YEARS
Family-run business
An ambitious and entrepreneurial guy founds a business, Tousek Gate Automation,
which developes from a simple one-man show to an internationally successful
and innovative company.
What can be better for such an entrepreneur and his enterprise than the
successive generation following in the footsteps of the founder, Mr Eduard
Tousek. This way the company - specialized in gate operators, barriers,
electronics and radio remote controls - is continuously supplied with fresh
ideas, thanks to one dautgher and three sons, and further enlarged and
improved due to this intensive cooperation.
The name „tousek“ , well-known in the relevant sector,
stands for innovative and quality products and is
gradually more and more familiar also to end users.
The international trade exhibitions help Tousek to
distribute their gate automation to the whole world.
That was also Mr Tousek´s goal, to achieve not only
a regional but also an international degree
of a awareness.

a great party with happy guests.

An operator is really advantageous, when it lasts three times
longer than cheap ones.
Thomas Fischer / Sales Manager
A nice day begins without a traffic jam on the
expressway.

…are the most valuable capital of each company, this is the reason
why we are consciously concentrating on long-term belonging
and permanent training. The consequence is a high level of
knowledge and experience of our employees and our customers
can feel it at any time. Team work and a strong sense
of cooperation – like in a big family- are not just words
but reality experienced day by day.
I really appreciate the direct
customer contact at my workplace.
Victoria Hölzl / Sales Administration
When I see a Tousek operator
on a gate, I can say proudly:
we have produced it!

The highlight of my day is
when I get a good idea!

Roland Hackl / External Sales Force
9 Storage
Since all our branches have their own and well organised storehouses,
we can quickly dispatch the desired products to our customers.
8 Completion
A correct installation is important for the proper operation.
For this reason we write and print the instruction manuals
of our products in-house.
Manufacturer
7 Exit control
Customer Needs
Before leaving our company every single
operator is subject to a detailed examination. This permits early identification
of potential faults and saves unnecessary
costs for our customers.
1
There are the customer wishes in forefront in
the beginning of every development.
We transpose these market demands
into innovation.
6 Manufacturing
2
Prototypes
The single components are finally joined
together to form the fi nal product.
The initial raw models are used for the simulation
of the required features. Thereafter comes the designing
of the housing as well as the production of a wooden model
in scale 1:1. And finally the 3D-prototyping, before assigning
the production of the needed tools.
Tests
3
5 Finishing
To recognise possible weak points we intentionally take our openers
to their load limits. We test their functionality on real gates and under extreme
conditions. The knowledge achieved during the tests flows immediately
back into the developement process.
In order to provide the highest level of quality,
also the finishing of raw casting pieces is completed
by our in-house machining centres.
4 Electronics
To guarantee a high quality level in every detail, also the control boards are developed
in-house. The developement teams for electronics and mechanics cooperate
constantly hand in hand.
Product-quality
TÜV-TEST
Our sliding gate operators Pull T as well as our swing gate operator Slim CLR have gone through the
initial test by TÜV Süd for EN 132 41-1 regulation underlying EN 12453 and EN 12445.
For a gate installation according to our specification with these operators, an active safety sensing
edge at the main closing edge is not applicable. Control book and test certificate for your gate
installation are available on our internet site.
Patent
Finally we became a widely recognized and well-regarded manufacturer on the market. This fact is
confirmed by the appreciation of our customers and everytime that the competition trys to copy us.
This is the reason why we protect the unique features that bring us technological advancement and
competitive benefits.
We are very proud of our patented sensor-system. With this unique sensor-system we adjust the
force and the self-learning end positions of our operators. An unbelievable amount of 6200 signals
are processed every minute. Although highly complex, it is simply constructed: without mechanical
components, which would be susceptible to faults and malfunctions and maintenance demanding.
During the development it was really important to us to create a system that would meet the increasingly stricter requirements relating to operating forces and, on the other hand, a fail-proof
operator with automatic adjustment for summer and winter conditions, able to regulate the force
in real time. Although many thought this was an impossible task, we´ve made it in the end.
Our
customers
We concentrate all our efforts and concerns on the success of our customers.
Business was made in the past, is made in the present and will always be
made in the future between people. That is why we always approach our
customers politely, helpfully, friendly and respectfully. We want them to feel
in trustworthy and competent hands.
Our future
is in the stars . . .
What does it mean?
a/ Our future will be bright like a starlight.
b/ Our future is written in the stars in astrological sense.
c/ The humans will finally conquer the universe, colonize other habitable planets and Tousek wants
to be part of it. Who else should open the gates of the new possibilities….
Which answer is correct ? . . none ! !
Instead, we prefer to keep both feet on the ground and further develope and improve our technology.
Actually this is the most attractive aspect of the whole thing: to combine the gained know-how with energy,
aspiration and enthusiasm to work and to steer toward the way of the never-ending innovations. As long as
we can rely on this kind of audacity in our company, we don´t need to be afraid of the future.
before
now
and in the future
The driver had to get out of his car to open the gate manually,
also under strong rain, snowstorm and in case of heavy traffic
density.
All passengers remain in the car. The gate gets opened, securely,
comfortably and reliably, by means of a Tousek operator. The
Tousek technology is taking good care of everything concerning gate automation.
We will be able to easily reach Mars or any point of the galaxy by a space ship. And things like
tousek-SPACEGATE, tousek-SPACE PORTAL, tousek-INTERDIMENSIONAL GATE,
tousek-ANTIGRAVITY OPERATOR will work entirely without radio or rolling code
just by tousek-TELEPATHY.
. . . how painful the world sometimes was
. . . how impressingly moving
. . . how disturbing for our new beautiful remote control
(Here there are no illustrations of the technology used because everything has been developed under the strictest secrecy.)
Our success
everything has to match . .
If you succeed only once, it might have been by chance.
If you succeed twice, you might have had luck.
If you succeed three times, it is definitively hard work
and industriousness.
proverb from Normandy
Unsuccessful people waste their time,
successful people use their time.
