Mark M. Cirillo started out in the entry gate industry in the early 1980s in Florida, working with a large fencing contractor. By the late 80s, Mark relocated to Southampton, New York. Upon his arrival, he quickly realized his connection in his love of creating beautiful things, a natural artistic talent for drawing and the need for quality, custom high-end residential entry gate design for the discerning client.
In June of 1990, possessing ambition, a strong work ethic and incredible attention to detail, Mark knew it was time to establish AutoGate Systems, Inc.
Over the last 21 years, Mark has built AutoGate System’s success on several factors – his unique hands-on, personal approach being one of them. Mark believes that a driveway entry gate is the “New Front Door,” and as such, it should have a stunning impact, as well as long-lasting durability. That is why he personally oversees each and every project that is fabricated in our Westhampton Beach shop. Mark has been known to go above and beyond the call of duty for his clients, providing them with the highest quality craftsmanship and service available on the East End.
We are proud to collaborate with only the most reputable architects and builders, both in NYC and Long Island, to ensure a beautiful visual flow between home and gate. This is just a small part of what has built Mark’s successful “word of mouth” business and supports his excellent reputation for quality work.
On the technical side, Mark uses a unique installation application, integrating a particular gate design, the applicable gate operator, gate frames and support posts, and fabricating them as a complete unit.
- We take all factors of each individual project into consideration from concept to completion: The client’s needs (security, privacy, animal control, etc.)
- Environmental conditions and climate (ocean-side vs. bay-side, winds, frost heave, etc.)
- Property elevation (flood zones, etc), maintenance, usage (full/part-time residence, etc.)
- Town / village codes, budget, aesthetics and personal taste
An AutoGate SYSTEM is then created, producing a beautiful end result that brings decades of stunning elegance, security, privacy and reliability to the client’s home.
Autogate Systems has been directly and exclusively focused on automatic entry systems since 1984. That’s over 25 years of experience! We know what it takes to make sure you’re happy with your driveway security gates!
