Family Business Opens Doors to Security and Peace of Mind
When storms threaten Long Island or security concerns keep homeowners up at night, Ed Mojica and his team at Automated Gates and Shutters provide the protection families need. This family-run business has become a trusted name for residential and commercial gate operators and hurricane security shutters throughout Nassau and Suffolk counties.
Ed's journey to Long Island began early in life. "I moved to the United States from Colombia when I was 4 years old. I have been on Long Island and called it home ever since," he shares. Growing up primarily in Roslyn and attending Herricks High School, Ed built deep roots in the community that would later shape his business philosophy and approach to customer service.
The company specializes in reliable gate operators and opening systems, working with top manufacturers like LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Door King, and CellGate. Whether clients need residential driveway gates or commercial security systems, Automated Gates and Shutters handles everything from supply and installation to ongoing maintenance and repairs, ensuring that every system functions optimally.
Hurricane and security shutters represent another cornerstone of their services. The team installs various types, including roll-up shutters, accordion shutters, and retractable screens, all customized to fit any window or entrance shape. These shutters serve multiple purposes beyond storm protection, providing privacy, noise reduction, and insulation for year-round comfort, making them a versatile addition to any property.
What sets this business apart is its commitment to expert installation and service. Ed understands that gate operators and hurricane shutters require professional expertise to ensure trouble-free operation. His technicians bring decades of combined experience to every project, whether it's a simple residential gate opener or a complex commercial security system, ensuring that each installation meets the highest standards.
The family aspect of Automated Gates and Shutters adds a personal touch that resonates with Long Island homeowners. Ed and his wife have been married for over 35 years and raised two grown children. Now, the business is evolving into a multi-generational enterprise as Jessica and Anthony join the team. Ed shares, "My daughter Jessica and her fiancé Anthony began working for us 2 years ago and will be the next generation of our company- bringing fresh perspectives while maintaining the company's commitment to quality service and customer satisfaction.”
Ed's expertise extends beyond his primary business. As owner of Ed Mojica Installations, which holds top ratings from the Better Business Bureau, he brings extensive experience in garage doors, entry doors, storm doors, and related installations. This broad knowledge base enables Automated Gates and Shutters to offer comprehensive solutions for property protection and access control, ensuring that clients receive the best possible service.
The company's reputation speaks for itself through satisfied customers across Long Island. Ed takes particular pride in their online reviews, noting, "Our Google Reviews make us very proud.” These testimonials reflect the trust homeowners and business owners place in the team's expertise and reliability, highlighting the consistent quality of their work.
From their Farmingdale headquarters, Automated Gates and Shutters serves all areas of Nassau and Suffolk counties. The company offers free consultations and property evaluations, helping clients understand their options and choose solutions that fit both their security goals and budget constraints, ensuring that every client receives personalized attention.
As Long Island continues to face seasonal storms and security challenges, families like the Mojicas remind us that the best protection comes from neighbors who understand our community's needs. Their commitment to keeping local properties safe and secure, one gate and shutter at a time, exemplifies the kind of dedicated service that makes our neighborhoods stronger and more resilient.
