McIntosh Island, Gold Coast

A modern three-story white house with horizontal layers, large windows, and glass balconies stands behind a manicured lawn with shrubs. The number "121" appears on the front wall. Dark clouds loom overhead.

Like an iceberg, the real story of this McIntosh Island project is what you don’t see.

Featuring a 420kg single sliding gate with no visible welds or fittings, mounted on custom steel framing engineered to carry the impressive weight, while maintaining clean sightlines and whisper-smooth operation.

This is the kind of custom gate project that required a crane to install but looks like it simply… appeared.

When vision meets execution

With Willemsen Architecture and Burleigh Constructions collaborating on a signature residence, the gate can’t be an afterthought. It needs to match the vision, the execution, the attention to detail that defines the entire project.

That’s where Alpha Gate Automation came in: a custom two-sided panel design, vertical slat pedestrian gate, integrated security intercom with video and keypad entry – all engineered to feel inevitable rather than installed. Because when you’re working alongside this calibre of design and construction team, “good enough” isn’t in the vocabulary.

Engineering disguised as elegance. 10% Visible, 100% Extraordinary.
