.

This is something we’ve been working on for a while, and it’s great to finally have it up and running on our road closures. The system helps improve safety, security, and monitoring — and the best part is it can be used anywhere, not just on roadworks
