Our story

It started with an apprenticeship.

Guil’s first job, back in 2007, was as an apprentice working on electric gates. From 2009 to 2014 he worked for several gate companies in France, covering maintenance, troubleshooting, repairs and new installs, some of it for companies that maintained more than 3,000 systems between them.

From 2014 to 2018 he ran his own gate business in France. In 2018 he moved to Perth on a sponsored visa and worked as a technician at a well known Perth automatic gate company, right through to 2022.

In 2022 he went out on his own and founded Op’n Close Systems. No garage doors, no alarms, no chasing every job under the sun. Just electric gates, done properly, for people across Perth who want something that will still be running in ten years.

We are not the cheapest, and we have never tried to be. We are the bloke you call when you want it done once and done right.

Meet Guil

The bloke who shows up.

Guil is the owner, the quoter, and the one fitting your gate. Over 20 years in gate automation, from an apprenticeship in 2007 through years in France to running Op’n Close Systems since 2022, means he has seen every brand, every failure mode, and every shortcut that comes back to bite people a year later.

He is straight with you about what a job needs and what it does not. If a repair will get you another five years, he will tell you. If it is time to replace, he will tell you that too, and quote it honestly.

“With over 20 years of experience, I know gates inside and out, and I built OP’N CLOSE SYSTEMS around doing the job properly.”

What we stand on

Four things we won’t budge on.

In Guil’s own words: “We stand for doing things properly: quality products and workmanship, honest advice and reliable service. We want our customers to feel confident knowing their gate is in good hands.” By concentrating only on gates, we can provide a higher level of knowledge, service and support.

Our charity partner

Backing clean water in Tanzania.

Since 2025, Op’n Close Systems has made a set monthly contribution to Water for Africa, a WA charity working on clean water projects in the Mufindi District of southern Tanzania. Guil met the founder through his own church, and hopes to increase the contribution as the business grows.

  • Guil, the owner. He quotes the job and he fits the gate. Op’n Close Systems does not use subcontractors, so the person you meet at the quote is the person doing the install.

  • The business has been trading since 2022, but Guil has over 20 years in electric gates, starting as an apprentice in 2007 and working across France before settling in Perth.

  • Yes. We carry public liability insurance to $10 million. Our ABN is listed above, and we are happy to provide our certificate of currency in writing before any work starts.

  • Yes, and on purpose. No garage doors, no standalone intercoms, no alarms. Gates and gate automation are the whole business, which is exactly why we are good at it.
