Self-Contained Heavy Vehicle Boom Gate Skid for Large-Scale Access Control

The MTGA HV Boom Gate Skid is a solar-powered, self-contained access control unit built to manage heavy vehicle traffic on mine sites and large commercial operations. Four 120Ah deep-cycle AGM batteries and a rotating 415W solar panel deliver six days of battery redundancy off-grid, enough to keep the gate operational for extended periods without attention. At approximately 1,000 kg with a ruggedised heavy-duty skid, it handles off-road conditions and repositions when site access requirements change.

Move it into position, turn it on, and you’re controlling traffic. Trigger it remotely by vehicle-mounted switch, key card or handheld fob. RFID automates access for registered vehicles, ultrasonic sensors handle detection, and the IP66-rated power cabinet and waterproof battery box keep the electronics protected from dust and moisture.

Available to purchase or hire.

Why Choose This Product

Six Days Battery Redundancy, Off Grid

Four 120Ah deep-cycle AGM batteries and a rotating 415W solar panel deliver six days of battery redundancy. On remote mine sites where someone isn't on hand to troubleshoot, that margin matters.

Three Trigger Options

Access can be triggered by vehicle-mounted switch, key card or handheld fob, whichever suits your site's workflow. RFID automates access for registered vehicles, and the connected in-vehicle control system logs per-vehicle entry and exit for a full access record.

Rotating Solar Panel

The 415W solar panel rotates to track available light, particularly useful on sites where the skid can't always be oriented optimally. More consistent power input means more consistent battery charge across longer deployments.

No Trenching, No Cabling, No Civil Works

Fully self-contained with onboard solar and battery power. No connection to mains, no ground penetration, no site disturbance. Position it, power it on and it's operational.

10m or 12m, Which Boom Length Do You Need?

The 10m boom suits most heavy vehicle access points and dual-lane site entries. The 12m is the right call for wider haul roads, multi-lane entries or access points where extra clearance is needed for wide loads. If you’re not sure which suits your setup, our team can advise based on your site layout.

Engineered Around Your Needs

Boom length, battery capacity and configuration can all be customised. A trailer chassis is also available for operations that need the gate to move frequently between access points. Talk to our team about what your site needs.
