Sliding Autogate Damaged by Lightning | Tronica® 328 Sliding Motor New Installation in Old Klang Road, KL

Recently, our team from KL Autogate (EE Automation) was called to a house at Lorong Bandar 3, 3rd Miles Old Klang Road, Kuala Lumpur for a Tronica® 328 DC Sliding Autogate System installation.
This was actually a returning customer — we had installed the same Tronica® 328 sliding autogate system about 7 years ago, and it had been running smoothly without major issues.
However, after a recent heavy rain and lightning storm, the sliding autogate system suddenly stopped working. The customer also experienced damage to several electrical appliances at home due to the lightning strike.

Cause of Autogate Failure – Lightning & Electrical Surge

After checking with the customer, we found that the main issue was caused by a strong lightning surge, which affected the home electrical system.
The customer later improved the house wiring and installed proper earthing protection, as poor grounding was one of the main reasons the lightning surge affected multiple appliances, including the autogate system.
In most cases, lightning damage will affect:
• Autogate control board
• Receiver system
• Motor power system

Repair or Replace Autogate System?

Initially, the customer only planned to repair the system, as we still had spare parts for the Tronica® 328 model we installed previously.
However, after discussion, the customer decided to replace the entire system with a new Tronica® 328 DC Sliding Autogate System.
The main reason was simple — instead of repairing one part after another, the customer preferred a complete new system for better reliability and peace of mind.

New Tronica® 328 Sliding Autogate Installation Completed

We scheduled the installation on a weekend as requested by the customer.
Since Tronica® 328 DC Sliding Autogate System is ready stock, our team carried out a full replacement on-site.
The new installation includes:
• Oil bath gearbox system
• Autogate control board
• Remote control system (3 units provided)
• Backup battery system
• Transformer unit
After installation, the system was fully tested and confirmed to be working smoothly.
